The AIR-5 Wire Length Counter is designed to measure the distance a rotating sheave has travelled. The counter uses signals from a shaft encoder or a pair of proximity sensors fitted to the sheave.
The display module has a colour touch screen that is the operator interface. All adjustments, configuration and user interaction is carried out through this graphical interface. The display can be scaled in meters or feet and switched between the two without re-calibration. There is a marker that can be set to measure distance from a known point while still displaying the total distance travelled; this is a useful feature when positioning a clump weight for instance. Alarms can be set to warn the operator when nearing or exceeding a pre-determined point.
The display module connects to the sensor pack using a 2 twisted pair overall screened cable. This cable is terminated in an IP67 connector at the display module and through a watertight gland into the sensor pack.
The instrument records the distance data and alarm status every second in non-volatile memory. The built in storage is capable of recording a year’s continuous data, and if required, a larger data storage capacity can easily be installed.
The unit is powered from a nominal 24 VDC power source.
All the components are designed for use in a marine environment and the electronics meet the current European standards for electrical safety, electromagnetic emissions and immunity.
