Accessories - Multi yarn break sensor system

SYSTEM DESCRIPTION:

The Multi yarn break sensor system makes it possible to 

use multiple weft sensors on the feeders.

The sensors will detect possible yarn breakage on the 

feeder input side.

The central box (concentrator box) has connectors for 

feeders (4 connectors) and external yarn break sensors 

(8 connectors). 

PARTS:

The system consists of one concentrator box, power 

supply cable, extension cables and sensors.

INSTALLATION

Carefully follow instruction below for a secure 

installation.

Picture  on page 21 explains the numbers mentioned in  

the instruction. Appendix 1 & 2 show where to connect  

the sensors and feeder cables to the concentrator box.

A. Make sure that the loom main power has been 

    switched off.

 

B. Fixate the concentrator box (3) to the feeder stand.  

     Use the supplied screws (length M5x50).

C. Fixate the external yarn break sensors with tensioner* 

     (5) on the bobbin creel (one sensor per yarn).

D. Open the cover of the concentrator box and connect    

     the extension cable (2) between the external break   

     sensors and the concentrator box. One extension   

     cable per sensor must be used.

     It is important that the extension cables are conneted 

     to the correct connector in the concentrator    

     box. Use appendix 1 & 2 as a guide. 

* The tensioner is not indicated in the picture on next page
