The ZL-K Tear Switch is a reliable safety device engineered to detect conveyor belt damage, such as tears, rips, or material intrusions. It operates using a pair of tensioned wire ropes installed along the belt edges. When belt damage causes sagging or displacement, the rope contacts the switch’s trigger mechanism, activating an immediate alarm or shutdown signal.
Built with a durable aluminum alloy body and corrosion-resistant components, the ZL-K ensures longevity in harsh environments. Its compact design and easy installation make it suitable for mining, logistics, and industrial applications. By preventing costly breakdowns and enhancing operational safety, the ZL-K is an essential solution for conveyor system protection.

ZL-KI Tear Switch: A Robust Solution for Conveyor Belt Safety
The ZL-KI Tear Switch is a critical mechanical safety device designed to detect and respond to conveyor belt damage, such as tears, punctures, or material intrusions. Operating on a principle of mechanical disruption, this switch employs a pair of ethylene-coated aviation wire ropes installed along both sides of the conveyor belt. When the belt sustains damage, the affected section may sag or displace, causing the wire rope to contact the switch’s pull ring. This interaction triggers an alarm or shutdown signal, preventing further damage and ensuring operator safety.
Engineered for durability, the ZL-KI switch features an aluminum die-cast cover and brass contacts with silver tips, offering resistance to oil, water, and pressure. Its IP65 protection rating guarantees reliable performance in harsh industrial environments, including exposure to dust and moisture. The switch supports a mechanical lifespan of over 1 million operations and an electrical lifespan exceeding 100,000 cycles, ensuring long-term reliability.
Installation involves mounting the switch pairs symmetrically on the conveyor frame, connecting them via wire ropes, and aligning the ropes parallel to the belt. Adjustable tension ensures consistent responsiveness, with multiple switches permissible on a single belt. While installation brackets are sold separately, the system’s modularity allows seamless integration into existing conveyor setups.
Applications span industries like mining, logistics, and manufacturing, where conveyor belt integrity is paramount. By mitigating risks of equipment failure and material spillage, the ZL-KI Tear Switch enhances operational safety and reduces maintenance costs. Its robust design and rapid response make it an indispensable component of modern conveyor safety systems.
