Safety contact edges

Product catalog summary
Overview: The document provides comprehensive technical details about the GP-Series safety contact edges, designed to secure closing edges at potential crushing or shearing points in gates, machines, and handling facilities. These devices aim to protect both individuals and equipment.
Specifications: The safety contact edges are composed of an aluminum support profile, a contactor profile, and a safety contact strip. Made from EPDM or NBR rubber, these profiles protect the internal safety contact strip and allow for actuating angles over 90 degrees. The system operates on a closed-circuit principle for continuous monitoring.
Design and Functionality: The core component, the safety contact strip, includes two double-wire cables for connectivity. It is inserted into a contactor profile and sealed with adhesive and an end cap for water resistance, then pressed into the aluminum C-profile.
SKS 18 Safety Contact Strip: This strip serves as a switching element in safety contact edges, offering benefits in material components and geometry. It features a highly insulating EPDM tube with integrated conductive contact areas and copper wires, enabling low-resistance evaluation over long distances.
Technical Data: Various models of the GP-Series are listed with article numbers, materials, delivery lengths, weights, and other specifications. Performance data includes actuating force, actuating distance, and overtravel distance under different testing conditions.
Material Properties: The document details the physical and chemical properties of materials like EPDM and NBR, highlighting their resistance to environmental and chemical factors.
Installation and Ordering Information: Installation instructions for the SKS18 contact strip emphasize ease of self-installation. The document also provides a type code and ordering information for different configurations of the safety contact edges.
Conclusion: The GP-Series safety contact edges are robust, reliable, and compliant with European safety standards, making them suitable for a wide range of industrial applications.
Specifications: The document outlines specifications for the GP-Series safety contact edges, including various aluminum mounting rails with specific article numbers.
Installation Procedures:
  1. Installation must be performed by authorized personnel only.
  2. The aluminum C-profile should be mounted on even surfaces, with a minimum bend radius specified.
  3. Use countersunk screws or rivets with a 4 mm diameter, ensuring holes are evenly distributed and countersunk according to screw size.
  4. Avoid using pan- or round-head screws to prevent damage to the connecting wire.
  5. Drill an 8 mm hole for the connecting wire and remove burrs.
  6. The connecting wire and cable end with an integrated terminal resistor can be placed in the aluminum C-profile.
  7. Use soapy water to ease fitting the safety contact edge into the C-profile, avoiding talcum powder, oils, or similar lubricants.
  8. For safety contact edges with a c-base, clip one side into the C-profile and press in vertically. Avoid pulling or pushing the edge into the profile.
  9. For edges with a t-base, push them into the aluminum C-profile.
  10. Any other fastening methods require prior agreement with the manufacturer.
Technical Data: The document includes technical data as of July 7th, 2009, with a note that technical changes are reserved.
