TLDR
In this article, a dual-channel evaluation circuit is used to detect machine speed above or below a given limit value and uses a dual channel evaluation circuit coupled to the three machine winding phases (5,6,7).Abstract:
The monitor detects machine speed above or below a given limit value and uses a dual-channel evaluation circuit (11) coupled to the three machine winding phases (5,6,7). Each channel (12,13) of the evaluated circuit has two inputs (15,16;21,22) coupled to two different phases and a single digital output (17,23) providing a binary signal. The two binary signals are combined to provide an output signal which changes from a rest value to an active value when the limit value is exceeded. Pref. each channel of the evaluation circuit contains a voltage amplifier with a variable amplification and a precision rectifier. USE/ADVANTAGE - For asynchronous motor drive indicating abnormal speed to prevent overloading, without noise problems and without structural interference in or at machine.read more
