    Julie; What is an acceptable number of missed pulses on a 200 car day? We exceed 99. Thanks

    Conveyor startup speed

    Where would I find the feet per pulse to see if that is within spec? So I have employees if someone stays in park they push the e stop until they get it into neutral. Will that effect it? I have the conveyor set to 900lbs which is what Belanger calls for. Can I get by upping that a bit...

    Conveyor startup speed

    What is considered acceptable for lost pulses? We get at least 99 per day. Then we get a warning of intermittent pulse come up and sometimes that screws up a wash. Everything starts late. The car is going faster than the pulse switch is telling the equipment to start. And sometimes it...

    Hi Earl; Mine will too, sometimes. W do send 2 rollers in case that happens. But it seems if I have 2 or 3 in the tunnel and the prepped car or more normally in my area, a bigger SUV or truck is in park it trips the E stop. Getting more rare since the preppers know to pay close attention to that.

    Thanks for the input JustaGuy. I'll get that cleared. We do have jams when people forget to put their vehicle in neutral usually that is a brief delay. But we will monitor to see if there is a correlation of those incidences and simulated pulse.

    Here are 2 readings. One at startup and one warmed up. It has been working OK the past 2 days. has not gone into simulated pulse on it's own. Any insight appreciated. Thanks

    max pulse time is set at 10.0 I am not sure what you mean by average pulse speed when operating at .45. It is the pulse switch that is giving me that reading. Do you mean I should check to see if it is accurate? Thanks

    Conveyor startup speed

    Thanks for the input. I have a hydraulic conveyor. Just put fresh ISO32 in it and it is just 2 years old. Always been something the employees have had to stay on top of. Earl, to answer your points. We have a pulse sensor on the drive sprocket watching the 4 bolts. Just replaced it and...

    Conveyor startup speed

    We have a 2 year old 95' tunnel with DRB controller and Belanger equipment. When we open in the morning, our conveyor is .34 fps and slowly gets up to .45 fps. Takes 2+ hours depending on how busy we are. Not a big deal except if the simulated pulse gets automatically activated at the slower...
