INSTRUCTIONS: VEGA Cod: DYN35.05 Date: 25-02-2013 Check: 05 3 WORKING PRINCIPLES. The governor is of the centrifugal type and is able to work either upwards or downwards. The governor is fixed directly to the floor in the machine room or in the upper part of the well, joined by the rope to its tensing pulley located in the pit.

INSTRUCTIONS: VEGA Cod: DYN35.05 Date: 25-02-2013 Check: 05 The tension weight is secured to the guide rail by flanges. The rope must have enough tension (500 N on each side). In the event of tension loosening a rope slackening contact (1) connected to the installation...

INSTRUCTIONS: VEGA Cod: DYN35.05 Date: 25-02-2013 Check: 05 Due to the weight of the masses, the contact is protected from knocks by the part to which it is attached, therefore, the sensor cannot be damaged. The tension weight assembly can be attached to both sides of the guide rail.
INSTRUCTIONS: VEGA Cod: DYN35.05 Date: 25-02-2013 Check: 05 As indicated, if the tightness would be less than acceptable, the bar supporting the weight and the pulley would make contact with the sensor. 3.1 OVERSPEED CONTACT. The governor has a built-in overspeed contact.
INSTRUCTIONS: VEGA Cod: DYN35.05 Date: 25-02-2013 Check: 05 For rated speeds above 1 m/s, the overspeed switch must be triggered at a speed above the rated speed, bellow tripping speed of the governor. The contact (2) is shown in the right picture.

INSTRUCTIONS: VEGA Cod: DYN35.05 Date: 25-02-2013 Check: 05 • Solenoid fed by 24 V DC (direct current). A current of 1,1 A must be provided. • Solenoid fed by 48 V DC (direct current). A current of 0,75 A must be provided.
3.4 UNCONTROLLED MOVEMENT UCM DEVICE As a result of application of the new lift standard EN-81-1:1998+ A3, the Vega governor is fitted with a system that can be used to prevent uncontrolled car movement (UCM). This system is called the Parking System.

The pins therefore remain in the governor locking position. The figure shows a Vega speed governor fitted with the parking system. 3.4.1 PARKING SYSTEM CONTROL SENSOR: As can be seen in the figure above, the parking system is fitted with a control sensor.
Page 24
In the event of uncontrolled car movement, the governor and the parking system will transmit the force to the safety gear in order to stop the car. Dynatech currently offers 2 types of parking system. These systems are described below: •...

INSTRUCTIONS: VEGA Cod: DYN35.05 Date: 25-02-2013 Check: 05 The distance of the governor may be shorter than that indicated, depending on the position of the locking part in the centrifugal system. Note: The Alfa parking system can be adapted to existing governors with no parking system.
Page 26
According to Point 9.11.7 of the Standard, uncontrolled movement must be detected by a switch. However, detecting uncontrolled movement using the Dynatech design is pointless, as the parking device remains activated when the car is at a standstill. (except in installations with door pre-opening and re- levelling).

INSTRUCTIONS: VEGA Cod: DYN35.05 Date: 25-02-2013 Check: 05 Use in installations with re-levelling over 20 mm: in installations with re- levelling over 20 mm, certified switching must be used to activate the electric magnet during the re-levelling process because if it re-levels by more than 20 mm then the governor could lock and the safety gear engage.

This governor is DOWNWARDS ACTING ONLY and the performance speed range is: 0.40 – 0.70 m/s IMPORTANT NOTE: Customers asking for a VEGA LS, may know that it´s unidireccional. In order to know the right way, it must pay attention to to the arrow in the governor.
INSTRUCTIONS: VEGA Cod: DYN35.05 Date: 25-02-2013 Check: 05 plate. The rope (3) and its position with respect to the base plate can also be seen in the drawing. 5 TECHNICAL FEATURES. Machine: Overspeed governor Model: VEGA Manufacturing company: DYNATECH, DYNAMICS & TECHNOLOGY, S.L.
INSTRUCTIONS: VEGA Cod: DYN35.05 Date: 25-02-2013 Check: 05 It can be unidirectional or bidirectional An encoder can be assembled (VEGA PLUS) Safety gears with which it may be used: All safety gears with a tripping speed that can be reached by the overspeed governor.

INSTRUCTIONS: VEGA Cod: DYN35.05 Date: 25-02-2013 Check: 05 For tripping speeds lower than 1 m/s, a low speed system is installed, where, as it is shown in the picture, the adjustment is made by means of a tensing screw that lengthen or shrinks the spring that is hooked to the...
