Tapeswitch™ ArmorMat™ Industrial Safety Mats are designed for personnel detection under conditions that are not suitable for conventional safety mat products. They incorporate an impact-resistant, penetration-resistant barrier that easily withstands abuse that would destroy ordinary pressure sensitive safety mats.
Many standard sizes are available. Custom sizes and shapes can be manufactured to order
with short lead times.
Armormat™ extra heavy-duty switch mats are highly durable and withstand abuse such as repeated gouging by dropped sheet metal, piercing by sharp objects, and continual pounding by heavy work pieces.
The Armormat™ safety mat design safeguards against failure with an impact-resistant barrier that protects a separate moisture-resistant compartment containing the switching elements.
ArmorMat™ sensing mats are available with square or ramped edges. They are easy to install and can be upgraded with metal edging. For mat edging options Click Here. All safety mats are supplied with 4-conductor Fail-Safe wiring, and are compatible with Tapeswitch™ Safety Interface Modules.

Quick-Disconnect Option The ArmorMat™ Safety Mat is available with a quick-disconnect option, which protects the mat if the leads are tugged on or otherwise overstressed. It also allows for the repair of damaged leads without replacing the entire mat. If the mat itself has to be replaced, the wiring can be left intact while allowing for the simple installation of a replacement unit.
Aluminum Edging Option Tapeswitch™ safety mats can be supplied with a choice of edge styles and are necessary to comply with ANSI requirements. Aluminum edging is used to secure the safety mat to the floor and provide a wire chase for the leads. AE-3 edging also has a safety-yellow edge marking.
