Rope Pull Switches
The IDEM GuardianLine range of cable pull switches includes 'Mini Duty', 'Standard Duty' and 'Heavy Duty' models, as well as
Stainless Steel and Accessories.
Innovative Tensioner
One of the areas which makes the Guardian Line new and innovative is in
the area of rope connectivity. Traditional ‘turn-buckle’ style rope
fasteners and adjusters are prone to rope slippage and require frequent
re-tensioning leading to production loss caused by machine down time.
Idem
has overcome this common problem by providing a rope connection system
with a ‘Quick Link’ clasp at one end of the rope and a patented
Tensioner/Gripper at the other.
The Tensioner / Gripper is located
at the switch (rather than elsewhere along the rope length) so that the
switch tension window can be viewed. Final setting and locking can be
achieved in a matter of seconds without any need for frequent
re-tensioning.

systems and can be enhanced by adding external mushroom type E Stop at
the switch or bi-colour LED available to show switch status from a
