6 Conveyor Speed Sensor Configuration
The calibration of the system configures the controller for the KG or LBS of material
discharging from the conveyor for every revolution of the conveyor speed sensor. As
the sensor transmits pulses, the controller needs to know how many pulses per
revolution are generated.
6.1 Setting the Pulses per Revolution
The pulses per revolutions generated by the conveyor speed sensor vary depending
on the make of hydraulic motor. The most common hydraulic motor makes and
matching pulses per revolution are as follows:
