INTRODUCTION & OVERVIEW
The
TC50A
controller sold by Sioux Tools, Inc. has been
developed to address the industry need for a controller that
provides NIST traceable torque validation (date and time
stamped), is easy to program and is available with common
network-ready hardware using industry standard protocols.
The
TC50A
provides precise torque control as well as multiple
parameter set capability and “poka-yoke” error proofing to
standard pulse and impact tools.
Compact in design, the
TC50A
provides operator feedback via
a large digital display and tri-color LED’s for fastener counting,
parameter set identification and joint condition status. There are
OK / NOK indicators for finished cycle or batch evaluation and
an audible (108 db) alarm for out-of-spec conditions. With eight
parameter sets allowing different counts and application set-
ups, one tool can be set to perform various applications using
its full torque range saving time and installation costs. One or
more tools can be attached to a single controller to cover a
broad torque range or for repair station applications.
The
TC50A
controller is compatible with all major brands of
industrial pulse tools and is available to control tools ranging
from 1/4" drive to 1" sq drive; regardless of torque requirement.
The standard software program controls pulse tools (any non-
shut off pulse tool; no need for shut-off, trim valves or pulse
pack adjustments) and impact wrenches.
The
TC50A
is available with optional software programs to
control direct-drive stall air tools such as clutch operated tools
and tube-nut wrenches.
II.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
The issue of operator safety is of maximum importance from
both the attitude of ergonomic comfort as well as electrical
safety.
ALWAYS INSURE THAT THE POWER CORD IS PLUGGED
INTO A GROUNDED OUTLET THAT CONFORMS TO NA-
TIONAL ELECTRIC CODE STANDARDS.
The
TC50A
controller operates from a wide range of electrical
supply voltage. It will operate from an input range of 100 VAC to
240 VAC and is self adjusting. The power consumption of the
controller is less than 1 amp at 110 VAC. The chassis as well as
the enclosure is grounded through the power cord. The internal
power requirements of the
TC50A
controller are at or below 12
VDC and employs a CE approved power supply that is UL
listed.
DO NOT DEFEAT THE GROUNDING PIN ON THE PLUG OR
SUBSTITUTE A CABLE THAT DOES NOT CONFORM TO THE
POWER AND SAFETY REQUIREMENTS OF THE SYSTEM.
