The
new Milltronics ME100 motion sensor protects your investment in process
equipment.
This
heavy duty motion sensor has been specially designed to protect rotating
and conveying equipment such as bucket elevators, rotary feeders, screw
conveyors, and belt conveyors used in the mining, aggregate, cement, water
and wastewater, and pulp and paper industries.
The
ME100 sensor monitors ferrous targets mounted to drive sprockets or
rotating pulleys. It can also monitor motor shaft drive keys and screw
conveyor flights. Its magnetic field immediately detects any change in
motion (increase, decrease, or lack of motion) and prompts an alarm that
signals the operator to resolve the problem. Alternatively, it will
automatically shut down the equipment if the ME100 is tied into the motor
control scheme. Quick detection helps protect equipment from damage and
prevents process failure.
The
ME100 sensor's strong magnetic field allows effective monitoring of
ferrous targets up to 100 mm (4") away, depending on target size and
speed. Detection is unaffected by dust or moisture, and is reliable within
a wide temperature range (-20° to 65°C or -4° to 149°F). The ME100 has
a rugged 316 stainless steel body and mounting clamp, and offers 24 VDC
operation for improved safety. It meets all the requirements for CE
compliance.
The
ME100 HL (High/Low) model has a self-calibration feature and alarms at
speeds both above and below the calibration point. Digital electronics
accurately detect overspeed or underspeed situations. The ME100 ZS (Zero
Speed) model offers simple alarming of machinery approaching zero speed.
Set up is easy with no calibration required as the ME 100 HL is
self-calibrating, and the ME100 ZS has pre-set calibration. |
