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.

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.

Improve safety in your work environment using this safety edge sensor from Rockwell Automation's Allen Bradley Guardmaster range. It's designed to send a signal to the control unit if the edge of a machine guard comes in contact with a foreign object. The unit comes with an LHT wire for ease of connection to the control unit. It features an aluminium mounting rail that offers resistance to impact and corrosion, making this a durable choice. You'll typically find safety edge sensors in movable machine guards in applications like revolving doors and conveyor systems.

• 1.5m protected area enables multiple cut-and-fix applications
• IP65 rating indicates it's protected against dust entry and low-pressure jets of water
• Can be mounted in any position for versatile assembly
• Corners are also touch-sensitive for added safety

• CE Marked
• cULus
• EN 1760-2
• ISO 13849-1
• AS 4024.5

• IP65 protection

A safety edge system features a rubber profile, aluminium mounting rail and a control unit. When the edge comes in contact with a person or object, the rubber profile compresses, causing the control unit to stop or reverse the machine guard.
