According to the normally open principle

When Mayser normally open Safety Edges SL/NO are activated, a contact is closed, thus causing a short-circuit. In order to protect people and objects, a signal to the evaluation unit interrupts automatically controlled movement immediately.

Mayser Safety Edges are mounted as Anti Pinch Sensors direct to dangerous pinching and shearing edges. For example, on machines, stages or gates. Depending on the run of the closing edge, bend radii are possible.

The high-quality materials and various profile geometries Mayser Safety Edges come in guarantee their suitability for all stopping distances and environmental influences. The Safety Edges are therefore both resistant to weather conditions and to most chemical substances.
