Why Choose the Pizzato FP9R2-L20 Safety Limit Switch?
The Pizzato FP9R2-L20 is a heavy-duty safety limit switch with manual mechanical delay, designed to ensure controlled stopping and safe access in industrial machinery. Manufactured by Pizzato Elettrica, it is engineered for high-integrity safety systems where machinery must fully stop before access is permitted.
This model features a manual mechanical delay of approximately 20 seconds, ensuring that hazardous motion has completely ceased before the safety contacts are released. It is particularly suitable for high-inertia systems such as conveyors, rotating equipment and heavy industrial machinery.
Designed for use with a separate actuator, the FP9R2-L20 forms part of a robust key-operated safety interlock system. Its durable construction and reliable switching performance make it ideal for demanding industrial environments requiring consistent safety compliance.
Key Advantages
- Manual mechanical delay for controlled and safe machine stopping.
- Approx. 20 second delay ideal for high-inertia applications.
- 2 NC positive opening contacts for high safety integrity.
- Heavy-duty industrial construction for long service life.
- Reliable integration into safety interlock systems.
- Supports compliance with EN ISO 13849-1 safety standards.
Key Features
- Pizzato FP9R2 series safety switch.
- Manual mechanical delay function (20 s variant).
- Designed for use with separate actuator systems.
- 2 NC slow-action contacts.
- Positive opening safety contacts.
- High mechanical endurance and switching reliability.
- Industrial-grade enclosure for harsh environments.
Controlled Safety Interlocking for High-Inertia Machinery
The FP9R2-L20 safety switch is designed to prevent access to hazardous areas until machinery has completely stopped. The integrated delay mechanism ensures that safety contacts remain engaged long enough for moving components to come to rest, significantly reducing the risk of injury in industrial environments.
With its dual NC positive opening contacts, it provides enhanced safety redundancy, making it suitable for modern safety circuits where reliability and compliance are essential.
Typical Applications
- Heavy machinery with long run-down times.
- Industrial conveyors and material handling systems.
- Rotating equipment and processing machinery.
- Automated production lines.
- Safety interlock systems with extended delay requirements.
- Access control in hazardous zones.
