Edges

The edges are pressure sensitive devices designed to protect both personnel and equipment in industrial environments. They are in a range of different profiles and sensitivities to suit various applications. The construction of the sensing edge is based on a continuous length of ribbon encased in a durable housing material. The housing material is EPDM or NBR. The safety edges are compliant with EN 13856-2. The edges in combination with PS3 control module can reach the CAT 3 - PL “e” as indicated in the ISO 13849-1 standard.

To choose the right bump switch for the application required, consider the following three characteristics, which define performance:

  • Actuating force of the rubber before the contact clousere
  • Activation of the contact by further pressure
  • Overtravel distance after the contact clousure.
  • Working temperature -10° +65°C
    Protection IP56 and IP65
