TOUCHSWITCH
Belt Misalignment Sensor
APPLICATION
The Touchswitch is an electro-mechanical limit-switch with no
moving parts, that detects the misalignment of both pulleys and
belts in conveyors and bucket elevators.
The sensor detects the lateral force of the belt or pulley and
activates a voltage free relay contact. This relay contact can be
used to send an alarm or shutdown the machine. The sensors
are usually installed in pairs on opposite sides of the belt /
pulley. The sensors can be connected directly to a PLC input, or
for greater safety, to a central independent monitoring system,
such as the T500 Hotbus or the Watchdog Elite.
