Electrical Grounding of the Conveyor Before commissioning the TB40, it must be electrically grounded. The grounding connection TB40 should be used for this purpose. This is mounted in a groove of the chassis. The grounding cable can then be connected between the two washers using a cable lug (included for grounding connection TB).
Assembly instructions BA-100154 TB40 Conveyor Setting the necessary pretension of the belt NOTE! The correct tension for a Conveyor Belt is shown on the nameplate attached to the belt drive, for example: 0.4% After the belt has been assembled and in its loose state, stick four measuring marks (M) on its upper surface in such a way that they are a distance (L) of e.g.
Assembly instructions BA-100154 TB40 Conveyor Belt Tracking (straight running of the transport belt) CAUTION! The belt must always run centered over the diverter roller and the drive roller. Under no circumstances may the edges of the belt project laterally over the ends of the rollers.
Assembly instructions BA-100154 TB40 Conveyor Conveyor Belt direction of travel CAUTION! The direction of travel of the belt must be observed when the belt ends have been joined by means of an overlapping weld joint (Thermofix). Position of the belt weld (Thermofix)
PLC speed mode (default) In PLC speed mode, the TB40 will be operated via digital and analog inputs on the motor using a PLC. Either the three stored speeds can be controlled or an analog speed setpoint can be specified.
6.1.1.1 Default values (factory-set) The belt speeds v1, v2 and v3 can be specified in the Conveyor Belt configurator at www.montech.com. If the belt speeds are not specified, the Conveyor Belt is delivered with the following values. The standard values can be changed subsequently using the operating and parameterizing unit MonTouch*.

See chapter output functions in general.
PLC position mode In PLC position mode, the TB40 can be operated via digital and analog inputs on the motor using a PLC. The speed is given to the conveying mode via the analog setpoint. In positioning mode, a defined distance is travelled.
Assembly instructions BA-100154 TB40 Conveyor 6.1.2.2 Speed setting via analog input AIN 1 (PLC position mode) The braking behavior in PLC position mode differs from the behavior in PLC speed mode. At the transition to the IN A = IN B = high state, the Conveyor brakes and returns to the position at the trigger point.

Assembly instructions BA-100154 TB40 Conveyor 7.2.2 Replacing belts by welding the ends The insertion of new belts into a Conveyor Belt with subsequent "welding” of the belt ends is recommended if accessibility is severely restricted for the operations described in the previous chapter. The prerequisite for this method of belt mounting is the availability of the necessary equipment for the "welding operation".
Assembly instructions BA-100154 TB40 Conveyor Conveyor Belt Maintenance and Cleaning 7.3.1 Maintenance In general, synthetic Conveyor Belts do not require any Maintenance besides cleaning. If anything, periodically checking the belt tension is recommended, especially in cases with difficult operating conditions (e.g. frequent starts under full load, major temperature or humidity fluctuations, etc.).
