SSC-3000 EXPANDABLE OPTIONS (CONTINUED)
DIE PROTECTION CARD
Part No. FTL-321
The 8-Input Die Protection Card is designed to provide user-programmable inputs that monitor static or cyclic events during the press stroke. Up to
three 8-Input Die Protection Cards can be used for a total of 24 inputs. The 24-V DC inputs have individual jumpers that set each input to current
sinking or sourcing. All inputs have depluggable terminal strips with LED indicators for easy installation and maintenance.
The die protection inputs can be used for equipment monitoring, die protection, or other user-defined functions. Five (5) parameters can be
programmed for each input: logic, stop type, open angle, close angle, and fault message. Ten (10) user-defined messages exist at the end of the
user-programmable fault list. These ten messages can be edited by the user via the programmable options in the main program screen.
ANGLE DISPLAY CARD
Part No. FTL-323
The Angle Display Card is used in conjunction with the crankshaft angle display described below. The crankshaft angle display unit must be
purchased in addition to the angle display card.
CRANKSHAFT ANGLE DISPLAY UNIT
Part No. FTL-054
The optional crankshaft angle display is a unit that shows the angular position of the crankshaft for
mechanical power presses. The crankshaft position is shown both graphically (with red LEDs in a circle)
and numerically (with a large, red, three-digit LED). The large display can be easily seen which helps
with setup, removal of stuck workpieces, or for assistance during emergency extraction procedures.
The Angle Display Card must be purchased in conjunction with this crankshaft angle display unit.
FEATURES
• Large LED numerical display and circular LED graphic display can be easily seen
• 6” x 6” x 2” enclosure
• Mounts easily
• Supplied with 25’ of cable for connection to the control
• Helps satisfy the requirements of Canadian Standard CSA Z142-02, Code for Power Press
Operation: Health, Safety, and Guarding Requirements, for indication of crank angle position
LOAD MONITOR SYSTEM
Load Monitor Card
Part No. FTL-322
The SSC-3000 control is designed to accept one or two Load (tonnage) Monitor
Cards in the main rack. Each card is capable of monitoring the machine load at
four locations on the machine frame or components. Four to eight load cells can
be installed on the machine to read up to a maximum of eight zones of tonnage
overload—four load cells per Load Monitor Card.
The Load Monitor Card is programmable through the SSC-3000 touch screen/
display. The minimum and maximum tonnage can be set manually or with a
learn key. The learn key will add 10% to or subtract 10% from the current
high and low settings. When enabled, a stop signal will be given when an over
or under tonnage setting is detected. The system for load monitoring also
requires a load monitor control module and sensors (see next page).
