Acoustic and Motion Sensors
Process protection devices can be used as early warning systems to avoid costly interruptions and breakdowns of equipment. They detect flow systems, blockages, screen faults, machinery slowdowns, or burst filter bags. Their rugged construction makes them impervious to dust, dirt buildup, and moisture.
Acoustic Sensors
Acoustic sensors are ideal for pump monitoring and solids flow detection. Their sensitivity to
leakages or flow detection ensure that processes are running without failure.
SITRANS DA400
A new Dimension in Monitoring Pumps
The SITRANS DA400 acoustically measures the structure-borne noise - In the version for pump monitoring; on oscillating displacement pumps - In the version for material flow monitoring; on pipes, conveying equipment or channels. It comprises an electric diagnostic unit and up to four acoustic sensors.
SITRANS AS100
The Optimum Solids Flow Detection
SITRANS AS100 is an acoustic sensor used for solids flow detection. It detects changes in high frequency sound waves from equipment and materials in motion and reacts instantly to changes in solids flow to warn of blockages, product absence, or equipment failure such as burst filter bags.
SITRANS CU02
The Reliable Protection for Bulk Solids Flow
SITRANS CU02 is an alarm control unit, for use with SITRANS AS100 acoustic sensor, that provides reliable continuous protection for bulk solid flow. The SITRANS CU02 receives a 0 to 10 V DC input signal from the SITRANS AS100 sensor, providing relay and analog outputs for interface into a process.
Motion Sensors
All of the MFA 4p motion sensing probes can be mounted up to 100 mm (4") from the ferrous target,
reducing the chance of damage to the probe and the equipment. The probes are not
affected by moisture or dust build-up.
Milltronics MFA 4P
The Highly Sensitive
Milltronics MFA 4p motion failure alarm controller is highly sensitive single setpoint motion sensor system, used with Milltronics MSP and XPP probes. It detects changes in the motion and speed of rotating, reciprocating, or conveying equipment. It warns of equipment malfunction and signals through contacts to shut down machinery in case of a slowdown or failure.
SITRANS WM100
The Heavy-Duty Zero-Speed Alarm Switch
SITRANS WM100 is a heavy-duty zero-speed alarm switch. This non-contacting unit provides cost-effective equipment protection even in the harshest conditions. This rugged unit is impervious to dust, dirt, buildup, and moisture and is ideal for primary industries including mining, aggregate, and cement.
SITRANS WM300 MFA
The SITRANS WM300 MFA
detects changes in the motion and speed of rotating, reciprocating, or conveying equipment. It warns of equipment malfunction and signals through contacts to shut down machinery in case of a slowdown or failure.
Motion Sensing Probes
Cost-effective Motion Sensing Probes
Milltonics MSP-7 is a heavy-duty 3-wire motion sensor that provides an NPN open collector output to PLCs. The MSP-7 motion sensing probe can detect changes in the rotation and movement of ferrous equipment. When connected to a PLC it can warn of malfunction and signals to stop or slow down equipment, preventing costly failure or downtime.
