Belt Trip System
BELT RIP DETECTION SYSTEM
The new Becker Mining Systems Belt Rip Detection System BRS 2 has been developed to help increase the productivity of conveyor belts by detecting belt rips as soon and as reliable as possible. To monitor steel cable and fibre belts, inductive loops need to be embedded in the belt.
Once installed the BRS 2 will detect the loops on the conveyor, define and number the loops and create its own image of the belt and its loops in real time.
The BRS 2 using its real time loop diagnostics continuously monitors the belts health and in the event of a rip, stops the belt and reduces any further damage and downtime.
Benefits
· German Engineering / Quality & design
· The 12 inch color screen allows the operator to see all parameters of the system
· 5 easy access shortcut buttons: Overview, Parameters, System messages, Operating data, Virtual keypad along with the Touch Pad (Mouse), allows operator / administrator access to all required system parameters for ease of set-up, configuration and maintenance
· Remote network access (TCP/IP) allows for remote monitoring from a PC
· Status of all coils shown in real time
· Monitor up to a of 1000 loops / coils on one belt
· Up to 4x monitoring stations if used in combination with slave units which can be connected to a Master via RS485 up to 1km away
· Every loop / coil status for the last ten revolutions are available in the master data log
· Operating data screen: Belt speed, CPU temp, environmental temp, voltage drain
· System log/history of the last 10,000 status changes allows for planned maintenance and post event investigations
· Forward and reverse capability reducing false trips and can be connected to prevent reverse running damage on the belt
· The system can be retro-fitted to existing belts, or supplied from belt manufacturers with coils / loops installed during manufacturing
· Modbus Interface allows for integration to existing SCADA systems on site
· Password protection to ensure system stability and access control to key parameters
· 3 x System Status Signal Lamps on the front of the Master panel, allows ease of recognizing system status showing System OK, Warning & Alert
