Production Monitors

SS1 : Rotation Monitor and Frequency Switch
 
SS1 - Rotation Monitor and Frequency Switch The SS1 monitor is a plug-in module which functions by detecting the speed of a moving bolt head, toothed wheel or other suitable competent. Reciprocating, rotating or vibrating mechanisms may be successfully monitored by this technique. Linear motion detection is also possible where evenly spaced components can be sensed.

When the speed falls below a pre-set minimum, an internal relay operates after an adjustable time delay. The relay contacts may be used to provide interlock facilities within the machine control systems. The actual sensing component used is normally an inductive proximity switch. However, provision is made within the SS1 to enable magnetic sensors to be employed.

In shaft stop applications, the monitor can prevent machine guards from being removed from still-rotating parts. The system required only a single pulse to ensure complete protection for the whole of the elapsed time period.

Applications include: Shaft stopped detection, Machine guard interlocks, Flow line supervision, Conveyor motion sensing, Vibration monitoring, Frequency switch.

CLT230D : Speed and Distance Display System
 
CLT230D - Speed and Distance Display System The CLT230D system provides a dual LCD display of speed and distance with an optional input for a totalising counter.

An integral relay trip operates at a pre-set speed and a variable 0-10V DC output signal can be provided for control or monitoring purposes. The instrument is designed for use on 12 or 24V DC supplies as specified.

The system is normally provided pre-programmed but may be altered on site using the MKP125 plug in programmer.

Sensing is carried out by a pulse sensor in conjunction with a bolt head, keyway or gear teeth. The sensor normally used is a 3 wire inductive proximity sensor.

The program is set to permit the CLT230D to display the required speed and count readings and should be adjusted for the number of pulses per revolution at the sensing pint and any gearbox ratio involved.

DMS1 SD : Shaft Motion Detector
 
DMS1 SD - Shaft Motion Detector The DMS1 SD is a DIN rail mounted module which operates by detecting the speed of rotation of a bolt head, toothed wheel or other suitable component.

When the speed falls below the pre-set minimum, an internal relay operates. The relay contacts may be used to provide machine interlock facilities on falling or increasing speed.

An inductive sensor is normally used for bolt head detection, however, the DMS1 SD enables many different types of sensor to be employed.

Applications: Machine-in-use indicator, shaft stopped interlocks, production line monitoring, missing component detection, conveyor motion sensing, vibration monitoring, frequency switch, overall factory monitoring by use of a data logger.

A versatile rate dependent interlock system.
