The Safedge pressure sensitive system is supplied in two popular profiles, with cushion factor over travel distances of 5mm and 19mm. The cushion factor is the distance the profile can be depressed after a signal has been generated.
It is mounted on an aluminium C rail (included) and is supplied in 1, 1.5 and 2m lengths that may be cut and joined in series or parallel to support a wide range of industrial applications such as power operated doors, guided vehicles and moving machinery beds.
The Safedge profile uses a combination of non-conductive rubber and flexible wire cored conductive rubber bonded together enabling it to return to its original shape even after repeated compressions.
It has no rigid internal parts to damage the rubber profile or cause fatigue failures after prolonged use. The multi-stranded copper wire core throughout the length of the strip also insures that there are no problems of resistance build up on long lengths.
A range of accessories for end termination and 90° active corner joints are also available.

IP65 protection

These Safedge profiles are supplied part assembled. The series terminating resistor and associated end closing cap are not attached to the profile but are supplied separately in a bag. This allows the profile to be cut to the appropriate length before completing the assembly by inserting the resistor and gluing the end cap in place using industrial cyanoacrylate adhesive.

Increase the safety of power-operated equipment with this edge sensor from Rockwell Automation's Allen Bradley Guardmaster range. When a body part or object touches the sensor surface, it triggers the breaking of the electrical circuit, stopping machines and protecting workers from harm. This versatile unit fits onto the leading edges of sliding doors, guided vehicles and lifting platforms. For versatility, you can cut it down to size to achieve an exact fit and it's connectable in series or parallel for use with complex machines and barriers.

• Right-hand lead termination for installation where space it tight
• IP65 rating means it's dust-tight and resistant to low-pressure water jets once it's connected
• Comes mounted on an aluminium rail to speed up installation

• CE Marked
• TÜV Certified
• EN1760-2
• ISO13849-1
• IEC/EN 60204-1

This safety edge sensor is made from nitrile rubber and has a wire core. This means it's suitably flexible and durable to stand up to frequent use in industrial and commercial settings. The rubber material is resistant to oils, acids and water, making it suitable for contaminated environments.
