Break through NSD (New Switching Device) technology provides digital (on/off) switching for safety mat applications. The advanced NSD switching mechanism provides the following:

• NSD safety mats are designed to be machine interfaced with only NSD safety relay controllers for normally open SPST 4-wire safety mats.
• Impact Resilient -- Heavy-duty electrode assembly and durable outer shell provide excellent impact resilience and the ability to withstand heavy loads
• No rigid steel electrodes used in the switching mechanism that can rust and dent.
• No wiring solder joints within the mat assembly that could degrade or short out. Wiring solder joints can fail under loads such as fork truck or hand cart traffic.
• Life cycle over 5,000,000 switch activations.
• NSD safety mats provide increased reliability and safety with longer product life.
• Customized wire exit positions available with no additional tooling costs.
• Flexible electrodes prevent kinking/short-outs like rigid steel electrodes when bent.
• Mat electrodes are: Non-Corrosive / Flexible / Non-Magnetic / Anti-Static
• AC or DC input power available.
• Large single mat capability helps eliminate additional interconnect pieces required by others and simplifies installation.
• Dual 20' (6.1m) lenghts of two-conductor, 22 guage multi-strand 300 VAC (four conductors total), CSA & UL listed wiring per mat eases installation time.
• Fast delivery on custom shapes and sizes with no need for special tooling costs.
• Multiple zones in one mat housing available.
• Designed specifically for the rigorous industrial environment.
• Easy to install.
• No vacuum seal to break which induces rust and leads to dead zones.
• Can absorb punctures.
• Dual ribbed mat housing.
• High-temp welding mats available.
• Non-skid or high temperature/wet environment surfaces available.
• Hermetically sealed sensor system (NEMA 6, IP67).
• Adapts well to uneven factory floor installations.
• Custom engineered systems available.
• Large selection of sizes and capabilities.
• Maximum intermittent load on an NSD mat is 3000 PSI.
• Patents pending.
• Warranty - two years.

No, we don't recommend puncturing the NSD Safety Mat with nails or shooting it with a .357 magnum (below). These dramatic demonstrations serve to show the exceptional durability of Pinnacle Safety Mat Systems.

If you cannot see the video of the Safety Mat taking more than 490 shots, please visit www.quicktime.com where you will be prompted to install QuickTime Player, a free multimedia player.
