FP 9R2-L20F7M2 Pizzato Safety switch with manual mechanical delay
Pizzato FP 9R2-L20F7M2 is an IP67 separate-actuator safety switch with an approximately 20-second manual mechanical delay, two normally closed slow-action contacts, an F7 actuator and an M20 × 1.5 cable entry for controlled access to guarded industrial machinery.

Why Choose the Pizzato FP 9R2-L20F7M2 Safety Switch with Manual Mechanical Delay?
The Pizzato FP 9R2-L20F7M2 is a safety switch with manual mechanical delay and separate actuator designed for machine guarding applications where hazardous movement may continue after a stop command. Part of the Pizzato FP series, it combines guard-position monitoring with mechanically delayed actuator release for machinery with a predictable run-down period.
The L20 mechanical-delay mechanism provides an approximately 20-second delay before the guard actuator can be released. This allows additional time for residual movement to cease before access to the protected area, providing a mechanically controlled alternative to electrically powered guard-locking systems for suitable applications.
The FP 9R2-L20F7M2 uses a 2 NC slow-action contact configuration and an F7 separate actuator. Its durable technopolymer FP-series housing provides IP67 protection, while the M2 configuration incorporates an M20 × 1.5 threaded cable entry for integration with industrial machine wiring.
Key Advantages
- Combines guard monitoring and mechanically delayed access in one device.
- Approximately 20-second manual mechanical delay for machinery with residual run-down movement.
- 2 NC slow-action contacts for safety-related guard monitoring.
- Separate F7 actuator for installation on movable machine guards.
- Mechanical timing principle avoids the need for an electrically powered solenoid to generate the delay.
- IP67 protection supports installation in demanding industrial environments.
- M20 × 1.5 cable entry provides a standard industrial wiring interface.

Controlled Guard Access for Machinery with Run-Down Time
The Pizzato FP 9R2-L20F7M2 is intended for machinery where hazardous motion does not disappear immediately when a stop command is issued. Its manual mechanical mechanism introduces an approximately 20-second delay before the separate actuator can be released, helping prevent premature opening of the associated protective guard while residual movement is running down.
Because the timing function is mechanically generated, the delay does not depend on an electrically energised locking solenoid. The combination of a separate F7 actuator, slow-action safety contacts and robust FP-series enclosure makes the FP 9R2-L20F7M2 suitable for appropriately designed safety systems on machinery with a known and consistent stopping time.
Typical Applications
- Rotating machinery with predictable run-down periods.
- Industrial machine tools and machining equipment.
- Mixers, shredders and processing machinery.
- Packaging and production equipment.
- Automated manufacturing machinery with guarded hazardous areas.
- OEM equipment requiring mechanically delayed guard access.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Pizzato FP 9R2-L20F7M2 used for?
The Pizzato FP 9R2-L20F7M2 is used for machine-guard monitoring with mechanically delayed access, particularly on machinery where hazardous movement continues for a predictable period after a stop command.
What is the delay time of the FP 9R2-L20F7M2?
The L20 mechanism provides an approximately 20-second manual mechanical delay before the separate guard actuator can be released.
What contact configuration does the FP 9R2-L20F7M2 have?
The FP 9R2-L20F7M2 uses a 2 NC slow-action contact configuration for integration into an appropriate machine-safety circuit.
What actuator does the FP 9R2-L20F7M2 use?
The switch is configured with an F7 separate actuator, which is installed on the movable machine guard and engages with the switch when the guard is closed.
What protection rating does the FP 9R2-L20F7M2 provide?
The FP-series technopolymer enclosure provides IP67 protection, supporting installation in demanding industrial environments.
What cable entry does the FP 9R2-L20F7M2 use?
The M2 configuration incorporates one M20 × 1.5 threaded cable entry for connection to the machine wiring system.
Does the FP 9R2-L20F7M2 require a solenoid to generate its delay?
No. The approximately 20-second delay is generated mechanically, so an electrically powered solenoid is not required to produce the timed release.
