Pressure sensitive protective devices, commonly referred to as safety mats, pressure-sensitive safety floors, or pressure-sensitive switches, are critical components in industrial safety systems. These devices are designed to detect the presence of a person or object through applied pressure, typically using a matrix of pressure-sensitive cells or conductive layers. They operate at low voltages (e.g., 24 VDC) and are rated for specific actuation forces, often ranging from 30 to 100 N, with response times under 200 ms. They are available in various sizes and shapes, with IP ratings from IP65 to IP67 for harsh environments. These devices are often integrated with safety relays or controllers to ensure compliance with standards like ISO 13849 or IEC 62061.
These devices are primarily used in industrial automation and robotics to create safe zones around machinery, such as robotic cells, assembly lines, or packaging equipment. They are installed on floors, platforms, or access areas to detect personnel entry into hazardous zones, triggering an immediate stop or safety function. Common sectors include automotive manufacturing, logistics, food processing, and metalworking, where they protect operators from crushing, shearing, or entanglement hazards. They are also used in public spaces like elevators or automatic doors for presence detection.
Key subcategories include pressure-sensitive safety mats (e.g., models like the Schmersal SMS series or Omron MC series), pressure-sensitive safety floors (e.g., Pilz PSENmat), and pressure-sensitive switches (e.g., Banner Engineering PSS series). Article codes often follow patterns like "SMS-xxx" for mats or "PSENmat-xxx" for floors, where "xxx" denotes dimensions or electrical configuration. These devices are typically supplied with connection cables, mounting brackets, and test accessories.
