Pizzato Elettrica NX series of RFID safety switches

The Pizzato Elettrica NX series of RFID safety switches with lock has introduced new functionality that makes it suitable for many industrial applications. The new features are designed to ensure safe exit from within guards in emergency situations and provide greater resistance for the device when it is exposed to chemicals and frequent washing, which are typical in the food and beverage industry.

Firstly, the NX series has obtained ECOLAB approval that certifies the safety switch’s resistance to the most commonly used chemical agents for cleaning and disinfecting industrial environments. The tests carried out certify that devices maintain their functional and mechanical characteristics even after prolonged exposure to detergents and disinfectants commonly used in the food industry. This certification is a key added value for the NX series, making it suitable for use in all industrial contexts that demand high safety standards as well as strict cleaning and hygiene protocols.

The other feature is the addition of the rear emergency release button, also known as an ‘escape release’. This enables the release of the actuator directly from within protected areas, providing an additional level of safety for operators in the event of an emergency.
