Automatic Longitudinal Tear Switch

Slit switches provide an alarm signal to the monitor or shut down the conveyor in case of tears, punctures, damaged junctions or sharp objects protruding from the belt.

Working principle:

The rip switches are mounted in pairs on both sides of the conveyor belt. They are connected by two sections of wire rope. One end of the wire rope is fixed to the support bracket and the other end is attached to the pull ring of the rip switch. The two sections of wire rope form a monitoring surface under the conveyor belt. When an object or torn belt is suspended down and swept down to  the wire rope, the wire rope pulls the tear switch pull ring to make it move and the tear switch sends out an alarm or stop signal. When an emergency occurs on the belt transport site, pull the aviation wire rope tied to the lifting lug to make the slider in the machine with the switch, and issue the stop signal. After loosening the wire rope, the switch automatically reset.


Installation and use:

The switch is balanced on the rack fixing bracket.

Install the switch on both sides of the tape in the right form, connect the two switch pull rings with the wire rope, and use the lifting ring to make the wire rope walk parallel to the tape.

Rope pulling action should be appropriate to ensure a reliable switch reset. Multiple pairs of switches can be installed with one tape.

Mounting brackets are not supplied with the switch and need to be purchased separately.
