Characteristics
The non-contacting thermal switch unit (BTS) is a monitoring system for Voith turbo
couplings.
–
The BTS provides easy monitoring of the turbo coupling temperature.
–
In case of excess temperature, dependent on the application,
- the operator can be warned,
- the drive motor shutdown can be initiated,
- the load on the driven machine can be reduced.
–
If excess temperature is identified in time, the discharge or loss of coupling filling
through the fusible plugs can be avoided.
Downtimes are reduced.
–
After the turbo coupling has cooled down, the BTS resets automatically.
–
The BTS can be used for Voith turbo couplings from size 206.
If no isolating switch amplifier is used, there is the hazard of explosion.
As the control circuit of the evaluator is not
intrinsically safe, provide an
appropriate isolating switch amplifier between evaluator and initiator!
The BTS must not be used as safety device to limit the maximum permissible
surface temperature of the turbo coupling in potentially explosive atmos
