Why Choose the Pizzato FR593-D5K21 Safety Switch?
The Pizzato FR593-D5K21 is a heavy-duty safety switch with separate actuator, designed for reliable machine guarding and industrial safety applications. As part of the established Pizzato FR series, it ensures safe operation by detecting guard position and interrupting control circuits when access points are opened.
This model features a D5 actuator configuration combined with a K21 connector interface, providing flexible installation alongside fast and secure electrical connection. The separate actuator mechanism ensures that opening a guard disengages the actuator, forcing the safety contacts to open and immediately stopping machine operation.
Constructed with a durable technopolymer housing and designed for long mechanical life, the FR593-D5K21 delivers dependable performance in demanding industrial environments. With an IP67 protection rating, it is suitable for use in applications exposed to dust, moisture and vibration.

- Reliable safety switch with separate actuator for guard monitoring.
- Positive opening contacts ensure safe circuit interruption.
- D5 actuator configuration enables stable and secure engagement.
- K21 connector allows quick and secure wiring.
- Compact and durable design for industrial environments.
- Prevents machine restart when guards are open.
Key Features
- Pizzato FR series safety switch.
- Separate actuator (D5 type) for guard interlocking.
- K21 connector interface for efficient installation.
- 1 normally open (NO) + 1 normally closed (NC) contact.
- Snap-action switching mechanism.
- Positive opening NC contact for safety circuits.
- Technopolymer housing with high mechanical resistance.
- IP67 protection rating for dust and water resistance.
Reliable Guard Interlocking for Industrial Machinery
The FR593-D5K21 operates by separating the actuator from the switch body when a guard is opened. This forces the positive opening of the safety contacts, ensuring machinery stops immediately and cannot restart until the guard is securely closed.
Safety switches with separate actuators are essential components in modern industrial safety systems, helping protect operators, reduce risk and ensure compliance with machinery safety regulations.
Typical Applications
- Machine guarding and safety interlocking systems.
- Industrial automation and production lines.
- Conveyor systems and material handling equipment.
- Packaging and processing machinery.
- Robotics and automated manufacturing systems.
- OEM machine building and safety integration.
