T ypical Components of a Rod Dr op system
Driver Unit type AD8 This unit conditions and amplifies the signal from the probe. Rack type RA8606 Blank Panels type MO8600 Extension Cable type AEXC Driver Housing type DH Series Standard 19” rack to hold up to 6 dual channel monitor modules.Can be panel mounted or to fitstandard 19” enclosures. for spare positions in racks. Connects the probe to the driver unit.As a ‘tuned’ system,extension cables areavailable in certain set lengths,choice of length is entirely dependent on the machine layout and positioning of the driver
housing. Basically a
junction box that holds the driver unit.If the layout of the compressorallows,then 2 drivers can be housed in Interconnecting Cable Zener Barriers Monitor Module type M08604 Sentry Set Up Software A Communications Cable for Intrinsically Safe applications.Note the barriers and monitors need to be mounted in non-hazardous areas. to connect the drivers signals to the monitors.We recommend BS5308 armoured individuallyscreened twisted pair cable.This is best supplied locally although Sensonics can provide it if required. is used to configure the monitor modules (the most commonly used functions eg alarmlevels,etc can be adjusted from the front panel of the monitor module without the need for the set-up software). is also provided to connect a laptop PC to the module for set up purposes. provides a display,outputs and alarms for
industrial compressor rod drop.Modules are dualchannel and so one is required for every two probes or cylinders.Each module is programmed with a scaling factor for
a particular compressor. 1 box.Standard unit is painted steel,(SS an option) sealed to IP66 and suppliedwith stuffing glands for probe cables. Probe Holder type ECPH Probe type AECP04 This is the sensing element of the system,with a measuring range of 4mm, Aluminium body (standard) or ECPH stainless steel body (when required). 1 off is required foreach cylinder.Probes are supplied with 500mm unarmoured cable and integral connector. 1 off isrequired for each probe.This item is fitted through the distance box of the compressor and holds the probe at the
correct position over the surface of the rod.Adjustment of the probe position is possible from outside the distance box
by the mechanism of the probe holder.The length of the insertion piece can be from 30mm to 300mm max.
