About your speed switch

The SST-2000A/H series is a speed switch and signal transmitter that provides
alarm set points for over- and underspeed control for sequential, startup, and
shutdown switching for:

t

engines

t

machines

t

I/P drivers

t

instrumentation

t

process control

t

recording

t

measurement

How it works

The SST-2000A/H accepts a full-scale frequency input value from 0–0.1 Hz
(6 pulses per minute) to 0–50,000 Hz. Standard: 0–80 Hz to 0–20,000 Hz.

Examples of input devices include:

t

passive or active magnetic pickups

t

shaft encoders

t

contact closures

t

flow meters

t

photocells

The speed switch converts frequency input (speed, rate) into linear proportional
dc outputs:

t

0–1 mA (standard - meter out)

t

4–20 mA (standard - proportional out)

t

0–5 Vdc (switch selectable)

t

0–10 Vdc (switch selectable)

It provides 0, 2, or 4 relay trip set points (depending on the model)

When the SST-2000A/H Series Speed Switch/Transmitter is

used as the primary overspeed shutdown device, it must be

tested regularly.
