Operating Instructions
REOVIB 506
Thyristor control unit for use with vibratory feeder units
The REOVIB 506 range of control units are suitable for powering vibratory feeders which have a mechanical vibrating frequency
which is the same as, or double that of mains frequency. The adjustment of feeder throughput is achieved by using a triac with
phase angle control. The setpoint for the feeder throughput can be derived from a potentiometer. The set point range can be
adjusted to suit the feeder unit by using trimmers (see "effects of trimmers Umin/Umax").
The units can operate with feeders which have a mechanical vibrating frequency 50 Hz or 100 Hz, ie 3000/6000 vibs/min (for 60 Hz
mains supply this would be 60 Hz or 100 Hz, ie 3600/7200 vibs/min). The vibrating frequency is determined internally. An enable
input is provided on terminals 1 and 2 for power free switching of the output (eg from a PLC).
To prevent surges when the unit is switched on, a soft starter is provided. This sof starter becomes effectif with all switchings
(mains "ON", enable "ON") and with set point adjustment. The semiconductors are protected against short -circuit current by an
internal short-circuit fuse.
The output voltage of the unit is fed back internally and compared with the adjusted set point in a regulating device. Deviations
which may be caused by mains variations or load changes are adjusted correspondingly.
The unit is supplied in a simple to install modular housing which is suitable for DIN rail mounting (EN 50022-35). The terminals have
safety covers, according to VBG 4 standards.
