Introduction
This manual starts with the assumption that you have already determined which type of Mathews chain driven live roller conveyor you require. A chain driven live roller conveyor is a conveyor where the product rides directly on the carrying rollers. These carrying rollers have sprockets welded to them, which in turn are powered by a chain. This manual will explain the various types of Mathews chain driven live roller conveyors manufactured by Mathews. In this manual we will describe the following types of chain driven live roller conveyors: 1. Single Strand Chain Driven Live Roller 2. Roller to Roller Chain Driven Live Roller In this manual, you will note that we are depicting standard units, illustrating the components from which they are assembled, as well as offering a description of these various components. Also included are descriptions of supports and accessories for each type of conveyor. Due to the physical design of the chain driven live roller, we will be referring to two different types of conveyor width. These are Effective Conveying Width and the Between Frames Dimension. See the drawing below: For the various sizes of CDLR, the width of the chain box will also vary and the effective conveying surface will always be less than the between frames dimension. When selecting equipment, be sure this aspect has been considered. In order to properly evaluate chain driven live roller, we will break it down into the two types, single strand chain driven live roller and roller to roller chain driven live roller.

Engineering Data

Single Strand CDLR


As the name implies, it consists of a single strand of chain traveling over sprockets welded to the rollers. There is only one sprocket per roller. Contact with the sprocket teeth is maintained by a continuous cover plate and hold down. The chain is also returned in this chain box. Because of limited tooth engagement, this type of CDLR should not be used for start-stop applications and only with moderate unit loads. There are several product features that will determine the conveyor specifications:

Product Width - Straight Conveyor


The effective conveyor width should be approximately 3" wider than the widest product to be conveyed, then select the next larger standard width conveyor. For single strand chain driven live roller, our standard effective conveying widths are 15", 21", 27", 33 and 39. In the single strand CDLR, the between frames dimension is always effective conveying width + 2". Example: 23" wide product + 3" = 26" Next larger standard is 27" Effective Conveying Width or 29" Between Frames

Product Width - Curves


Many times curves in a system will dictate the width of the conveyor for the entire system, in that the product may require additional space to negotiate the turn. This additional space depends upon the width and length of the product. The chart below shows the conveyor widths required to convey product around a curve. The conveyor widths are listed based on our standard radii for the various standard Between Frame dimensioned curves. This chart is also based on the formula listed and good conveyor practice, that the inside radius should be greater than the length of the product. Formula for determining distance Between Frames or Guard Rails. G = ( Radius + PackageWidth ) 2 + PackageLength 2 ( Radius 2 ) 2

Product Length - Straight Conveyor


It is good practice, for chain driven live roller conveyors to have a minimum of three rollers under the product at all times. To determine roller spacing, take the length of the shortest product, divide by 3 and choose the standard roller spacing required, either 4-1/2" or 6" centers. 21 long product - = 7.0 Example: -------------------------------------------3 Rollers The closest standard roller spacing is 6"centers.

Product Length - Curves


On curves, the roller centers on the inside rail are closer together than they are on the outside rail. In our standard construction, the wider the conveyor, the more rollers are required in the curve to keep the roller centers to a minimum. You must keep this fanning effect in mind when choosing curves. The following chart shows the roller spacing at various points on the curve.

Product Weight
A check should be made concerning the product weight by taking the various product weights divided by 2/3 of the number of rollers under the product and compare the capacity per roller for that width. 1.90 Dia. x .148 Steel Roller Between Frames Dimension 17 23 29 35 41 Effective Conveyor Width 15 21 27 33 39 Roller Weight w/o Axles 4.1# 5.4# 6.8# 8.2# 9.5# Roller Capacity w/B1020 Bearing 310 310# 310# 290# 254#

Also note that the frame capacity for single strand CDLR is 100 pounds per foot.

Product Loading
The maximum load that the conveyor will encounter (live load) is a major factor in determining the drive and motor requirements. The conveyor loading, expressed in pounds per foot, can be obtained by any of the following methods. 1. Divide the total maximum load on the conveyor by the conveyor length.

Chain Pull and Horsepower Calculations


Chain Pull Calculations Live Load (A)
The total weight of the product being conveyed is normally expressed in pounds per foot (lbs./ft.). For various formulas to determine loading see Product Loading section. Live Load (lbs./ft.) x Conveyor Length = Total Live Load (lbs.)

Dead Load (B)


When power is applied to a chain driven live roller conveyor, all carrying rollers are turning and therefore must be included in our calculations. On chain driven live roller conveyor, this weight can be substantial. This dead load is a combination of two parts. 1. The first part is the weight of all rollers, chain and sprockets and is expressed in lbs./ft. This weight has been calculated for you for the various roller centers and widths of single strand chain driven live roller conveyor. Dead Load (Part 1) x Conveyor Length = DL1 (lbs.) 2. The second part is the weight of all drive pulleys and end rollers and is expressed in lbs. This weight has been calculated for you for the various widths and types of live roller conveyor. This weight is constant and is not dependent on conveyor length. Dead Load (Part 2) = DL2 (lbs.)

Chain Pull (C)


Chain pull is the force required to start and maintain the movement of all rollers and live load and is obtained by multiplying the total live load plus dead load by the coefficient of friction, which varies with the type of conveyor. Coefficient of Friction Single Strand CDLR Roller to Roller CLR (A + B) x Coefficient of Friction = C (Chain Pull in lbs.) .06 .05

Inclines (D)
The maximum recommended incline for chain driven live roller conveyor is 5 degrees. It is advisable to conduct a test to insure a particular product will convey on an inclined unit. Additional chain pull is generated by elevating the product and can be calculated two ways. 1. Total Live Load on Incline (lbs.) x Sine of Angle = Additional Belt Pull (lbs.) 2. The second method can be used for uniformly loaded conveyors. Average Live Load (lbs./ft.) x Rise in Elevation (ft.) = Additional Belt Pull (lbs.) The increase in chain pull generated by an incline is not affected by the coefficient of friction.

Sines of Various Angles Angle 1 2 3 4 5 Sine .02 .04 .05 .07 .09

Deflectors (E)
Deflectors add to the chain pull due to the force required to slide the products off the conveyor. For each deflector add 30% of the weight of the heaviest product being deflected, to the chain pull. Number of Deflectors x Heaviest Product (lbs.) x .30 = Additional Chain Pull (lbs.)

Effective Chain Pull


For effective chain pull add 25% to the total chain pull for chain flexing and bearing friction losses.

After having determined the effective chain pull, you should check that figure against the chart below, which shows allowable chain pull, to make sure you are not exceeding the capacity of the chain. If you do exceed the capacity, you need to shorten the conveyor or decrease the live load. MAXIMUM ALLOWABLE CHAIN PULL (LBS.)

Roller to Roller CDLR


With this construction, two plate or A type sprockets are welded to one end of each roller and individual loops of chain connect pairs of rollers in a staggered pattern, along the length of the conveyor. This driving arrangement is more desirable for heavy loads and for applications requiring frequent stopping or reversing service. There are several product features that will determine the conveyor specifications:

Product Width - Straight Conveyor


The effective conveyor width should be approximately 3" wider than the widest product to be conveyed, then select the next larger standard width conveyor. For roller to roller chain driven live roller conveyor, the standard effective widths vary depending upon the size of equipment required. Standard effective conveying widths and between frames dimensions are shown in this manual. As stated earlier, due to the physical design of chain driven live roller, we will be referring to two different types of conveyor width. These are the Effective Conveying Width and the Between Frames dimension. See the drawing below: For the various sizes of CDLR, the width of the chain box will also vary and the effective conveying surface will always be less than the between frames dimension. When selecting equipment, be sure this aspect has been considered.

Product Width - Curves


Many times curves in a system will dictate the width of the conveyor for the entire system, in that the product may require additional space to negotiate the turn. This additional space depends upon the width and length of the product being conveyed, as well as the inside radius of the curve. When selecting the curve, it must be remembered that a curve that utilizes 1.90" dia. rollers cannot be used in conjunction with or driven by a straight section utilizing a 2.50" dia. roller or any other size. The design and dimensions are not compatible. The design of our roller to roller chain driven live roller curves are developed to simplify manufacturing procedures and therefore the outside radius is fixed or constant on each of the three styles of CDLR. As the conveyor width increases, the inside radius decreases. In order to determine the W and/or radius, select the appropriate style of straight section and then, through a trial and error method, use the following formula, plugging in the appropriate numbers until the formula is satisfied. As a general rule, the inside radius of the curve should be greater than the length of the product.

G =

( Radius + Package Width )

Package Length --------------------------------------------- ( Radius 2 ) + 2

Example: Product size - 24" Square Plywood Pallet Weighing 500 lbs. The weight would put it into the 1.90" dia. roller category and in consideration of product width characteristics for straight conveyor, the approximate effective width would be 24" + 3" = 27". Reviewing the specifications for 1.90" dia. CDLR, the closest standard effective width would be 26-3/4" with a between frames dimension of 30". With this in mind, the constant outside radius for the 1.90" dia. roller style CDLR is 65-1/8". 65-1/8 - 30 = Inside Radius of 35-1/8. Using the above formula G ( Eff Width ) = = = = ( 35.125 + 24 ) 2 + 24 2 ( 35.125 2 ) 2

( 59.125 ) 2 + ( 12 ) 2 33.125 3496 + 144 33.1 3640 33.1

= 60.3 33.1 = 27.2 Our initial assumption was correct. If it were not, we would probably check out the next larger standard width unit.

Product Length - Straight Conveyor


It is good practice, for chain driven live roller conveyors to have a minimum of three rollers under the product at all times. To determine roller spacing, take the length of the shortest product, divide by 3 and choose the standard roller spacing required. The standard roller spacing varies depending on the frame and roller size selected. See the individual specification pages for each type in this manual.

Product Length - Curves


On curves, the roller centers on the inside rail are closer together than they are on the outside rail. Due to our design, since the outside radius is fixed or constant on each of the three styles of CDLR, the roller centers on the outside rail are also constant for each style. See the individual specification pages for each type in this manual.

Product Weight
1. Roller Selection and Spacing: Many products have rigid bottoms or conveying surfaces and more often than not they are not exactly flat. This is especially true when dealing with CDLR, since it is probably handling heavier products, which require more rigid containers. In order to compensate for this, it is advisable to figure that only 2/3 of the rollers will support the full weight of the product. Therefore, it is necessary to take the weights of the various products being conveyed and divide by 2/3 of the rollers under the product to determine the required capacity of the roller. Example: 19" long product weighing 80 lbs. 19 long product ---------------------------------------------- = 6.33 roller centers 3 Rollers The closest standard will probably be 6". Therefore, there are three rollers under the product, 2/3 x 3 = 2 roller supporting 80 lbs. 80 lbs. 2 rollers = 40 lbs. per roller required capacity. If you are not able to find a roller with the required capacity, it may be necessary to provide rollers on closer centers. Always consider the worst loading condition that the conveyor will be subject to in order to determine roller spacing. 1.90 Dia. x .109 Steel Roller Between Frames Dimension 18 21 24 27 30 33 36 39 Roller Capacity w/B1020 Bearing 310# 310# 310# 310# 310# 304# 286# 269# 2.50 Dia. x .120 Steel Roller Between Frames Dimension 18 24 30 36 42 48 54 60 Roller Capacity w/B1060 Bearing 610# 610# 610# 610# 610# 596# 591# 555#

2. Frame Selection: In order to simplify selection, roller and frame combinations have been selected that offer compatibility in size and capacity. Having determined the roller size, you will find that roller in a specific frame and you will need to confirm that this frame has the required capacity. You need to determine the total load on the conveyor at the worst loading condition and check the frame capacity chart on pages H-27, H-33, H-39, or H-45 depending on the different roller series CDLR. The frame must be able to support the combined weight of the rollers/axles, the live load and any other devices which are to be mounted. 3. Support Selection: You will note that the capacities for the frames are based on support centers either 5'-0" or 10'-0". In some instances, it may be more economical to stay with a smaller roller and increase the number of supports to achieve the desired capacity. When selecting the supports, be sure to include the weight of the frame plus rollers, along with the live load for capacity ratings of the supports. Note that the nominal height is to the bottom of the conveyor frame rail.

Product Loading
The maximum load that the conveyor will encounter (live load) is a major factor in determining the drive and motor requirements. The conveyor loading, expressed in pounds per foot, can be obtained by any of the following methods: 1. Divide the total maximum load on the conveyor by the conveyor length. T otal load on conveyor ( lbs ) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- = Conveyor Loading ( lbs ft ) Conveyor Length ( ft ) 2. When the product is introduced to the conveyor at a given rate, the conveyor loading is a function of product weight, product rate, and conveyor speed. P rod Wt ( lbs ctn ) Prod Rate ( ctns min ) ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- = Conveyor Loading ( lbs ft ) Conveyor Speed ( ft min ) 3. When the product is back to back on the conveyor, the conveyor loading is a function of product weight and product length. Product Weight ( lbs ) ---------------------------------------------------------- = Conveyor Loading ( lbs ft ) Product Length ( ft ) 4. When the product is introduced to the conveyor at an uneven rate, the conveyor loading can be determined by taking the maximum weight that the conveyor must handle in one minute and divide by the conveyor speed.

Use 1% for ideal conditions with well lubricated chain. Use 1.5% to 3% if operating conditions are severe and if proper chain lubrication and maintenance are not likely. The drive and roller-to-roller chain pulls must be less than the working strengths of the chains. If the drive is located in the center of the conveyor, the drive pull will be twice the roller-to-roller chain pull. Locating the drive chain in the center minimizes the exponential losses in the chain loops. If the drive is located at the end of the conveyor, the drive chain pull will equal the roller-to-roller chain pull and the losses will be maximized. Assumptions: 1. The total live load is uniformly distributed on all the rollers. 2. The load is imposed on each bearing by the driving chains is negligible except for the roller or rollers coupled to the drive.

3. The pull required to turn each roller results from a combined rolling resistance between the roller and bearing and roller and load. 4. The chain transmission factor is constant. 5. The conveyor is horizontal and level. 6. Loads are not rubbing guard rails or chain box.

Shown below are Typical arrangement of the C557 Curve when use with other components. The conveyor illustrated consists of one C127 end section, one C557 curved section and one C573 end drive. Straight intermediate section (type C572) can be added between curve and end section or between curve and drive. The straight conveyor at the receive end of the curve should be limited to 100# effective chain pull to minimize resultant pull through curve. The drive should be at the discharge end and the straight discharge conveyor can utilize the full capacity of the chain.

Not Recommended For Reversing Service The conveyor pictured on the following page consists of two C127 end section, one C557 curved section and one C571 drive (includes 3-0 straight section). Straight intermediate sections (type C572) can be added between curve and end section or between curve and drive. The straight conveyor at the receive end of the curve should be limited to 100# effective chain pull to minimize resultant pull through curve. The drive should be near the discharge end and the straight discharge conveyor can utilize the full capacity of the chain.

Controlled Flow Conveyor

Controlled Flow Conveyor


Application Data - CFC Series II, III and IV - Available as an Engineered Product
Mathews Control Flow Conveyor Series II, III and IV are heavy duty live roller conveyors which permit accumulation of conveyed loads without build up of line pressure. Each consist of a series of interconnected conveying zones which are individually powered by the engagement of a pneumatically controlled low pressure air clutch. The rollers in each zone are connected roller to roller by sprockets and chains. An air clutch is attached to one roller in each zone. Each zone is connected clutch to clutch by sprockets ad chains. CFC Series II, III and IV are gearmotor driven. Standard features are accumulation in one direction, single load release (singulation), and multiple load release (sequential). CFC Series II, III and IV may be reversed and used as transport conveyors for empty pallets.

How CFC Series II, III and IV Accumulation Operates


As products move onto Mathews CFC conveyors, and accumulation is to begin, a load entering the conveyor will be transported through the preceding zone and onto zone 1 at the discharge end of the conveyor, where it will depress a sensing roller. When this sensing device is depressed, the air pressure to the clutch is removed, thus removing driving power from zone 1. A signal is sent to zone 2 so that when its sensing device is depressed its clutch is likewise disengaged. This sequence is represented for accumulation in the remaining zones. The release control at the exit end of the conveyor is a solenoid operated control valve. When an external electrical signal is received, it will release loads singularly or sequentially. Release of a load from zone 1 or removal of a load from any intermediate zone will restart the adjacent upstream zone to fill that empty zone.

Release Modes Singulation


This type of release allows the exit of one product at a time with the issuance of an electrical remote signal. As the article leaves zone 1 sensing device, the signal is terminated, and the following products advance in a sequential fashion.

Sequential
This type of release allows the exit of product in a progressive fashion with the issuance of a maintained electrical signal. A gap (approximately equal to the zone length) is generated between articles.

Controlled Flow Conveyor - 81

Controlled Flow Conveyor

Application Information
In order to ensure actuation of the sensing rollers, the product to be conveyed must present a firm flat bottom surface to the conveyor rollers. In the case of pallets, at least one continuous bottom member must run the entire length of the pallet. The standard zone lengths are 5-0 and the maximum length for conveyed product should be 12 less than the zone length (6 less for CFC II only). The minimum length of a product to be conveyed is dependent upon the roller centers. For proper conveying at least three rollers should be under the article at all times. In the case of totes with sloped ends, the top and bottom dimension should both be taken into consideration. The minimum article weight is limited by the4 sensitivity of the sensing device. For CFC Series II, 15 lbs. minimum; CFC Series III, 30 lbs. minimum and CFC Series IV, 50lbs. minimum is required to actuate the zone sensing device. Mathews CFC Series II, III and IV use low pressure, non-lubricated dry air from 15 to 30 p.s.i. for its air logic control and actuation of the low pressure air clutches.

Components For Driving and Controlling the Powered Conveyors


This section deals with the components that drive and control powered conveyors. It presents a review of the various components used and information required to make the proper selection. These various control mechanisms can be used to control single units or be incorporated into systems.

Motors
There are three basic types of motor enclosures: 1. Open The motor windings can be seen through the vents at the end of the motor. 2. Totally Enclosed The motors are completely encased in a metal enclosure. 3. Explosion Proof The enclosure of the motor will withstand an explosion from within itself and will not allow sparks or hot gas to escape into the surrounding atmosphere. Explosion proof motors are further rated by class and group by the National Electric Code according to the environment in which they are designed to operate. Class I Hazardous Vapor Group C - Ethers, Alcohols, etc. Group D - Petroleum Base Hazardous Dust Group E - Metal Group F - Carbons Group G - Grains

Class II

There are three designations required when specifying the power source an A.C. motor is to operate from: 1. Phase - Three or One 2. Frequency - Hertz

3. Voltage - Volts Common single phase voltages are 115 and 230. Common three phase voltages are 208, 230, 460 and 575. Motors for 230 or 460 volt applications normally are supplied as dual voltage, (i.e. 230/460). When specifying motors, the single voltage which will be used to operate the motor must be stated if the proper controls for starting and stopping the motor are to be selected. Motors are commonly mounted by two principle means, foot mounted or C-face. Foot mounted is nothing more than a set of mounting feet which are welded or otherwise attached to the bottom of the motor. C-face mounting consists of a cast ring or collar on the end of the motor with four mounting holes which allows the motor to be attached to a reducer, machine, etc.

Gear Reducer
A reducer is a device which converts a high RPM with low torque (usually supplied by a motor at the reducers input shaft) to a lower RPM with higher torque on the reducers output shaft, which is connected to the conveyor drive. Reducers are generally selected based on the amount of the horsepower to be transmitted and the amount of reduction in speed that is required. Terminology used in speed reduction is ratio. Ratio is the rate of the output speed as compared to the input speed. Typical ratios are 10:1, 40:1, etc. If an 1800 RPM motor is coupled to a 40:1 ratio reducer, the resultant output speed would be 1800 divided by 40 which equals 45 RPM Manufacturers rating tables are used to select a reducer with the proper horsepower rating. Gear reducers are generally grouped into two categories, parallel shaft and right angle shaft. The determination is made by the position of the output shaft relative to the input shaft. If the output shaft is in position parallel to the input shaft, then the gear reducer is termed a parallel reducer. If the output shaft is in a position forming a right angle to the input shaft, the reducer is termed a right angle reducer. The most common mounting arrangement for reducers is foot mounted. This consists of a set of feet, with holes in them, that are attached to the reducer. With this arrangement, the reducer can be bolted to any flat surface. Since the reducer requires oil to lubricate the gears, it is necessary to know whether it is intended to be mounted with the feet up and the reducer below, such as a ceiling hung mounting position or with the feet down and the reducer above them, which would be termed a floor mounted position. Another important consideration in gear reducers is how the motor will be attached to the reducer. One simple means is to foot mount the reducer and foot mount the motor at relative positions so that the output shaft of the motor is aligned with the input shaft of the reducer. A suitable coupling can then be used to connect the two. An alternative approach is to use a C-face motor and C-face reducer. Remember that a C-face motor has a ring or collar on the end of the motor with four mounting holes. Reducers can be purchased that have a corresponding collar around the input shaft of the reducer. A plastic collar couples the output shaft of the motor to the input shaft of the reducer and when the motor and reducer are bolted together, it encloses the coupling eliminating the need for a guard. Because of the popularity of C-face motor reducer combinations when they were originally introduced, manufacturers carried that concept forward with the introduction of the integral gearmotor. An integral gearmotor is a motor and reducer or gear box, cast into one housing. Basically, the motor is made open ended on the end next to the gear box and the gear box has a flat plate and collar to accept the motor. This eliminates the need for C-face rings on the motor and reducer and therefore is more economical. The disadvantages of the integral gearmotor is that if either the motor or reducer fails, both have to be replaced since it is an integral unit. In the case of a C-face motor and C-face reducer, if the motor fails, only the motor has to be replaced. If the reducer fails, only the reducer has to be replaced.

Brakes
The most common types of brakes used with motors are spring set/electrically released type. This is a disc type brake, that when power to the motor is eliminated, a spring sets the brake to stop the rotation of the motor. When power is applied to the motor, the brake is released by an electrical solenoid. Brakes are sized in terms of the torque they produce. Normally, for a holding brake such as is used on a conveyor, a brake should be sized 3 ft. lbs. per horsepower or as an example, a 3 ft. lb. brake is used for a 1 horsepower motor and a 6 ft. lb. brake for a 2 horsepower motor.

Clutch Brake
A clutch-brake is a device that is mounted between the motor and the reducer. With a clutch-brake, the motor runs continuously. When the conveyor is to start, the clutch is energized and the brake is released. When it is desirable to stop the conveyor, the clutch is released and the brake is applied. Clutch-brakes require a special power supply and controlling device. This controller allows the force between the clutch discs and brake discs to be varied. This provides a means of adjusting the starting and stopping motions of the conveyor from soft to violent. Three phase motors with brakes generally can be started and stopped up to six times per minute. For applications requiring more starts and stops per minute, a clutch brake should be used.

Motor Starters Manual Motor Starters


Manual motor starters are devices which, when a button is pushed or a toggle type switch is thrown, operate a set of electrical contacts which supply power to a motor. The button or toggle switch is an integral part of the manual starter. Manual motor starters can be used when a conveyor is being controlled from one point only and can not be connected with any other remotely located control circuit devices, such as a second push button, a limit switch, or photoelectric relay. In order to select the proper manual motor starter, the following must be known: 1. Reversing or Non-Reversing 2. Single Phase or 3 Phase 3. Frequency of Power Supply (60 Hertz) 4. Voltage at which the motor is to be run (this must be one voltage, not dual voltage such as 230/ 460. 5. Horsepower of motor controlled by the starter.

Magnetic Motor Starters


Magnetic motor starters are used where it is desirable to control a conveyor from more than one location. Magnetic motor starters have basically two circuits associated with them. One is a control circuit and the other is a power circuit. The power circuit turns electrical line power to the motor off or on. The line power provides the energy for the motor to actually do work while the control circuit tells it when. The control circuit is controlled by push button, limit switches, photoelectric relays and switching devices. Technically, these switching devices are used to energize the magnetic coil of the starter which in turn operates a set of multiple contacts. These contacts are used to complete the power circuit to the motor. The control circuit voltage is usually lower than the power circuit voltage. In order to select the proper magnetic starter, the following must be known: 1. Reversing or Non-Reversing 2. Phase, frequency and voltage the motor is to run on (power voltage). HB-828 - 12/03 Electrical Components & Control Equipment - 127

Electrical Components & Control Equipment


3. Phase, frequency and voltage the push button is to be run on (control voltage) 4. Is a transformer required to change motor voltage to control voltage? (This would be required if, for instance, there was only one power source available, such as 230 volts, which is acceptable for the line power for the motor but the push buttons are desired to operate at 115 volts.) 5. Horsepower of the motor to be controlled.

Combination Magnetic Motor Starters and Control Panels


The National Electrical Code requires both short circuit protection and running overload protection for each motor in a conveyor system. In addition, a lockable disconnecting device must be provided with sight and (also) within 50 feet of each motor. The running overload protection for a motor is provided by the heaters in a starter. Heaters are an integral part of all motor starters. This leaves the problem of providing short circuit protection and a disconnecting means to consider. Providing a combination motor starter for each motor meets both of these requirements. The fuses or circuit breakers in a combination starter provide the short circuit protection and the disconnect or circuit breaker provides the disconnecting means. The circuit breakers provide the same function as a fused-disconnect. The only other requirement of this alternative to meeting the criteria of the National Electrical Code is physically locating the combination starters within 50 feet and in sight of the motors they control. Typically these starters are individually located directly beside the motor they control and are mounted on the side of the conveyor drive. A second alternative to meeting this requirement of the National Electrical Code is to provide across the line magnetic starters and provide a fused-disconnect in a separate enclosure. Typically the fused-disconnects are provided by whoever is doing the field wiring. Although this is typical it is an often misunderstood point. If across the line starters are provided by the equipment supplier, it should be established early in the development of a project whether the equipment supplier is also providing fuse-disconnects or whether they will be provided by the field wiring supplier. A third alternative to meeting the requirements of the National Electrical Code is providing a prewired control panel. The control panel houses across the line starters and fuses or circuit breakers for each motor in a common enclosure. This meets the short circuit protection requirement. The control panel includes a main disconnect switch which meets the disconnecting means requirement of the code as long as all of the motors are located within 50 feet and within sight of the control panel. If some of the motors are beyond a 50 foot radius of the panel or are not visible from the panel, then a non-fused disconnect must be provided for each motor. These disconnects are usually provided by the field wiring contractor but not always. Caution must be exercised between the parties involved in a project that everyone understands who is providing what. In summary, there are three essential parts to motor control: the disconnecting means, the overload heaters contained in the magnetic starter, and the short circuit protection. These can be grouped in various combinations in multiple or common enclosures.

Electrical Enclosures
Standards for the manufacture of electrical control devices have been agreed on by the National Electrical Manufacturers Association or N.E.M.A. N.E.M.A. has established various classifications for enclosures or boxes enclosing push buttons, motor starters, photoelectric cells, etc. A numbering system is used to describe these enclosures, and the following are some of the more common that you will encounter. 1. N.E.M.A. Type 1 - Surface Mounting (General Purpose Sheet Metal) Type 1 enclosures are intended for indoor use, primarily to provide a degree of protection against contact with enclosed equipment in locations where usual service conditions do not exist. The enclosure is sheet metal and treated to resist corrosion. 2. N.E.M.A. Type 4 (Water Tight) Type 4 enclosures are intended for in-door or external use primarily to provide a degree of protection against wind blown dust and rain, splashing water, and hose directed water. They are designed to meet hosed down, dust, external icing and rust resistance design tests. They are not intended to provide protection against conditions such as internal condensation or internal icing. Enclosures are made of heavy gauge stainless steel, cast aluminum or heavy gauge sheet metal, depending upon the type of unit. The cover has a synthetic rubber gasket. 3. N.E.M.A. Type 7 and 9 (Explosion Proof) These enclosures are intended for indoor use. N.E.M.A. type 7 is normally used in atmospheres that contain hazardous gas and will be used in areas that correspond with Class 1, Group C and D motors. N.E.M.A. type 9 would normally be used in atmospheres that contain hazardous dust and would be used in conjunction with motors that are classified as Class II, Group E, F, and G. 4. N.E.M.A. 12 (Industrial Dust-Tight) These enclosures are intended for use indoors to protect the enclosed equipment against fibers, flying lint, dust and dirt and light splashing, seepage, dripping and external condensation of noncorrosive liquids.

Switching Devices Push Buttons


Push buttons are about the simplest switching device known. The operator simply pushes a button which causes an electrical contact to close, thus providing a signal for something else to happen.

Limit Switches
Limit switches are switching devices which are actuated by a machine motion striking a lever on the switch. The lever causes an electrical contact to operate which causes some other action to happen.

Selector Switches
Selector switches are similar to a push button except the operator rotates the switch as opposed to pushing down on the switch to cause an electrical contact to operate.

Photoelectric Relays
Photoelectric relays are a no touch switching device. This is a device which operates an electrical contact when a beam of light is broken.

Solenoid Valves
A solenoid valve is an air or hydraulic valve combined with a solenoid. The solenoid is a magnetic coil which is turned on by a switching device or logic device. When the coil is turned on, it causes an armature to move and push a plunger in one direction or the other. The plunger and the solenoid shifts a spool in the valve to cause a different flow path for the air or hydraulic fluid.

Air Controls
Air control used on conveyors normally consist of valves and filter-regulators which may be used to raise and lower stops and transveyors or perhaps to actuate some other divert mechanism. A filter-regulator-lubricator is a combination of three devices. The filter cleans the dirt and grit out of the air, the regulator regulates the pressure in the air line and keeps it below a certain maximum pressure. The lubricator squirts oil into the air passing through it. This lubrication is used to lubricate the valve and cylinder which is normally connected to the filter-regulator-lubricator.
