  • Page 8: Description

    Description Milltronics TASS overview The TASS trailing arm speed sensor is a compact, low-profile, wheel-driven return belt speed sensor. The TASS has a sensor wheel and trailing arm assembly that rides along the return belt. The sensor wheel rotates on a shaft fixed to the trailing arm. The internal proximity switch detects rotation of the wheel, generating a signal proportional to belt speed.

  • Page 10: Mounting

    Do not allow the slope of the TASS arm to exceed 45° below the belt stringer line. ① TASS ② Milltronics belt scale Note Ensure that the wheel is in contact with the belt at all times. Milltronics TASS Operating Instructions, 07/2018, A5E45488881-AA...
  • Page 11: Mounting Location

    Mounting 3.1 Mounting location Mounting location Locate the TASS near the scale assembly to simplify wiring. The wheel should ride on the return belt, either just before or just after a return belt idler. Milltronics TASS Operating Instructions, 07/2018, A5E45488881-AA...
  • Page 12: Connection

    Ensure that there is sufficient slack in the cabling to allow the TASS arm to pivot freely so the wheel rides on the belt. Restriction of the arm can cause slippage or excessive contact between the belt and the wheel.
