REED SWITCH:
It is proximity Switch.
Its contacts alter their state when it encounters “magnetic field”.
CONTACT TYPES IN REED SWITCHES:
There are three types of contacts in different reed Switches:
S= normally open
O= normally closed
R= bi-stable
The reed Switches on lime stone stacker line-II are all R (bi-stable)
type.
HOW REED SWITCHES WORK?
Let we take a reed switch BN20-2rz
It is a bi-stable double contact reed switch
If the contacts of reed switch are opened initially and we pass it in front of north pole in
right direction, contacts will close as shown below:
If we further pass it in front of north pole magnet its contacts will remain close in right
direction
Now if we pass it in front of South Pole, contacts will open,
If we further pass it in front of South Pole contacts will remain open
Figure 1

In the same fashion , if we reverse the motion of direction of reed switch on left side,
opposite thing will happen as shown below
ACTUATOR MAGNET IDENTIFICATION:
The type of magnet used are BP21N & BP21S
North Pole magnet color is green
South Pole magnet color is red
Here 2xBP21N & 2xBP21S are used
The purpose to use double magnets is to make the magnetic field strong
SENSING RANGE:
The sensing range of the Magnet is 35mm
If two Magnets are used together i.e. SS or NN, the range extends to 50 mm

BN20-2RZ:
BN20-2rz is a reed Switch with 2 bi-stable contacts.
Its contact alters their state by either facing North Pole or South Pole of magnet in
specific direction.
BN20-2RZ WITH NORTH POLE MAGNET:
If BN20-2rz is passed in front of North Pole magnet in right direction, its both contacts
closes if they are opened before otherwise no effect. As shown in figure 2.
If BN20-2rz is passed in front of North Pole magnet in left direction, its both contacts
opens if they are closed before otherwise no effect. As shown in figure 2
Reed switch change their present state when they have fully crosses the magnet
BN20-2RZ WITH SOUTH POLE MAGNET:
The distance between magnet and reed Switch is 35mm
South Pole magnet color is red
If BN20-2rz is passed in front of South Pole magnet in right direction, its both contact
opens if they are close before otherwise no effect. As shown in figure 3.
If BN20-2rz is passed in front of South Pole magnet in left direction, its both contact
closes if they are opened before otherwise no effect. As shown in figure 3
Reed switch change their present state when they have fully crosses the magnet

BASIC DIFFERENCE BETWEEN NORTH & SOUTH MAGNET EFFECT (figure 4)
ON MOVING THE REED SWITCH IN RIGHT DIRECTION:
North Pole magnet closes the contact, while South Pole magnet opens the close contacts
ON MOVING THE REED SWITCH IN LEFT DIRECTION:
South Pole magnet closes the contact, while North Pole magnet opens the close contacts
BN20-11RZ:
BN20-11rz is a reed Switch with 2 bi-stable contacts one NO & one NC.
Its contact alters their state by either facing North Pole or South Pole of magnet in
specific direction.

WORKING OF PILZ RELAY:
ALL EMERGENCY CHANNELS CLOSED:
If all the input channels are closed and the momentarily 24VDC pulse signal is applied at
start/reset terminal (-S13-S14), the output contacts K1 & K2 will be closed and auxiliary contact
(41-42) will be open. As shown in figure 7.
BREAKING OF EMERGENCY CHANNEL:
If ever any one input channel is opened or broken the output contacts K1 & K2 will be opened.
As shown in figure 8 the input channel S31& S32 is opened, the Output contacts K1 & K2 are
opened.
Figure 8
Figure 7
16. 15
CONDITIONS TO RESET THE PILZ:
To reset or close the output contacts again there are two conditions to full fill.
(1) Close all the input channels as shown in figure , contact K1 is closed & the channel 1
LED glows up
(2) Apply the 24VDC pulsed signal to the reset/start terminals S13,S14 i.e close the loop
S13,S14 momentarily, contact K2 is closed as in figure and LED of channel 2 glows up
(3) Input channels loop should always be in closed condition for running of machine, if it
opens ever, machine stops.
(4) The start/reset loop is just pulse operated

Priority setting in Pilz :
If there are two Pilz
Pilz 1
Pilz 2
Let the Pilz 1 has the 1st
priority and Pilz 2 has the 2nd
priority.
Close all the input channels of Pilz 1
Apply the start pulse 24VDC at S13,14 at Pilz 1
Pilz 1 output energizes the relays Q1,Q2 (figure below ), which will close the input
(emergency) channel (by means of Q1,Q2 contacts) of Pilz 2
Note: Here until Pilz 1 output contact K1,K2 are not activated, the Pilz 2 is not going to operate.
Most important emergencies are at the first priority Pilz 1.

What is shaft encoder?
Encoder is an electromechanical device
Measure motion, position & direction
Most encoders use optical sensors to provide electrical signals in the form of pulse
These pulses, in turn, be translated into motion, direction or position
Types of encoder:
Basically there are two types of encoder
Incremental encoder:
It is also called quadrature encoder
Incremental encoder is designed for the direction of motion.
It gives incremental train of pulses by two channels A, B.
Incremental encoder’s disc is shown figure 1.
Absolute encoder:
Absolute encoder is specially design for the detection
of absolute position.
Absolute encoder uses a disk with concentric circle patterns.
Absolute encoder’s disc shown in figure 2.
NOTE: In lime stone stacker L-II Incremental Encoder (Type 2R) is being used.
Characteristics
Encoder Type: Shaft encoder
SMD-Technology: Strong compact electronic
IP: Standard IP=65, optional 67
Thermal protection: Shutdown at temperature 1550
& above
Wide supply Range: 4V to 30V
Strong construction: Base on 2 ball bearings, for harsh environment
Construction of encoder:
Shaft encoder consists of:
Housing assembly
A rotating disc attached to shaft
Light source
Photo detector (usually photo transistor)
Electronic circuit
Figure 1
Figure 2
23. 22
Working of encoder (Type 2R):
In figure 4 the white cells are transparent, light is transmitted through them & is sensed
by the sensor
There are 3 channels in the Type 2R encoder A, B, Z
The duty cycle of the channel A & B is 180 electrical degrees.
The duty cycle of channel Z is 90 electrical degrees
The phase difference between channels A & B is 90 electrical degrees.
Channel A & B have 10 pulses in one full rotation Channel Z has one pulse in one
rotation as shown in figure there are 10 transparent segments/channel
In clock wise rotation the channel B leads A by 900
as shown in figure 5

24. 23
In counter clock wise rotation channel A leads B by 900
as shown in figure
Why channel A & B?
An encoder with one set of pulses would not be useful because it could not indicate the
direction of rotation.
Using two code tracks with sectors positioned 90° out of phase the two output channels
of the encoder indicate both position and direction of rotation.
If A leads B, for example, the disk is rotating in a clockwise direction.
If B leads A, then the disk is rotating in a counter-clockwise direction.
By monitoring the number of pulses & the relative phase of signal A & B we can track
both position and direction of rotation.
By the frequency of pulses we can also track the speed of motor because as disc speed
varies, the frequency of pulses also varies.

DESCRIPTION:
The displacement transducer, in its most elementary form, consists of a fixed part and a
mobile part.
The mobile part is attached to the external mobile contact, while the fixed part acts as a
reference.
TYPES:
Several types of transducers are available in the market. Their differences reside in the method
used to identify the relative value against the reference value. Some examples of transducers
are:
Differential Reluctance Transducer
Magnetic transducer
Optical transducer
Resistive transducer
Here we are concerned with differential variable reluctance transducer.
DIFFERENTIAL VARIABLE RELUCTANCE TRANSDUCER (LDI 260 FLS18)
This transducer works on the principle of differential variable reluctance
It is a linear transducer
It is made by HF JENSEN
Its type is LDI 260 FLS18 and the amplifier used with it is ICA FLS18
What is reluctance?
Reluctance is the analogous of resistance.
Reluctance is the measure of opposition of two opposite magnetic fields.
Electric field creates current & current faces resistance.
Magnetic field creates flux & flux faces reluctance
WORKING OF SENSOR
Sensor consists of two parts, stationary and
mobile.
Stationary part is clamped with stationary part of
the stacker and mobile part is attached to the jib of
stacker.
There are two coils in series with each other inside
the stationary tube.
There are three (3) terminals at sensor
1(Green) is connected to Vin+, 2(Blue) is connected to Vb- & 3(Red) is
connected to Vb+
28. 27
.When the core is at center position of the coils, self-induction of two coils
is same.
When the core goes in either direction by the movement of stacker jib, the
self-induction of the coils goes in opposite direction.
Amplifier (ICA FLS18)
Amplifier is fed on 24 Vdc
Jumper setting of the amplifier is shown below.
We are using the jumper setting A.
This jumper setting is to get 4-20mA, 5VDc output and gain of 1.
We have used the ½ bridge configuration in the sensor
connection, in which two coils are used in series with
each other.
There are three terminal of sensor with following
colors.
The following diagram illustrate amplifier & its connections with sensor &
output

What is ultrasonic?
The sonic (audible) range of sound for human is 20 to 20 kHz.
If the sound has the frequency greater than 20 kHz, it is called ultrasonic.
Working principle
Ultrasonic sensors generate high frequency sound waves and evaluate the echo which is
received back by the sensor, measuring the time interval between sending the signal and
receiving the echo to determine the distance to an object.
