IDEM’s 50,000 sq. ft. manufacturing facility is ISO9001 approved and subject to third party surveillance to provide world class products.

Designed and manufactured in the United Kingdom all products undergo extensive testing within our on-site laboratories in addition to third party testing. Below are three descriptions of our extensive range of Explosion Proof machine safety switches. Visit us at www.idemsafety.com to explore the full range on offer.
Specially designed with a mirror polished finish (Ra4) the LM-Ex can be hosed down at high pressure with detergent at high temperature.  Fully encapsulated and providing high ingress protection to at least IP67. The LM-Ex is available with a choice of cable lengths and will operate with most safety relays. Having a wide tolerance to misalignment (12mm) the LM-Ex can also be fitted into narrow channels. Non Contact actuation provides 2NC 1NO contacts for connection to safety relays to provide up to PLe Cat. 4 to ISO13849-1.
Designed and manufactured to satisfy the requirements of ATEX and IECEx approvals the ESL-SS(P)-Ex has been designed with a protective shroud. The protective shroud allows for “lock-off” during maintenance and also protects the button against damage. Manufactured in high grade Stainless Steel 316 the switch also has the additional safety feature of an innovative lid safety trip mechanism which causes the contacts to open if the lid is removed. The internal contact block is fully encapsulated and provides up to 4A switching at 230Vac. Supplied as standard with a 3m cable, other cable lengths are available on request.
Providing E-Stop protection for conveyors up to 100 metres the GLS-SS-Ex is a member of IDEM’s popular Guardian Line Range of Safety Rope Pull Switches. The Stainless Steel 316 housing will withstand tough environments including high pressure and high temperature wash-downs. When used in conjunction with IDEM’s patented Rope Tensioner Gripper System, installation times are significantly reduced and by the non slip mechanism means that machine down time due to rope slippage is eliminated. The internal contact block is fully encapsulated and provides up to 4A switching at 230Vac. Supplied as standard with a 3m cable, other cable lengths are available on request.
