Sitrans Ws300 Speed Sensor - Siemens SITRANS WS300 Operating Instructions Manual

SITRANS WS300 Speed Sensor

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
