Why Choose the Pizzato FS2898D120-F3 Safety Interlock Switch?
The Pizzato FS2898D120-F3 is a heavy-duty safety interlock switch with solenoid locking, designed for secure guard monitoring and controlled access in industrial machinery. As part of the robust Pizzato FS series, it delivers dependable performance in demanding automation and safety-critical environments.
This version features an F3 jointed actuator configuration, allowing adjustment in two directions for greater installation flexibility. This makes it particularly suitable for machinery with complex guard alignment requirements where precise positioning is essential.
Operating on a 120 V AC/DC supply with a de-energised locking (fail-safe) principle, the FS2898D120-F3 ensures that the actuator remains locked in the event of power loss. Its IP67-rated housing, positive opening contacts, and auxiliary release function make it ideal for harsh industrial environments.
Key Advantages
- Reliable safety interlock switch with solenoid locking.
- Fail-safe locking when de-energised for maximum protection.
- F3 jointed actuator adjustable in two directions for flexible installation.
- Durable construction for harsh industrial environments.
- Prevents unauthorised access to hazardous machinery.
- High mechanical durability for long service life.
Key Features
- Pizzato FS series safety switch.
- Model: FS2898D120-F3.
- Separate actuator with solenoid locking.
- F3 jointed actuator adjustable in two directions.
- Working method D: locked actuator when de-energised.
- Contact configuration: 1 NC (actuator) + 1 NO + 1 NC (solenoid).
- Positive opening NC contact for safety circuits.
