Chapter 1 Product Information
1.1 Introduction
The MCTC-PES-E1 is designed to provide multiple security monitoring protections for
escalators and moving walkways. It adopts dual-CPU control and judges the signals
related to the escalator or moving walkway simultaneously. Once detecting a fault, the two
CPUs instruct the safety relays to act and output the fault signal.
Furthermore, the two CPUs monitor each other. If one CPU breaks down or is damaged,
the other instructs the safety circuits to act immediately and output the corresponding
fault signal. The MCTC-PES-E1 has an LED operation panel, on which you can perform
operations such as parameter modification and working status monitoring.
The following figure shows the physical appearance of the MCTC-PES-E1.

1.2 System Components
The MCTC-PES-E1 is configured with a control board, a protective guard, and a switching-
mode power supply(the models are introduced in Table 1-1).
When installing the MCTC-PES-E1, six sensors and seven detection switches are required.
The sensor models are designated and sold by Monarch, while the detection switches are
decided by the customer. The recommended models of the sensors and detection switches
are introduced in Table 2-2.
◆
The MCTC-PES-E1 system is installed in the machine room of the escalator or moving
walkway. The installation environment must satisfy the requirements described in Table 1-2.
Monarch will assume no risk or responsibility if a fault occurs in the system because the
installation environment requirements are not satisfied.
◆
The switching-mode power supply provides power supply only to the components of the
MCTC-PES-E1 (including the control board and the connected sensors and detection
switches). It is prohibited to provide power supply to any other devices.
