TS-3 Micro Sensing Edges
Lowest profile, high sensitivity, pressure sensitive safety edges
with immediate actuation and no overtravel
 

Tapeswitch TS-3 Micro Sensing Edges are among the most compact pressure sensitive safety edges available. Only ½ inch wide and 5/16 inch high, they provide reliable sensing in minimum space. These edges can be mounted with double-faced tape or using aluminum channel.

TS-3 Micro Sensing Edges are available in lengths from 6 in. to over 100 ft, making them suitable for pressure sensitive detection, signaling, or emergency stops on long assembly lines or conveyor systems.The PVC housing is resistant to water, oil, hydraulic fluids, and coolants. The internal switching element is rated for 3 million operations at any point. All TS-3 pressure sensitive safety edges are supplied with 4-lead fail-safe wiring and are compatible with Tapeswitch Safety Controllers.
