Product Description Product Description Device description The rotational speed monitor KFU8-DW-1.D is a device for displaying and monitoring periodical signals which occur in almost all areas of process automation, i.e. from general frequencies to specific speeds. The input signals are evaluated and converted into a frequency or speed by a powerful -controller in accordance with the cycle...
Page 12
KFU8-DW-1.D Product Description The monitoring function is actuated by a limiting value, whose upper and lower hysteresis values can be selected within the relevant measurement and indicating range. The output signal is generated by a changeover relay when the value exceeds or falls below the hysteresis limits.
Page 13
Insulation co-ordinates for specifying data on galvanic/electrical isolation are in accordance with DIN EN 50178: The KFU8-DW-1.D device is intended for use in enclosed electrical operating areas, to which only competent electrical personnel or properly instructed electrotechnical personnel have access or entry.
Page 14
KFU8-DW-1.D Product Description The circuits in this component device are separated from mains by reinforced/double insulation (basic + supplementary). There is no isolation between the signal circuit connections and the exposed/contactable surfaces.
KFU8-DW-1.D Operation Operation Operating mode Signal frequency The rotational speed monitor processes input signals from 0.002 Hz ... 40 kHz, over 4 measurement ranges. Cycle durations of 25 µs to 500 s are evaluated. Signals not having a duty rate of 1:1 must have a minimum pulse pause or pulse duration of 12 s in order to be...
Page 16
KFU8-DW-1.D Operation Note! Select a wider measurement range. Very low signal frequencies, displayed value is not valid, message During the measurement of very low signal frequencies, the measuring system has detected that the signal has fallen below the last computed frequency. The time between the last two signal edges has already elapsed.
KFU8-DW-1.D Operation Error message Note! If, when switching on again, the error message appears, then the factory presets were loaded. 1. Enter the parameters again. 2. Switch the device off and back on again. The normal function of the output relay is restored.
Page 18
KFU8-DW-1.D Operation The signal frequency calculated from the cycle duration is mul- tiplied by 60 and displayed in rpm. Specify the hysteresis limits of the switching point in rpm. Pulse divider (factory preset: 1 pulse/revolution) Applications involving slow processes are frequently equipped with sensors which provide several pulses per revolution.
Page 19
KFU8-DW-1.D Operation By programming the pulse divider to 10 pulses/revolution, the display would indicate the actual drive speed of 450 rpm. Display and measurement range (factory preset: 0 ... 999,9) Four measuring and display ranges are available for frequency measurement and three measuring and display ranges are available...
Page 20
KFU8-DW-1.D Operation Message This message appears when an attempt has been made to change the range in such a way that previously input limiting values lie outside the display and measuring range, or the respective places following the decimal point would be cut off.
KFU8-DW-1.D Operation Example: On exceeding the maximum permissible rotational speed of 600.5 rpm signal should be activated in the control room. The alarm message should then extinguish when the speed drops below 500 rpm. Set the upper hysteresis limit to 600.5 rpm and the lower hysteresis limit to 500 rpm.
Page 22
Timer function and reversing the detection direction (factory preset: 0) The KFU8-DW-1.D rotational speed monitor in combination with a reversal of the direction of action can be adjusted to any one of 10 different settings in order to modify the switching behavior of the output relay.
Page 23
KFU8-DW-1.D Operation The OFF delay causes the relay to operate immediately after the upper limiting value is exceeded. Each time the measured parameter falls below the lower limit, the timer is started and as soon as the timer runs out the relay switches off (retriggerable).
Page 24
KFU8-DW-1.D Operation Example: In normal operation, a machine requires a maximum of 50 s to run up to a nominal speed of 500 rpm. Set the startup override time to a value greater than 50 s. When the period of 50 s has elapsed, the underspeed monitoring function (relay function 5) is active.
