Why Choose the Pizzato FX 993-D5M2 Safety Switch with Separate Actuator?
The Pizzato FX 993-D5M2 is a robust safety switch with separate actuator designed for monitoring movable guards, doors and access panels on industrial machinery. As part of the Pizzato FX safety switch series, it provides direct electromechanical guard-position monitoring for machine safety and industrial interlocking applications.
The FX 993-D5M2 features a 2NC slow-action contact block with positive-opening operation, providing two normally closed safety contacts for dependable guard monitoring. Its D5 elongated separate actuator engages with the switch head when the guard is closed and is withdrawn when the guard opens, mechanically operating the safety contacts.
A durable technopolymer housing, two M20 × 1.5 cable entries and protection ratings of IP67 and IP69K make the FX 993-D5M2 suitable for demanding industrial environments. The combination of dual NC contacts and a dedicated separate actuator makes it a practical solution for machine builders requiring reliable safety interlocking.

Reliable Guard Monitoring for Industrial Machinery
Separate-actuator safety switches monitor movable machine guards through direct mechanical engagement between a dedicated actuator and the switch head. Opening the guard withdraws the actuator and operates the positively opening safety contacts, allowing the connected safety relay or controller to detect the open-guard condition and initiate the required machine safety response.
The Pizzato FX 993-D5M2 combines this proven operating principle with two normally closed slow-action contacts and a robust industrial enclosure. It is well suited to integration with safety relays, safety controllers and machine control systems where dependable electromechanical guard monitoring is required.
