GELBAU
Gelbau - Sensing strips
The sensing strips consist of two layers of rubber, one with conductive and one normal insulating rubber. A copper wire embedded in two separated layers of conductive rubber together with a resistor at the end of the sensing strip, forms a closed circuit. If the separated layers are pressed together there is a short-circuit, the control unit react and its outputs release. In the same set hammer the control unit reacts to an open-circuit in the cable or in the sensing strip's copper conductor. Several sensing strips can be easily connected in series. Up to 100 m of sensing strip can be connected to one control unit.

Tekox Terminal Strips Safety Blocks and Porcelain Blocks
Great electrical installations don't fail because of the major components. They fail because of the small ones that didn't get enough attention.
It's easy to focus on the big-ticket items during specification — and let the terminal blocks become an afterthought. But inferior connection components have a habit of making themselves known over time. Loose connections, degraded insulation, premature failure. The kind of faults that are frustrating to trace and expensive to fix.
Tekox engineer their terminal strips, safety blocks, insulated strips, and porcelain blocks to the standards your installations deserve. Available now from Demesne Electrical — get in touch and we'll show you the range.
