Summary

Belt Tear Detector, sometimes called as a Conveyor Belt Rip Detector, is a safety device that continuously monitors the conveyor belt for longitudinal rips or punctures. When abnormal tension or mechanical disturbance is detected (typically through wires or sensor loops installed across the belt), the device instantly stops the conveyor to prevent further damage, material loss and downtime.

Benefits

Cost Saving

Possible to minimize the facility damage and save the repair cost because It can stop the conveyor immediately when the accident happens.

Material Loss Reduction

Possible to minimize the material loss dropped from the belt conveyor.

Downtime Saving

Possible to minimize the downtime to recover from the accident.

Features

Reliable Touch Sensor

Belt Tear Detector Features

Cable switch type touch sensor protected by the safety cover has less dead zone and provides reliable detection without malfunction caused by the site vibration.

Trough Angle Adjustable

Belt Tear Detector Features

Trough angle is adjustable at the site.

Besides, mounting work is easy because of the mechanism and no need to hang up the conveyor belt during the installation.

Customized Options

Belt Tear Detector Features

Possible to provide customized design according to your conveyor shape.

Above photo is one of the customized system for a pipe conveyor.

Operating Principle

Belt tear detector of the touch sensor system operates by mechanically detecting abnormal contact caused by a torn through the conveyor belt.

Touch sensors are installed at a specified position behind the impact roller underneath the transferring chute.

When a belt tear or rip occurs, the entrained material makes contact with the touch sensor.

This contact makes an electrical continuity at the touch sensor and generates an emergency stop signal via the relay unit.

By directly responding to physical contact, the system provides reliable belt tear detection independent of belt speed, electrical properties, or material characteristics, enabling early shutdown and prevention of secondary damage.
