Eltex weft sensor G3w

Product catalog summary
Overview: The Eltex G3w weft sensor is a device used in textile machinery to detect yarn movement using the piezoelectric principle. It converts yarn movement into an electrical signal for evaluation.
Features:
  • Low, rounded housing design.
  • Short distance between pivot point and eyelet for enhanced sensitivity.
  • High sensitivity to yarn movements and immunity to interference.
  • Allows large yarn angles without contact with the housing.
  • Equipped with a green LED to indicate yarn movement.
Technical Specifications:
  • Available with 4 or 8 eyelets.
  • Power supply: 24 V DC ±25%.
  • Current consumption: < 125 mA.
  • Connection: DB9 male.
  • Gain/sensitivity setting: 0–6.5 VDC external.
  • Current logic signal varies based on yarn movement.
Future Possibilities:
  • Flash memory for upgrades.
  • CAN bus interface for individual eyelet settings and statistics.
Replacement Compatibility: The G3w can replace older models like E2016, E2060, E2071, and E2070. Adapter connectors and cables are available.
Compliance: Conforms to EMC Directive standards EN 61000-6-4 (2001) and EN 61000-6-2 (2001).
Contact Information: Eltex has offices in Spain, USA, Ireland, Sweden, and China for support and sales.

A green light emitting diode indicates when a yarn is moving, The G*w weft sensor will detect single and double weft insertions, and also detect if too many wefts are inserted. ■ Features Low, rounded housing- » Short distance between pivot point and eyelet. » High sensitivhy to weft yarn movements. - High immunity to compressed air and electrical interfթrence. Allows a large yarn angle through the eyelets wrthout touching the aluminium housing. Օ Piezoelectric sensor with proven reliability. ■ Future possibilits -flash memory for potential future upgrading. CAN bus interface, whkh allows: ■ Individual setting for each eyelet for optimsed sensing performance. - Possibility of stat鉮stcs. Automatic gain setting.

E2O70, without gain potentiometer and used only for erther single or double weft insertion, can also be reptaced by theG^w. Eltex can supply adapter connecters and adapter cables. Please mention the part number to replace. The movement of the weft yarn is best detected if the yarn angle is 10-15° through the eyelet.
