- Dimensions: 120 mm (W) × 100 mm (H) × 80 mm (D)
- Weight: Approx. 0.75 kg
Functional Features:
- High-Precision Monitoring: Accurately collects speed signals to detect overspeed or underspeed conditions.
- Safety Interlock: rapidly outputs interlock trigger signals to the safety host for emergency shutdown.
- Signal Isolation: Built-in isolation circuits prevent ground loops and transient voltage impacts.
- Self-Diagnosis: Continuous monitoring of internal status and sensor health.
Application Scenarios:
- Petrochemical plants.
- Marine power systems.
- Generator sets and turbine protection.
- Hazardous area applications requiring SIL compliance.
Performance Parameters:
- Insulation Strength: ≥500 VAC
- Response Time: Fast fault signal transfer for emergency stops.
- MTBF: High industrial standard for continuous operation.
Material Composition:
- Sealed industrial enclosure.
- High-reliability electronic components with surge suppression.
Structural Features: Compact sealed structure with anti-loosening terminals. Features LED status indicators for Power, Operation, and Fault states.
Working Principle: The unit acquires speed pulses from magnetic sensors, filters and isolates the signal, and compares it against preset safety thresholds. If a threshold is breached, it triggers a safety interlock signal to the main controller.
Installation Requirements:
- Install on a standard 35mm DIN rail.
- Ensure the installation environment is free from excessive conductive dust.
- Connect shielded cables for sensor inputs to prevent interference.
Usage Notes:
- Compatible with Woodward MicroNet TMR systems.
- Verify the sensor type matches the input requirements.
- Regularly test the safety interlock function during maintenance windows.
