Tapeswitch Control Units
have been specifically designed to be used with our range of
pressure-sensitive products such as ribbon switches, sensing edges, safety mats and signalling sensors.
Tapeswitch Control Units act as an interface between the Tapeswitch sensor and the
end-user device such as a machine and/or process control.

Variety of enclosures
Choice of input voltages
Control reliable
PSSU/PRSU types - comply with Category 3 - EN954-1
Tapeswitch offer a wide range of control units with
various degrees of safety integrity levels. All Tapeswitch Control Units provide constant monitoring of the sensor
device. In the event of a failure within the sensor or
its cable (open or short circuit) the safety control unit
automatically detects this failure. In addition to the
ability to detect a failure within the sensor or its
cabling, the PSSU Series is designed to detect a failure
within the control unit itself.
All Tapeswitch Control Units operate with an input voltage of
110/240V AC or 24V DC and always supply a non-hazardous
24V DC to the sensor.
In all Tapeswitch Control Units the output relays are
energised when the sensor device is clear (not
actuated). When the sensor device is actuated the
output relays will be de-energised.
There are a variety of different enclosure styles and
input voltage options. The output contact arrangement
and operational modes range from remote manual
reset, auto-reset to self-contained manual reset. For more detailed information about our range of Control Units see our
Technical Specification page.
