WIRE & CABLE At A Glance ACCUMULATORS VERTICAL AND HORIZONTAL A full line of Merritt Davis Electric accumulator systems with tension ranges as low as .05 ounces can be engineered to meet customer specifications. Accumulator systems are sold in both vertical and horizontal configurations. Horizontal accumulators can be floor or ceiling mounted, or arranged for mezzanine applications. All accumulators utilize a precision feed-back sensor to monitor trolley position for precise speed control. A variety of accessories are available to complete the installation. Sheave sizes range from 4 inch (100mm) ultra light weight to 60 inches (1,524mm) in diameter. Sheave materials include Delrin®, UHMW and aluminum. • Configured for either payoff or takeup operation • Continuous operation with no change in running tension • Available in single and double beam configuration based on wire range and tension requirements • PLC controlled for increased flexibility and reliability in matching the operation to the line • Designed to operate as a speed control dancer via position control (0-10VDC output) when operating in the open position (payoff) or in the closed position (takeup) www.davis-standard.com Guarding Not Shown

ACCUMULATORS cont. www.davis-standard.com AUTO-RATE-RETURN This circuit, on both vertical and horizontal models, utilizes a PLC which senses the trolley position to automatically adjust the payoff or takeup speed after restart for precision control of accumulator fill or evacuation speed. A proprietary algorithm adjusts the payoff or takeup speed to consistently achieve the same rate of fill or evacuation regardless of reel barrel size or build-down/up of wire. VERTICAL MODELS Standard models are available with 8 to 24 inch (200 to 600mm) diameter sheaves with accumulation capabilities up...
