GELBAU
Gelbau - Sensing strips
The sensing strips consist of two layers of rubber, one with conductive and one normal insulating rubber. A copper wire embedded in two separated layers of conductive rubber together with a resistor at the end of the sensing strip, forms a closed circuit. If the separated layers are pressed together there is a short-circuit, the control unit react and its outputs release. In the same set hammer the control unit reacts to an open-circuit in the cable or in the sensing strip's copper conductor. Several sensing strips can be easily connected in series. Up to 100 m of sensing strip can be connected to one control unit.
- No mechanical components
- Easy installation
- IP67 (factory fitted)
