SITRANS WS100
■ Overview
■ Application
SITRANS WS100 speed sensor operates in conjunction with a
conveyor belt scale, providing a signal to an integrator
(Milltronics BW100 or BW500, or SIWAREX FTC module) which
computes the rate of material being conveyed. It is lightweight at
1.22 kg (2.68 lb) and durable, for easy installation and prolonged bearing life.
The WS100 converts shaft rotation into a pulse train of 8 pulses
per revolution. These pulses are typically fed into a Milltronics
belt scale integrator. The integrator interprets the pulses and
uses them in the calculation of belt speed, flow rate, and material
totalization. In non-belt scale applications, the WS100 can be
used to monitor rotational speed when directly connected to a
PLC.
The WS100 IS (intrinsically safe) version contains an inductive
proximity switch which transmits the pulses via a switch isolator
for hazardous area locations.
■ Design
The input shaft on the SITRANS WS100 is coupled to the rotating
shaft on a belt-driven pulley with a tapped hole, and is externally
supported. The unit’s flexible arresting strap stops it from rotating with the shaft, without causing bearing stress, and can be fitted to any rigid member close to the sensor.

SITRANS WS100 speed sensor is a compact, medium-resolution, pulley shaft-driven belt speed sensor with magnetic mounting. It is ideal for aggregate and mineral processing industries.
■ Benefits
• Small, light-weight
• Good resolution for accurate measurement, suitable for
varying shaft speeds
• Long bearing life

When mounting, ensure the unit and the pulley shaft are concentric to avoid stresses on the unit’s bearings.
For mounting using the magnetic connector, ensure the face of
the rotating shaft on the belt driven pulley is flat, and has no
burrs or damage that may prevent flush mounting of the magnetic connector. Attach the SITRANS WS100 speed sensor to
the shaft; the magnetic connector will center itself as the belt
driven pulley rotates.
