Construction and Operating Principle

1. Construction and Operating Principle

Speed transducer is designed for installation in brake motors of
sizes 63 to 180 (as per IEC Standard), with the brake
compartment being used for accommodation of speed transducer.

Speed transducer basically comprises mounting angle, pole wheel

with hub on motor shaft and inductive fork switch equipped with
two-wire cable.

Mounting angle is screwed to motor bearing shield in brake fixing

points. Depending on bearing shield design, from motor size 90,
spacer rings can be inserted.

Fork switch is positioned in center of VA steel pole wheel with 80%

depth of immersion.

Fork switch generates a pulse frequency on the NAMUR prin-

ciple, proportional to motor speed, which is used as speed signal
by the electronic evaluation system.

1.1. Double Signal Tap Construction and Operating Principle

1.1. Double Signal Tap

To enable a signal to be tapped in points of the pole wheel, two
mounting angles and two switch hooks are required.
Take these steps: Screw two mounting plates such that the straps
for accommodation of the selector forks are turned by one hole
pattern (120).

Note:
Depending on mounting plate design, it may be necessary to
recess one of the plates in one point.

For further installation and setting of the switch hooks, proceed as

described in the present documentation.

Maintenance 3.2. Aligning Fork Switch

2. Maintenance
Speed transducer is designed maintenance-free.

To exchange shaft sealing ring, or motor bearing, take these

steps:
n Remove fork switch as shown at Item 3.1 before dismounting
motor.
n Dismount motor fan wheel.
n Unscrew pole wheel hub clamping screw which affixes pole
wheel to motor shaft.
n Extract pole wheel from shaft.
n If mounting angle has to be removed, mark its points of attach-
ment to motor bearing shield.

3. Inspection and Maintenance

3.1. Replacing Fork Switch

To dismount fork switch, take these steps:

n Separate switch cable from terminal box or connector socket.

n If need be, unscrew flexible tube and pull out switch cable.
n Remove fan guard.
n Unscrew screw affixing fork switch to mounting angle.

3.2. Aligning Fork Switch

For proper immersion depth and center run of pole wheel, switch
has to be carefully aligned.

Take these steps:

n 80% immersion depth (corresponding to 7 to 8 mm) is mecha-

nically preset.
n Set pole wheel center run by displacing switch in its mounting
hole (slot).
n If switch is properly aligned, secure head of switch fixing screw
using Loctite or similar agent.
