SITRANS WS300 speed sensor overview

SITRANS WS300 speed sensor is a low- to high-resolution shaft driven speed sensor. It
measures the shaft's rotation by sending pulses to the integrator. The WS300 is certified for
use in hazardous and non-hazardous locations.
This small, light-weight speed sensor features:
● Optional resolutions for accurate measurement over a range of belt speeds
● Long bearing life
● Corrosion resistance
Pulses are generated for each rotation of the WS300 shaft. 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.
The WS300 works with the following integrators:
● Milltronics BW100
● Milltronics BW500
● SIWAREX FTC
● Competitive integrators - consult your local Siemens representative
The WS300 sensors can also be used with older model Siemens integrators:
● Compuscale
● Compuscale II
● Compuscale IIA
● Compuscale III
● Compu-M
