LEVEL CONTROLS

Robertshaw offers a complete line of RF and microprocessor based level controls for continuous and/or point level control. All our microprocessor based level systems consist of a sensing element and a patented PFM transmitter with remote mounted level controller. The transmitter requires no primary power as it is powered over the same two wires that transmit the digital pulses to the controller. Transmission ranges one (1) mile without the use of coaxial or triaxial cable. Solid State RF devices are single unit direct mount as well as remote mount. A variety of sensing probes are available to suit your applications; high temp/press, sanitary, flanged, inactive lengths, grounded for non-metal tanks, rigid, flexible, bare or insulated.

TEMPERATURE/PRESSURE REGULATING VALVES

Robertshaw SATR's (self-actuated temperature regulators) have thermal systems combining the responsiveness of vapor pressure and the positive action of liquid transmission. Sylphon© seamless metal bellows actuators are offered in three sizes to provide the correct combination of power, speed of response and stability for many temperature control applications.

The full range of available valve styles includes sizes 1/4" thru 6", single-seated and double-seated in selected sizes. Direct and reverse-acting valves are offered for heating or cooling service. A single-seated fully-balanced direct-acting valve style MA, is standard for 3/4" thru 2" sizes. Three-way valves are offered for blending, mixing, or diverting service. Robertshaw has now added stainless steel bodies in 1/2" thru 2".

Adjustable temperature ranges are provided from -35ƒ to as high as 480ƒF. Exact range limits and setpoint adjustment spans are determined by operating characteristics of individual regulator styles.

Temperature overrun protection is standard. A variety of thermal bulb styles and armored capillary tube lengths up to 50 feet are offered.

 

Model RT-1001-B1
 
Two-way-single-seated and double-seated valves, direct and reverse-acting. Three-way valves for mixing or diverting. Sizes 1/4" to 4" . Wide throttling band for maximum stability. Approximately 60ƒF spans from -20ƒF to 480ƒF.

Same valve selection as RT-1001-B1. Medium throttling band. More power and sensitivity than RT-1001-B1. Approximately 60ƒF spans between -25ƒF and 455ƒF. Available with thermometer integral with thermal system for indication. RT-1009 has override for manually positioning valve.
 
Model RT-1004 Series
 
Same valve selection as RT-1001-B1. Extra large actuating bellows for narrow throttling band, maximum power and sensitivity. Larger thermal bulbs. Approximately 45ƒF spans between 35ƒF and 425ƒF

VIBRATION SWITCHES & MONITORS

Robertshaw vibration detectors are designed to measure the total acceleratory shock present on a machine. Acceleration measurements made by the vibraswitch are the summation of all the individual accelerations giving a total destructive force acting on the machine - the result is positive protection. When the vibration level of a vibraswitch-protected machine exceeds normal operation by a pre-selectable amount, an internal switch closes, actuating a shutdown circuit before costly damages occurs.

The Robertshaw vibration equipment responds to destructive force, not displacement. The units give continuous protection for operating machines. There are no moving parts to wear out, ensuring long life of the instruments with no maintenance required.

Robertshaw Vibration Instruments can be used on rotating or reciprocating machines. To select the proper instrument for your machine, follow the link to Selection Guide Matrix and/or follow the steps below.

  1. Select the unit that meets the environmental conditions that your machine is located in [hazardous area (explosion-proof or I.S.) or non-hazardous; temperature range].

     
  2. Select the power supply and/or remote reset voltage required.

     
  3. Select the unit that provides you with the required measurement type, range and frequency for your machine. The type would be acceleration (G's) or velocity (IPS). The range would be the G range or IPS range. The frequency would be in Hertz (RPM of machine ÷ 60).

     
  4. If you require time delays (Start, Monitor or Start & Monitor delays – see note below), select the instrument that offers that feature. Models 375A/376A series offer fixed time delays; Model 566 offers adjustable Monitor Delay; Model 563A MUST BE used with Vibraswitch Model 366 or 365, and provides adjustable time delay for the units that are connected to the 563A Monitor. If time delay is not required proceed to step 5 below.

     
  5. Select the function that you desire:
    1. Alarm or shut down only by:
      1. Electrical SPDT or DPDT Switch Operation (Models 365/366, Models 375A/376A with Start Delay Only).
      2. Solid State Triac Switch Operation (Models 375A/376A except for Start Delay ONLY Model which has SPDT Switch Contacts).
      3. Pneumatic Operation (Model 368).
    2. 4-20 mADC output only (Models 570B/571A).
    3. 4-20 mADC output with alarm and/or shut down contacts, triac outputs (Model 566).

       
  6. Check to see if the Model selected above has a mounting configuration suitable for your application. All units are surface mount except for the following:
    1. Models 570B/571A are stud mount.
    2. Model 563A Monitor is used with the surface mount 365/366 Vibraswitches to provide adjustable start and monitor time delays.

       
  7. After you have made your selection, review the complete Product Specification Sheet to verify your selection is correct.

     

    NOTE:
    Start, Monitor, or Start & Monitor Delays are used to prevent unwanted shut down or alarm during start-up or normal operation of your machine.

    1. Start Delay: Prevents unwanted shut down when excessive vibration exists (which exceeds the set-point of the vibration switch or monitor) during the start-up of the machine.

       
    2. Monitor Delay: Prevents unwanted shut down when short excessive vibration spikes occur (which exceed the set-point of the vibration switch or monitor) during normal operation of the machine. Spikes are typically caused by detonation, cavitation, other machinery in the immediate area, etc.
