Two-hand control block

The Festo ZSB-1/8-B is a pneumatic two-hand control block designed for safety-critical machine functions. It requires simultaneous operation with both hands to activate connected equipment. The unit features a red housing and 4 mm port connections for compressed air supply. Model number 576656 identifies this specific configuration.

Safety circuit integration

This component suits engineers building or maintaining safety circuits that must meet two-hand start requirements. It is not intended for single-hand actuation, simple on-off switching, or applications needing electrical signal outputs instead of pneumatic logic. Buyers who need a different port thread size or an electrical safety relay should look at other product types.

4 mm pneumatic ports

The defining specification is the 4 mm port size for compressed air tubing. This dimension determines compatibility with existing pneumatic lines and fittings in the control panel. Verify that the installation uses matching 4 mm tubing before ordering. The block is sold individually in a box.

Questions about this item

What comes inside the ZSB-1/8-B box and what must I source separately?

The box contains one Festo ZSB-1/8-B two-hand control block in red. No cables, tubing or mounting hardware are included; those items must be purchased separately.

Which version of the ZSB-1/8-B should I select for a 4 mm pneumatic connection?

The model listed is the 4 mm variant (MPN 576656). Choose this version when your system uses 4 mm push-in fittings; other port sizes are different part numbers.

How does the two-hand control block function once installed in a safety circuit?

It requires both operator hands to actuate simultaneously, sending a pneumatic signal only when both push-buttons are pressed within the required time window, satisfying two-hand start safety requirements.
