FY series safety switches Gemnis Studio 12
New products 2021-2022
Description
These switches are used on machines where the hazardous conditions remain for a while,
even after the machines have been switched off, for example because of mechanical inertia
of pulleys, saw disks, parts under pressure or with high temperatures. Thus, the switches can
also be used if individual guards are only to be opened under certain conditions.
The new FY series safety locking switches, which are equipped with a technopolymer housing, are a new evolution of the FG series switches. Designed for all applications that do not
require the mechanical strength of metal housings, the FY series switches have the same
spacing between the fixing holes and the same overall dimensions as the FG series switches
to which they add the option of installing up to two control devices and the respective contact blocks using the appropriate version of the housing.
•Housing made of glass fibre reinforced technopolymer, self-extinguishing and shock-proof;
•Head and release device both made of metal;
•3 knock-out threaded conduit entries M20x1.5;
•Degree of protection IP65, IP67 and IP69K and SIL 3, PLe;
•Ambient temperature: -25°C … +60°C;
•Actuator holding force F
•Versions with key release and escape release button;
•Versions with integrated control devices;
•4 types of stainless steel actuators;
•Head and release devices individually turnable and non-detachable.
Heads and devices with variable orientation
After loosening the 4 screws on
the holding head, the holding
head can be aligned relative to all
four sides of the switch.
The key release device and the
escape release button can also
be rotated and secured independently of one another in steps of
90°. The device can thus assume
32 different configurations.

Integrated control devices
The switch is also available with integrated
control devices, allowing up to two devices
and related contact blocks, such as buttons,
emergency stop buttons, indicator lights or
selectors to be mounted.
The result is a compact solution with direct
access to control devices without needing to
install them separately on the switch panel or in
their own housing.
The devices can be illuminated and, thanks to
the PUSH-IN spring-operated connections,
wiring is quick and intuitive.
New version of the Gemnis Studio software
The software for programming the modules of the Gemnis series will soon
be available in the new Gemnis Studio version 12 which has a fully updated
graphic layout and new programming functionality.
The Gemnis Studio software is a graphic development environment for the
creation, simulation and debugging of programs designed for uploading to
Gemnis line modules.
Gemnis series safety modules can implement safety circuits with a safety category of up to SIL 3 according to EN 62061, PLe and category 4 according to
EN ISO 13849-1.
•Completely updated graphics;
•New remote support management;
•Optional selection of "light theme" or "dark theme";
•New function blocks;
•Option of disabling the test pulses of the PNP safety outputs.
New function blocks
Gemnis Studio 12 includes new function blocks for performing mathematical functions that are very useful for applications with frequency
inputs for speed control or with current inputs for analogue sensors.
The new function blocks, available only for modules equipped with Kernel 12, are:
- SUM performs addition of the input data and a second value
- ADIFF calculates the absolute difference between the input data and a second value
- AVG calculates the arithmetic mean of two values
- MUL performs the mathematical function of multiplying two values
- WTOB converts data in Word format into a value in Byte format
- BTST allows verification of the value of a given bit within the input data

Key release device and escape release button
The key release device (auxiliary
release) is used to permit unlocking
of the actuator only by personnel in
possession of the key. The device
also functions with no power supply
and, once actuated, prevents the
guard from being locked.
The escape release button allows
actuator release and immediate
opening of the guard. Generally used
in machines within which an operator
could inadvertently become trapped,
it faces towards the machine interior,
to allow the operator to exit even
in the event of a power failure. The
button has two stable states and can
be freely extended in length with
suitable extensions.
Both devices can be positioned on the four sides of the switch. As a
result, it can be installed both towards the interior and towards the exterior of the machine.
Holding force of the unlocked actuator
The inside of each switch features a device which holds the actuator in its closed position. Ideal for all those applications
where several guards are unlocked simultaneously, but only one is actually opened. The device keeps all the unlocked
guards in their position with a retaining force of approx. 30 N, stopping any vibrations or gusts of wind from opening
them.
LED display unit, type A
In the version with LED display unit of type A, two
green LEDs are switched-on directly by the power
supply of the solenoid. Wiring is not necessary.
LED display unit, types B and C
In the version with LED display unit of type B, connection wires from two LEDs are available, one green
and one red. By means of suitable connections on
the contact block, various operating states
of the switch can be

Option of disabling the test pulses of the
PNP safety outputs
The electronic safety outputs of the Gemnis modules are always
protected and monitored for dangerous faults. In order to perform
this monitoring, test impulses (i.e. very short switch-offs of the
outputs) are created in the safety outputs while the outputs are
active. These test impulses are generally undetectable on passive
loads (contactors or similar); in rare cases, however, they can
disturb the inputs of digital devices such as PLCs or electronic
drives.
With Gemnis Studio 12, it will be possible to disable the test
impulses of the PNP safety outputs in cases where the application
requires it. Faults such as short-circuits to the external positive
pole are still detectable when the outputs are switched off.
Retro-compatibility with the K10 and K11 modules New interface
The new Gemnis Studio 12 software is completely retro-compatible
and capable of programming modules from previous generations
equipped with Kernel 10 or 11. It will be sufficient to compile the
program for the desired module generation (the current software
version already features a command that allows you to select the
kernel version).
However, bear in mind that the new function blocks for mathematical
operations cannot be used with modules K10 and K11.
The new Gemnis Studio 12 programming software has a
completely new look.
With retractable side panels housing the sensors and function
blocks, the field available for working in the programme is now
larger and neater.
Among the new settings available is the option of choosing
between light and dark display themes.

P-KUBE Smart safety handles for ST series RFID sensors ST G - ST H series safety sensors BN series control device units - NS series safety switchesRemote escape release for NG and NS series safety switches
Description
The remote escape release is operated via a flexible cable and facilitates remote
unlocking of the safety switch in cases where conventional release devices (lock-type,
by screwdriver, push button, etc.) are not easily accessible due to the configuration
of the machinery.
The remote escape release is particularly suitable in situations where the switch must
be installed in a difficult-to-reach position, for example on top of a guard or inside a
shield in order to prevent tampering.
The remote escape release can be used with NG and NS series RFID safety switches
with guard locks.
•Self-monitoring of cable tension to stop the machinery safely in case of cut or loosened
cable;
•Available for NG and NS series RFID safety switches with guard locking;
•Signalling of the device status and the correct tension of the actuation cable;
•Device can be turned in 90° steps;
•Flexible mounting of the remote release device.
Self-monitoring of cable tension
Unlike other similar solutions on the market, the Pizzato Elettrica remote
escape release is equipped with an innovative mechanical control system
which safely stops the machinery, if the cable is cut or loosened.
When the device is activated, the square control indicator is positioned at
symbol; in the event of a fault or anomaly, the square control indicator
the
is positioned at the
symbol facilitating a quick diagnosis by the user.
Description
P-KUBE Smart safety handle can be used together with the RFID safety sensors of the ST
series to create a modern and effective interlock system for all guards of machines without
inertia.
These products combine the characteristics of a robust handle for safety enclosures, with
an ergonomic, rounded grip and customisable functions for the customer, with various
illuminated signalling options, to reflect the state of the guard, or other operating conditions
the manufacturer wishes to indicate.
Depending on user needs, the new handles also allow integration of a control device (e.g.
a button), directly in the grip.

•Versions without RFID tags available.
Description Description
The RFID safety sensors of the ST G - ST H series represent the evolution
of the ST D series already known and appreciated by machine builders and
users.
The symmetry of the housing allows the same sensor to be used on both
left and right doors; by simply rotating the sensor onto itself. The mounting
hole spacing (22 mm for the ST G series, 78 mm for the ST H series) was
especially realised to perform a technological upgrade of the traditional
magnetic sensors of the SR A and SR B series, replacing these with an
evolved RFID safety sensor, without changing the machine’s mounting
hole spacing.
The monolithic housing – free of resins for encapsulation – can be used in
even the most aggressive of environments; such as, for example, in the
food and pharmaceuticals sector.
•Can be used with several high level coded actuators;
•Each actuator produces a different response from the sensor;
•Can communicate with a PLC;
•Brand-new solution on the market;
Individually and freely configurable
•Wide range of programming options to meet the customer's needs;
•User configurable magnetic holding force of the actuator;
The new modular control device units of the BN series from Pizzato
Elettrica can be combined perfectly with the RFID safety switches with
lock of the NS series. Machine manufacturers who already use these
products thereby have the possibility to attach a control device unit directly
next to the safety switch that is identical in shape and dimensions.
The control device units of the BN series are available in configurations
with 1 to 8 devices.
The unique design with individually turnable modules allows the user to
select from a number of combinations. He receives a very versatile product
that is immediately ready for use.
•Technopolymer housing;
•Min. dimensions 40x40 mm;
•Ambient temperatures from -25°C up to +70°C;
•Protection degree IP65;
•Configurable with several types of connections;
•Turnable and non-detachable modules;
•Various types of contact blocks available;
•Customisation option using laser engraving on the button lenses and the
housing.
•Easy to mount thanks to its symmetrical housing.
Chrome-plated or illuminated grip
The grip is available with front strip in two finishes: satin chrome, and
illuminated white. In the second version, the grip can be illuminated
using RGB LED technology.
The modern, ergonomic design, combined with fully concealed fixing
screws and wiring, allows implementation of machines and guards
with particularly pleasing aesthetics.
Release not activated Cable cut or loosenedRelease activated
Integrated control device
In the grip of the P-KUBE Smart handle, a spring-return button with
1NO contact can be integrated. This can be illuminated with a LED,
and thus allows interaction with the machinery; for example to request
machine stop, or transmit a reset command. The button is available in
white, red, green, yellow, blue, and black.
Devices of the ST H series can be
ordered with a permanent magnet
installed inside the housing, able to
generate a holding force between
sensor and actuator.
This way, the guard can be kept
closed even when there are vibrations or when there is a recoil during
the closing stage.
The magnetic holding force can be selected in three different magnitudes to best adapt to any usage situation.

Devices with a T8 code extension can be installed
in environments with temperatures from -35°C to
+85°C and are especially indicated for machines in
the food and pharmaceutical sector, allowing to use
ST sensors in a broad field of application.
The extended temperature versions are avail-
The control device unit is available in various configurations: for
standard applications there are configurations with 1 to 4 devices,
while configurations with 6, 7 or 8 devices are available for more
complex applications that allow a larger number of control and
signalling devices to be attached at the same location for the user.
Minimal dimensions
One special feature of the control device units of the
BN series is the slim thickness of just 40 mm.
The control devices are embedded in the housing of
the unit and protrude only slightly out of the front.
This protects the control devices from unintended
impacts, thereby increasing the service life of the
devices and, at the same time, giving the devices
an attractive design, making them predestined for
use on modern machines in which this aspect is also
given special consideration.

Orientable device
The remote escape release device can always be
oriented to one of the four sides of the switch
by simply unscrewing the four fixing screws of
the switch head. This feature of the NG and NS
switches facilitates a unique degree of flexibility in
the installation of this type of device.
The remote escape release device can also
be ordered with four different cable exit orientations in order to choose the most suitable orientation for the application on the
machine.
Standard devices are configured with the
cable exit direction oriented downwards.
Universal handle
The P-KUBE Smart handle is also available in the version without RFID
tag, so that it can be used as a simple handle to open a guard, regardless of the type of safety switch with which the door interlock is made
of.
In this configuration, it is possible to use the versions with illuminated
grip, to create an integrated visual signal system without the need to
install further devices on board of the machine.
Compatible with P-KUBE Krome
Designed with the same handle size and the same interaxle spacings
for the fixing holes of the inner plate, the P-KUBE Smart series can be
used as inner handle in guards using the P-KUBE Krome safety handle
for NS and NG series RFID saftey switches with lock.
The mounting turns out to be practical and quick, as the two handles
can be fixed by using only two holes passing through the frame and
two screws of adequate length.
All these elements put together form a system with uniform lines and
with aesthetic continuity between the inner and outer handle.
Actuation from many directions
The sensors were designed to be activated from various directions, thereby
providing the customer with maximum flexibility when positioning the
sensors on the guards.
Programmability
Programmable sensor versions are available. Here, with a simple and brief operation, the sensor can be programmed to
recognise the code of a new actuator.
By activating a special input, the sensor is
switched to a safe state, during which it
waits for a new code to be accepted. As
the actuator approaches, the sensor performs a number of checks on the code
being received, whereby the code must
adhere to certain parameters of RFID technology.
If the checks are successful, the sensor uses LEDs to signal the successful completion of the procedure.
After programming has been completed, the sensor only recognises
the code of the last programmed actuator, thereby preserving the
safety level and the reliability of the system in which it is installed.

with all actuators available for the ST series, with either high or low
level of coding.
This is particularly useful in applications where the actuator must have
specific characteristics; such as, for example, increased activation dis-
tance(SME•Tactuators),compactinstallationdimensions(SML•T

NS series safety switches
Description
These switches are used mainly on machines
where the hazardous conditions persist
even after the machine has been switched
off. Mechanical parts such as pulleys, saw
blades, etc., could continue to move after the
machine is switched off. Thus, the switches
can also be used if individual guards are only
to be opened under certain conditions.
Versions with mode 1 and 3 (safety outputs active when guard closed and locked)
are interlocks with guard locking acc. to
ISO 14119; the product is labelled with the
symbol shown.
•Elongated housing with the option of housing one to four control devices;
•Wide range of available control devices;
•Rotatable modules for the greatest installation flexibility;
•Configurable with various types of connection output;
•Compatible with P-KUBE Krome safety handles.

Integrated control devices
In addition to the basic version, the
NS series switches are also available in a version with elongated
housing with room for mounting
one to four control devices, with
the relative contact blocks, on the
same body as the safety device.
This version has the same modular
and orientation features as the NS
switches.
To meet requirements for a range
of uses, a number of different
colour and types of control devices
can be adopted such as, for example: buttons, emergency stop
buttons, indicator lights, selector
switches. Button lenses are customizable by laser engraving.
The control devices can be illuminated and protrude only slightly
out of the housing thanks to the
recessed housing hole.
The result is a compact solution with direct access to control
devices without needing to install
them separately on the switch
panel or in their own housing.
