Electronic thread sensor 435-08.021

Application

For use with all high-speed textile machinery (such as texturising and winding machines) for the purpose of monitoring all common types of yarn – particularly in cases when the detection process does not permit any additional forces on the thread.

Function

This thread sensor is used for reliably monitoring the yarn’s progress. If a thread is missing or stops, a direct signal is sent contactlessley to the connected load (thread cutter). As an option, information from the available logic output can be sent to an IV device/machine control in order to obtain access to numerous evaluation options. There is also an integrated sensor key with LED. This can be used to disable a pending output signal and the device will then become inactive (the logic output referred to above is not taken into account when the sensor key is pressed). The device will be automatically reactivated/resume its monitoring function when the thread starts running. Consequently, there is no need to press the sensor key again.
