Dazic speed switches detect when your machine fails, and pauses material handling processes to prevent costly and time-consuming material pileup.

DAZIC zero speed switches prevent pileup and protect your equipment.

DAZIC’s electromechanical, electronic and inductive proximity speed switches can let you know if equipment is running too fast, too slow, or not at all.

These “smart switches” can be used on any equipment that’s part of a conveyor system or other shaft-driven process components. The switches can be interlocked into your material handling system to stop operations when a machine slows down, stops, or deviates from standard operating parameters that you’ve set.

Effective
DAZIC Zero Speed Switches can detect changes in motion ranging from 0.5 RPM up to 2000 RPM.
High Quality
Our switches are made from aluminum or cast iron and are manufactured in the USA.
Durable
Our switches are resistant to dust, rain, hose-directed water, and corrosion. Explosion-proof models are also available if your material handling system is within hazardous environments.

Dazic^® Speed Switch Models

WHAT IS A SPEED SWITCH?

Speed switches are attached to rotating shafts to detect any abnormal change in rotation speed. These shafts are found in many types of material handling systems including plant machinery, from conveyor belts to rock crushers.

DAZIC Zero Speed Switches contain small metal flags or magnets mounted on a disc or pulsar wrap, which generates pulses as it passes through the probe’s electromagnetic field. These pulses are proportional to the shaft’s rotations per minute.

This simple set-up helps detect any speed changes. If the switch detects that the RPM does not match the speed trip-points you’ve set, a corresponding relay de-energizes and triggers an alarm.

Choose the best zero speed switch for your process and factory conditions

The DAZIC zero speed switch models differ in terms of:

shaft input speeds
set trip-point
housing material
mounting styles
electrical wiring options
operating temperature range
field adjustability
contact type

A DAZIC^® SPEED SWITCH FINDS THE PROBLEM… AND STOPS THE PROBLEM

If one machine in your material handling conveyor system malfunctions, DAZIC Zero Speed switches can shut off the system to prevent further damage and delays — lessening the production headache and cost of expensive repairs.

DAZIC^® Speed Switch Accessories

Dazic speed switch installation accessories

The DAZIC zero speed switches must be properly mounted and aligned to avoid putting extra load on DAZIC bearings to ensure that it performs optimally and prevent any premature failures.

We recommend using installation accessories such as Mounting Brackets and K-Couplings to provide a secure foundation and eliminate misalignment connection problems.
