Medium Duty Belt Driven Live Roller Photo Eye Accumulating Conveyor
Driving Belt — Black PVC 120 belt.
Bed — Roller bed width between frames, 15", 21", 27", 33" and 39". NOTE: Shown 7" x 1½" x 12 gauge powder painted formed steel channel frame, with Optional bolted together with butt couplings and floor supports. Frame Center-mounted sections are 10'0" and 5'0" long. Drive.
Tread Rollers — 1.9" diameter x 16 gauge galvanized steel rollers spaced on 2¼" or 3" centers. Safety pop-out design prevents dam- age to product or harm to personnel if caught between belt and tread rollers.
Pressure Rollers — 1.9" diameter x 16 gauge galvanized steel rollers with 7/16" Hex Shaft spaced on 6" and 12" centers. Raised by air to drive tread rollers, lowered when sensing device is activated.
OPTIONAL EQUIPMENT Sensing Device — Photoelectric sensor in each zone detects presence of product and activates accumulation feature in the trailing zone if Center Drive - Mounted below conveyor bed section. Can be placed leading zone is occupied. most anywhere in conveyor length.
Power Supply — 120 VAC power supply controls accumulation feature Floor Supports - Higher or lower supports available. Minimum ele- with 24 VDC output. Power supply will control 40 accumulation zones. vation with standard end drive, 25".
Air Requirements — Operating pressure is 20-35 psi on main trunk line.
Accumulation Zones — 18” long, air operated. Note: Zone length must be evenly divisible by roller centers.
Accumulation Zones — 24”, 30”, or 36” long, air operated. Conveyor frame lengths change with zone lengths. NOTE: Zone length must be Roller Brakes - (4) rollers per zone. evenly divisible by roller centers.

Motor — Single phase, energy efficient, explosion proof, etc.
Other HP Snub Roller — 2½" diameter adjustable mounted directly behind drive available. pulley, 2" diameter adjustable mounted directly behind tail pulley.
Electrical Controls — Magnetic starters and push button stations; Floor Supports - Adjustable 31½" to 45½" from floor to top of roller. manual motor starters with overload protection, others. One support supplied at each end of conveyor and at each bed joint.

However, most efficient accumulation occurs at 60 FPM. If Zone #1 is occupied, the second load will stop in Zone #2. Load #3 will stop in Zone #3 and continue to accumulate at “zero pressure”until fully Capacity - See Load Capacity Chart. 150 pounds max. unit load. loaded. 3) To unload, an external signal (normally open contact, not supplied) to the photoelectric sensor in Zone #1 will release the accumulation feature and allow the product in Zone #1 to leave the conveyor. The load in Zone #2 will not advance into Zone #1 until the load in Zone #1 has completely cleared Zone #1’s photoelectric sensor; the third load will not advance into Zone #2 until the second load clears the photoelectric sensor in Zone #2. Once the first load clears the photoelectric sensor in Zone #1, the external signal must be restored to Zone #1’s photoelectric sensor for the accumula- tion process to continue.
