Features

  • Digital control method ensures highly accurate detection.
  • Operating speed is adjustable (3~1999 rpm).
  • Built-in startup compensation timer ensures Max. 99 seconds of startup compensation setting.
  • As the conveyor belt speed is detected directly, the speed change of the belt alone is reliably detected.

Operating Principles

An electrical signal is sent from the built-in photo sensor through the rotation cam installed on the shaft or from the built-in proximity sensor through the rotation metal piece installed on the mechanical unit. By counting this electrical signal for a given length of time, the shaft rotation speed is detected as the rotation speed per minute. It outputs contact when the rotation speed falls below the preset speed.
