MICROCONTROLLER ELECTRONIC SPEED SWITCH

Category: Non Contact Switches

Description

Function :

Electronic Speed Switch is designed to evaluate the speed of a rotating object based on the speed information picked up by the non-contact type Inductive Proximity Switch. Output switches ON or OFF depending upon the process speed as compared to the set trip speed. Startup / Initial Bypass Delay (IBPD) facility is provided to bypass the under speed condition during startup. This allows safe time for the equipment to reach normal speed.

Non-contact sensing.
Extreme low speed & high speed detection.
Programmable Set Points through keys.
Input sensor selection facility: NPN or PNP or 2 Wire DC (NAMUR) type proximity switches can be used.
Programmable Speed Range through keys.
Programmable Initial Bypass delay (IBPD).
2 C/O (2NO+2NC) relay contacts with programmable Relay Logic.
6 digit, 7-segment LED display to indicate speed in RPM.
User interface through keys.
Programmable Hysteresis.
ABS / Polycarbonate, IP-65 grade Enclosure for Monitor Unit.

Optional Features

Programmable Trip Delay.
4 – 20 mA output available.

Electronic Speed Switch is ideally suited to monitor any repetitive (i.e. rotational or translational) motion. It is best suited for the speed monitoring of material handling systems such as Belt Conveyors, Screw Conveyors, Bucket Elevators, Crushers, Drag Chains, Rotary Feeders etc.

Typical applications are:
To sense under speed or over speed conditions.
Detection of jamming in Feeders or Extractors.
Interlocking of conveyors.
Detection of chain link breakage in machines like Reclaimers, Drag Chain etc.
Motion detection.
Fan speed monitoring.
Missing bucket sensing in bucket elevators.
