Construction & Features:
- Totally Enclosed: The sensor is fully sealed, making it resistant to dust, moisture, and harsh environmental conditions. This ensures durability and long-term reliability in industrial settings.
- Utilizing AE 2000 Series Sensors: These sensors are specifically designed for speed, movement, and position monitoring of conveyor belts. They likely use inductive, optical, or magnetic sensing principles to track belt motion.
Monitoring Capabilities:
This system is used to monitor and detect issues related to conveyor belts:
-
Belt Slip:
- Detects when the belt is slipping on the drive pulley.
- This could indicate tension issues, worn-out pulleys, or motor drive problems.
- Prevents inefficiency, material spillage, and potential belt damage.
-
Belt Speed Measurement:
- Measures the actual speed of the belt to ensure it operates within the correct parameters.
- Helps maintain optimal material flow and process consistency.
-
Belt Weighers:
- Works in conjunction with weighing systems that measure material flow on the conveyor.
- Ensures accurate weight readings by verifying belt speed and movement.
-
Distance/Length Measurement:
- Monitors the total distance a belt has traveled over time.
- Useful for predictive maintenance, tracking belt wear, and scheduling replacements.
-
Belt Stopped Alarm:
- Detects when the conveyor stops unexpectedly.
- Can trigger an alarm to alert operators and prevent blockages or material overflow.
- Helps in automatic shutdown of the system to avoid damage or accidents.
Application & Integration:
- Typically used in industries such as mining, aggregate processing, logistics, and bulk material handling.
- Can be integrated with PLCs or speed relays for automated control and alarm functions.
- Ensures safety, reduces downtime, and improves operational efficiency.
