Why Choose the Pizzato FS1896D024-FM2 Safety Interlock Switch?
The Pizzato FS1896D024-FM2 is a robust safety switch with separate actuator and guard locking, engineered for industrial machinery where controlled access and operator protection are essential. As part of the proven Pizzato FS series, it ensures that safety guards remain securely locked until safe operating conditions are achieved.
Built with a durable technopolymer housing and a rotating head, this safety switch is designed for long term reliability in harsh industrial environments. Its integrated solenoid locking mechanism prevents access to hazardous areas while machinery is in operation, supporting compliance with modern safety standards.
This version operates on a 24 V AC/DC supply and includes a 1 NO + 1 NC contact configuration actuated by the solenoid. It uses the D working method, meaning the actuator remains locked when the solenoid is de-energised, ensuring fail safe operation. The M2 variant features M20 threaded conduit entries for industrial cable management.

- Separate actuator system for machine guarding.
- 1 NO + 1 NC solenoid driven contacts.
- 24 V AC/DC operating voltage.
- Rotating head for flexible mounting orientation.
- Positive opening contacts for safety compliance.
- Three M20 threaded conduit entries for secure installation.
Advanced Guard Locking for Industrial Safety
Safety interlock switches with guard locking, such as the FS1896D024-FM2, are essential in applications where hazardous motion must be fully stopped before access is permitted. The integrated solenoid locking mechanism ensures that guards cannot be opened during operation, significantly reducing risk to operators and maintenance personnel.
The D working principle ensures fail safe behaviour by keeping the actuator locked when power is removed. This is critical in emergency situations, ensuring machinery cannot be accessed until it is safe.
Typical Applications
- Machine guard doors requiring controlled access.
- Packaging and processing machinery.
- Automated production lines and robotics.
- Material handling and conveyor systems.
- Industrial safety interlock systems.
- OEM machinery and automation systems.
