Assembly instructions

Application

Safety edges (sensors) in combination with a switching unit (signal processing) are components of a safety system (protection system for person detection).
The system, or more specifically the safety edges, are used to safeguard shearing and crushing points on power-operated doors, gates and similar automatic
fixtures. The safety edges can be installed in any horizontal or vertical position, either single or in combination.
