Why Choose the Pizzato FW 992-D2M2 Safety Switch with Separate Actuator?
The Pizzato FW 992-D2M2 is a robust safety switch with separate actuator designed for dependable monitoring of movable machine guards, safety doors and access panels. Part of the Pizzato FW series, it combines a technopolymer housing with mechanically operated safety contacts for industrial machine interlocking applications.
The FW 992-D2M2 incorporates a 2NC slow-action contact block (B9) with positive-opening operation. Both normally closed contacts provide safety-oriented switching, while the direct mechanical operating principle ensures positive opening when the separate actuator is withdrawn from the switch head.
This version is supplied with the VF KEYD2 separate actuator and features three knock-out threaded M20 × 1.5 conduit entries. An IP67 protection rating according to EN 60529 supports installation in demanding industrial environments, making the FW 992-D2M2 a practical solution for machine builders and automation engineers.

Reliable Positive-Opening Guard Monitoring
The Pizzato FW 992-D2M2 operates with the switch body mounted to the fixed machine structure and the separate VF KEYD2 actuator fitted to the movable guard. When the guard opens, the actuator is withdrawn from the switch head and the safety contacts are mechanically operated, allowing the associated safety control system to detect the change in guard position.
Its two normally closed slow-action contacts and positive-opening mechanism make the FW 992-D2M2 particularly suited to safety-related guard monitoring. Combined with IP67 protection and a rugged technopolymer enclosure, this configuration provides a reliable mechanical interlocking solution for industrial machinery and automated equipment.
