3.4 Trigger Bar
A position indicator is mounted on the colder end of the kiln and generates a trigger pulse once per revolution to
supply the CS400 system with data on the rotational speed of the kiln. The installer must mount a trigger bar onto
the kiln shell as shown in the figure below.
The maximum ambient temperature for the position indicator is 230°C (446°F). For installing the position indicator
