Kiepe Belt Misalignment Switches

Kiepe Belt Misalignment Switches or Belt Drift Switches are used in conveyor installations for monitoring belt travel

Kiepe Belt Misalignment Switches are used in conveyor installations for monitoring belt travel. When mounted at the running edges of a conveyor belt, the switches engage if the belt deviates from its designed running line by more than the permissible distance.

 

On detection of unacceptable deviation Kiepe Belt Misalignment Switches stop the conveyor to avoid spillage of material or damage to equipment. All Kiepe Belt Misalignment Safety Switches are cam-operated and snap acting.
