Safety Edges

Safety Edges HSC® for protection against risks at shearing and crushing edges. Shearing and crushing edges at automatically driven devices bear a substantial risk of injury for persons. To protect against these risks, Safety Edges are employed. Crushing and shearing edges may occur at automated machine doors, lifting tables, theatre stages, automatically opening and closing doors and many others. Safety Edges, when activated, will immediately switch off the power source. Our Safety Edges use a unique high integrity principle with mechanically opening N/C contacts connected in series. Pressure on the safety edge will positively break the current circuit. We offer a large range of variants, which are selected depending on the application (indoors/outdoors/ dry/wet/aggressive media) and inertia forces and speeds at the crushing position
