8.7 Control of the driving belt at saturn 450/300
There are 20 light barriers within the saturn 450/300.
- 2 light barriers in front of the front roller for quick stop.
- 2 light barriers behind the rear roller for quick stop.
- 8 light barriers at each side under the treadmill for belt position control.
All light barriers are controlled by two Readers within the demand control.
Function belt position control:
Three of the light barriers on the left and right are connected to a SPS gear that adjusts the position of the rollers and
thereby the direction of the running belt.
The outmost light barriers (channel 4 and 8) are connected to an opener. If the running belt has moved too far to one
side, they are activated and the treadmill stops immediately. In this case please contact the h/p/cosmos service hotline.
For cleaning the lightbarriers switch off the treadmill.
N Do not touch the light barriers for belt control during the machine is switched on because of
uncontrolled reactions of the whole belt control system.
N Cleaning of the light barriers should be performed at least once per year within the preventive
maintenance performed by authorized technicans.
