Usually placed in the front or rear stairwells of a vehicle, a treadle matsends a signal when stepped on. This signal usually serves one of four functions: 1. To prevent the doors from closing on a passenger who is standing in the stairwell. 2. To open the doors for an exiting passenger when the bus is stopped and the driver has applied power to the doors.The passenger steps down on the mat and the doors open. 3.

Tapeswtich pressure-sensitive door edges employ normally-open, momentary-contact ribbon switches, which can signal the door control when an obstacle is encountered. Theyfeature a 4-wire, fail-safe lead configuration which enables detection of opens and shorts in the switches or interconnecting wiring, when used with an appropriate controller. These electrical sensing edges operate more consistently and reliably than their pneumatic counterparts. In many cases, they will continue to work with physical damage that wouldrender pneumatic systems inoperable. ■ Precise and repeatable operation...

Since Tapeswitch invented Ribbon Switches more than 50 years ago, this technology has been incorporated into thousands of standard and custom switching,signaling, and sensing products. Below are examples of some of these. Touchpads Large active areas of 4 or 16 square inches.Normally-open, press-to-activate switches that are highly water resistant and easily mountable using a frame or adhesive.Custom touchpads are available in five different colors and with logos, text, or graphics. Suitable for emergency stops, door operation, ADA applications or anywhere a large switch is required. Foot...
