E. SwING-AwAy SwITCh (If 
AppLICABLE)

The Swing-Away Cutout Switch (Optional) is a pre-
wired switch mounted on the swing-away, bracket. 
Its purpose is to prevent the Metal Detector from 
tripping when the transmitter coil is hit by an over-
burden of material. Route the free end of this cable 
in the same conduit as the trans mitter cable to the 
Main Control Enclosure. Refer to the Control Con-
nection Diagram for hook-up.

f. CLIp DETECTOR (If 
AppLICABLE)

Install the Clip Detector Unit as follows:

•  Refer to Control Connection and Frame Assem­

bly Diagrams.

Position the Clip Detector Sensor approximately 
(but no closer than) 2' (610 mm) from the center 
line of the receiver coil on the upstream side of the 
Search Coil Assembly. If there are idlers adjacent 
to the search coils, position the Clip Detector Sen-
sor approximately 1” to 3" (25-76 mm) upstream of 
the nearest upstream idler before the Search Coil 
Assembly. The flat face of the Clip Detector should 
be facing toward the belt with approximately 1/2" 
-1" (12-25 mm) of clearance. This clearance 

must 

be maintained in order to assure proper operation. 
The Clip Detector should be a few inches (about 50 
mm) from the edge of the belt. 

Do not mount the 

Sensor too far from the edge, as tramp metal Iying 
close to the belt may trigger the sensor and pass 
through the search coils as a repair splice.

•  With  the  Clip  Detector  Sensor  in  the  proper 

posi tion below the belt, weld the 3/4” support 
pipe (provided) to the conveyor name. The pipe 
may be cut to the proper size for an easier fit. 
The multi-axis swivel joint will provide adequate 
move ment for proper adjustment.

•  It is recommended that the Clip Detector cable, 

running to the Main Control Enclosure be in-
stalled in conduit. The same conduit that houses 
the transmitter coil cable may be used.

•  Feed  the  Clip  Detector  cable  into  the  conduit, 

from the Clip Detector end to the Main Control 
Enclosure.

•  Cut off excess cable. Connect wires to terminal 

block (TB1) using the supplied spade lugs. Refer 
to the Control Connection Diagram for color code 
hook-up. Be certain all wires are attached secure-
ly and connected to their proper terminals.

•  Where metal repair clips are used two or more 

clips close together must pass directly over the 
Clip Detector Sensor in order to activate it. If a 
small patch of clips is used on the belt which 
would not pass directly over the Clip Detector, 
reference clips are required. Reference clips 
are made by installing two or more clips which 
will pass directly over the Clip Detector to trip it 
when a small patch passes by. Numerous repair 
and reference clips on the belt will degrade the 
Detector’s performance because it will frequently 
be in a desensitized mode.

G. MARkING DEvICE (If 
AppLICABLE)

The Marking Device is a pressurized solenoid 
activated liquid spray system which pinpoints the 
location of tramp metal to eliminate costly search 
and downtime.

SpECIfICATIONS
Tank Pressure Rating: 150 psig (maximum working 
pressure) (10 bar)
Tank Capacity: 3 Gallons (11.1 l) (liquid)
Operational Voltage: 115/220 (50/60 Hz), 15 Watts
Air: Plant air or any source of 100 to 200 psig inert 
gas (6.5-13 bar)

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
•  Refer to the Sensing Coil and Frame Assembly 

Drawing, for layout of the Marking Device on 
the belt.

•  Position the solenoid support upright and cross arm 

as shown. Distance from the coils should be 3’ to 
6' (.9 m to 1.8 m). Clamp in place temporarily
