Why Choose the Pizzato FS2998D230 Safety Interlock Switch?
The Pizzato FS2998D230 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 reliable Pizzato FS series, it provides robust safety performance in demanding automation environments.
This model features a separate actuator design, allowing flexible installation across a wide range of machine guarding applications. The integrated solenoid locking mechanism ensures that guards remain securely closed during operation, preventing unsafe access to hazardous areas.
Operating on a 230 V AC/DC supply with a de-energised locking (fail-safe) principle, the FS2998D230 ensures the actuator remains locked in the event of power loss. Its IP67-rated technopolymer housing, auxiliary key release, and positive opening contacts make it ideal for harsh industrial environments.

- Three PG13.5 threaded conduit entries.
Reliable Guard Locking for High-Voltage Applications
The FS2998D230 is specifically suited for systems operating on higher control voltages, providing reliable guard locking and safety monitoring. Its dual NC solenoid contacts offer redundancy in safety circuits, improving system reliability and compliance with modern safety standards.
Its fail-safe locking ensures guards remain securely locked during operation and remain locked during power failure, protecting operators and preventing access to hazardous machinery.
Typical Applications
- Machine guarding and safety interlock systems.
- Automated production lines and robotics.
- Packaging and processing machinery.
- Industrial safety doors and access control systems.
- Conveyor systems with restricted zones.
- Applications requiring 230 V control circuits.
