Speed Switch Testing Device allows sensor to remain in place.
January 18, 2012 -
Speedmaster(TM) device tests calibration of speed switches and their alarm and shutdown underspeed relays. Input mode provides user with machine's actual running speed, and output mode allows user to test speed switch at set underspeed trip points for real time verification of monitoring system. Designed for testing in bucket elevators and conveyors, sensor remains in place on machine shaft during testing and no system connections need to be changed to use Speedmaster.

SpeedMaster(TM) - Speed Switch Testing & Calibration Device
EAST PEORIA, ILLINOIS. 4B Components Ltd., a worldwide manufacturer of material handling and electronic components for bucket elevators and conveyors, has developed a new maintenance tool that makes the testing of speed switches quick, easy and accurate.
The SpeedMaster(TM) is the only device that accurately tests the calibration of speed switches and their alarm and shutdown underspeed relays. The SpeedMaster(TM) operates in two modes; input mode provides the user with the machine's actual running speed, and output mode allows the user to test the speed switch at set underspeed trip points for real time verification of the monitoring system. There is no need to remove the sensor from the machine shaft or change any system connections in order to use the SpeedMaster(TM).
"This new Patent Pending technology will change the way plants use underspeed monitoring systems and will make the plants safer" says Johnny Wheat, 4B Senior Vice President.
