 The Milltronics MD-36 speed
sensor is a general purpose and hazardous rated shaft driven speed sensor. It
operates in conjunction with a conveyor belt scale, providing a signal to an
integrator which computes the rate of material being conveyed.
The sensor is directly coupled to
the motor or pulley shaft to ensure accurate belt-travel readout, eliminating
problems caused by belt slippage or material build-up.
The MD-36 converts shaft rotation
into a pulse train of 36 pulses per revolution using high precision dual
optocouplers. The digital signal is transmitted as speed input to any Siemens
Milltronics integrator for calculation of belt speed, flow rate and totalized
weight.
This high resolution speed sensor
provides a frequency signal proportional to the shaft speed, enabling low or
varying shaft speeds to be read accurately. The quadrature type circuitry in
the MD-36 non-IS models prevents erroneous speed signals due to vibration or
shaft oscillation.
The MD-36 is easily mounted and
is bi-directional for either clockwise or anti-clockwise rotation.
