IDEM

IDEM Guardian line standard duty GLS

The GLS is a General/Standard Duty robust die-cast Safety Rope Pull Switch designed to protect conveyor lengths where protection is required up to 80m using two switches or up to 60m using a single switch.

They provide a reliable general purpose safety solution for conveyors and offer a choice of fittings depending upon the application.

They can be supplied with a mushroom type Emergency Stop button which can be fitted to the side of the switch to offer an extra traditional Emergency Stop function close to the switch, or can be fitted later after installation without any extra wiring.

A bi-colour LED is also available to show switch status from a distance and they have a choice of 3 pole, 4 pole or Explosion Proof contact blocks to ensure flexibility with all modern control applications.

Rugged internal sealing bellows means the GLS can be high pressure hosed and choice of materials makes them suitable for internal or external use.
