PVSensor
Complete System # 5801
Procedure for Installation and Use
The PVSensor (PVS) system is designed to safely optimise LRTM or RTM mould fill. It is now possible to
monitor and control the in-mould pressure from 800mb to 2000mb. (The short term, safe over-pressure is
rated at 3 bar).
The system comprises:
•
Electronic Display Module # 5798 – Operator controls and status LED
•
Power Supply Unit # 5799 - 240/110vAC input, 12vDC output
•
PVSensor # 5797 - A PTFE bodied precision electronic pressure sensor to fit a mould insert.
•
Machine Control # 5789 - Output solenoid to control the resin flow of meter mix machinery.
Kit contains complete mounting bracket set and conversion fittings for Patriot SSB and
Megaject MkIV / MkV machines.
•
Universal Insert with spring Clip # 6316, and Adapter # 6317
ELECTRONIC DISPLAY MODULE AND POWER PACK:
The Electronic Module houses the circuitry that manages the signal from the PVSensor and allows the
setting of the required mould pressure set-point and hysterisis. It also provides Actual Pressure readings
from the sensor in the mb range. The scale is x 10, as individual millibar changes would be too rapid and
confusing to read. Therefore a reading of 101 is actually 1010 mb (101 x 10).
