SITRANS WS100 Speed Sensor

SITRANS WS100 speed sensor is a compact, medium-resolution pulley shaft-driven belt
speed sensor with magnetic mounting. It is ideal for aggregate and mineral processing
industries.
This small, light-weight speed sensor features:
• Good resolution for accurate measurement, suitable for varying shaft speeds
• Long bearing life
Eight pulses are generated for each rotation of the SITRANS WS100 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 SITRANS WS100 IS (Intrinsically Safe) speed sensor contains a Pepperl + Fuchs,
NAMUR rated, inductive proximity switch, model number: NCN4-12GM-35-N0. The
proximity switch detects the pulses, and transmits a signal to the integrator via the
associated Switch Isolator.
The SITRANS WS100 works with the following Siemens integrators:
• Milltronics BW100
• Milltronics BW500
• SIWAREX FTC
• Competitive integrators – consult your local Siemens representative
SITRANS WS100 sensors can also be used with older model Siemens integrators:
• Compuscale
• Compuscale II
