4. ANTI-PINCH STRIP (D) 

Secondary Obstacle Detection is provided by means of a contact type strip. Strip is composed of two 
conductive zones separated by an air gap. When strip is compressed, conductive zones make contact, 
activating the switch signal. 

Copper wire is extruded through conductive material to prevent resistive buildup. Terminating resistor is 
molded into end of strip to detect failures of strip.
