messages (available in 4 different
languages) and a super-bright LED display shows belt speed. Calibration Sensor and set-up parameters are accessed Wiring via a password and front panel Terminals
touch buttons. The system is FM
and CSA approved for class II, division 1, groups E, F and G. Power/Control Wiring Terminals Pulley Alignment Sensor Non-contacting magnetic proximity sensor can detect the steel pulley edge to indicate misalignment. Simplicity, Reliability, Consistency The system sensors are specifically designed to monitor bucket elevators in tough environments. The extended range magnetic motion and alignment sensors have a user-adjustable field, which allows detection of moving elevator buckets or bucket bolts. These sensors are fail-safe in design and not affected by dust or material build-up. The Watchdog Elite is easily installed and has a menu-driven set-up, which enables use on all bucket elevators.
RS485 Serial Communication as standard, and optional
PLC Interface Board available.
Clear, Concise Display Messages
With over 100 display and set-up messages, the Watchdog Elite provides the operator with fast, easy to Motion/Alignment Sensor read, real-time information on the status of the elevator, Non-contacting magnetic sensors the monitoring system and the external wiring. monitor belt speed and alignment. Mounted at the boot and/or the head, they detect the elevator buckets or bolts.
