Tapeswitch ArmorMat Industrial Safety Mats are designed for personnel detection under conditions that are not suitable for conventional safety mat products. They incorporate an impact-resistant, penetration-resistant barrier that easily withstands abuse that would destroy ordinary pressure sensitive safety mats.

Many standard sizes are available. Custom sizes and shapes can be manufactured to order with short lead times.

The ArmorMat Safety Mat is available with a quick-disconnect option, which protects the mat if the leads are tugged on or otherwise overstressed. It also allows for the repair of damaged leads without replacing the entire mat. If the mat itself has to be replaced, the wiring can be left intact while allowing for the simple installation of a replacement unit.

Armormat extra heavy-duty switch mats are nearly impenetrable and withstand abuse such as repeated gouging by dropped sheet metal, piercing by sharp objects, and continual pounding by heavy work pieces.

In conventional safety mats, penetrating objects allow intrusion of moisture, leading to electrical failure. The Armormat safety mat design safeguards against this failure mode with an impact-resistant barrier that protects a separate moisture-resistant compartment containing the switching elements.

ArmorMat sensing mats are available with square or ramped edges. They are easy to install and require no special floor preparation or add-on metal edges, although these are available.
