APPLICATION

Kiepe Belt Misalignment Switches are used in conveyor instal- lations for monitoring the true running of conveyor belts. The switches, when mounted at the running edges of a conveyor belt, will be operated if the belt deviates from it’s designed running line by more than a permissable distance.

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

The switch enclosure consists of corrosion-resistant aluminium alloy. All external parts are either of stainless steel or have been especially plated. The actuating roller is of polyamide. All VG- types ars fitted with snap acting switches. The actuating head is removable from the main switch body and may be re-fitted in any of four positions. This, together with re-positioning of the switch trip bar allows the actuating roller to operate in any of four di- rections giving greater mounting versatility. All this will insure extremely safe operation, permitting to use the switch for severe operation and in outdoor installations.

The switches will then stop the conveyor drive, avoiding spillage of material or damage to the plant. The Belt Misalignment Swit- ches can be optionally supplied with a pre-alarm position for an alert signal at slight deviation and a final cut-out and lock.

No maintenance will be required. For the Models VG…/5 and 6 the switching point has been set at the manufacturer’s plant to approx. 12° from vertical and can be continuously readjusted in the field. The Model VG…/6 switch will latch as the admissible amount of out-of-line running is exceeded. It is unlatched locally by resetting the actuating roller. The VG 133/6 switch is equipped with two snap acting switches. An alert signal will be provided at approx. 12°, the final cut-out and latch will occur at 45°. For unlatching, the actuating roller is reset by hand.
