3. Multi functional outputIt has two functions: alarm and shutdown, and users can choose the appropriate protection mode according to their needs.

4. Easy to installReasonable design structure, easy installation and maintenance, suitable for various types of conveying systems.

Technical parameters:

• working voltage：AC 220V / 380V
• Working current：5A
• Detection angle：±10°
• response time:<1 second
• working temperature: -20 ° C to+60 ° C
• Protection level：IP65
• Shell materialCast aluminum alloy
• Output method: Normally open or normally closed contacts

working principle:The 3EPK-I belt deviation switch monitors the running status of the belt through a built-in sensor. When the belt deviates from the normal track and the deviation angle exceeds the set value, the switch will immediately trigger an alarm or stop signal to prevent equipment damage and production accidents. This device is usually linked with the control system of the conveyor to achieve automatic protection.

Application scenarios:

• Mining Conveyor System
• Metallurgical plant belt conveyor equipment
• Chemical industry conveyor line
• Port loading and unloading system
• Coal transportation system of power plant

Installation and maintenance:

1. Installation location selectionInstall the 3EPK-I belt deviation switch at key positions where the belt is prone to deviation, such as the head, tail, or middle section, to ensure accurate detection of belt deviation.

2. Wiring and DebuggingConnect the wires correctly according to the instructions and perform preliminary debugging. Adjust the detection angle and sensitivity to ensure that the switch can trigger an alarm or shutdown function at the actual offset angle.

3. Regular inspection and maintenanceRegularly inspect the appearance and internal circuit of the switch to ensure its normal operation. Clean the surface of the sensor to avoid dust and foreign objects affecting the detection accuracy. It is recommended to conduct a comprehensive inspection every 6 months to ensure the long-term stability of the equipment.

Safety precautions:

• During installation and maintenance, it is essential to disconnect the power supply to prevent the risk of electric shock.
• Ensure that the equipment is securely installed to avoid displacement or failure caused by vibration or external forces.
• When used in high temperature, high humidity, or corrosive environments, it is necessary to ensure that the protection level of the equipment meets the requirements to prevent equipment damage.

Summary:The 3EPK-I belt deviation switch provides reliable safety protection for the conveyor system with its high sensitivity and sturdy and durable design. It can effectively monitor the operating status of the belt, issue alarms or trigger shutdown functions in a timely manner, thereby preventing equipment damage and production accidents caused by belt deviation. It is an important device to ensure the safe and stable operation of the conveyor system.

Related Q&A FAQs:

1. How to adjust the detection angle of the 3EPK-I belt deviation switch?

The detection angle of the 3EPK-I belt deviation switch can usually be set by adjusting the adjustment mechanism on the equipment. When adjusting, it is necessary to ensure that the equipment is in a power-off state to avoid the risk of electric shock. The range for adjusting the angle is generally ± 10 °, which can be set according to the actual operation of the belt. After adjustment, it is recommended to conduct testing to ensure that the device can accurately trigger alarm or shutdown functions in practical applications.

2. Is the 3EPK-I belt deviation switch suitable for explosion-proof environments?

The standard protection level of the 3EPK-I belt deviation switch is IP65, which is suitable for dust and waterproof requirements in ordinary industrial environments. But when used in explosion-proof environments, special attention should be paid to the explosion-proof certification of the equipment. If the working environment contains flammable and explosive gases or dust, specialized explosion-proof models need to be selected to ensure that the equipment meets relevant explosion-proof safety standards.

3. 3. How to perform daily maintenance on the 3EPK-I belt deviation switch?

When maintaining the 3EPK-I belt deviation switch on a daily basis, the following points should be noted:

Appearance inspection: Regularly inspect the switch housing for damage, cracks, or corrosion to ensure that the housing is intact.
Sensor cleaning: Clean the surface of the sensor to prevent dust or foreign objects from affecting detection accuracy. Use a clean cloth or air blow for cleaning.
Circuit inspection: Check if the wiring is secure and if the circuit is functioning properly. Regularly check the contacts and cables to ensure there is no looseness or wear.
Functional testing: Regularly conduct functional testing to ensure that the switch can accurately trigger an alarm or shutdown signal at the set offset angle.
It is recommended to conduct a comprehensive inspection and maintenance every 6 months to ensure the long-term stable operation of the equipment.
