Key Features:
|
 | Low frequency induction balance system ignores
rebars, remesh, and foil-backed temporary tape. |
| Works with all 12 volt skipline controls. |
| Water and solvent resistant sensor head. |
| Simple installation, easy set-up and calibration. |
| Standard sensor head cable length is 15 feet, additional
length available at small additional cost. |
| Two sensor head styles are available, 12 inches and 18 inches
wide. Both styles are 8 inches from front to rear and 4 inches high overall.  12" Sensor Head 18" Sensor Head |
| Power: Requires 11-18 volts DC, negative ground, at
2 amperes. Protected against reversed polarity and
voltage spikes. Note that the internal circuitry of the R10 is grounded to
the cabinet, and erroneously connecting the hot power wire to the R10 ground
terminal WILL cause damage. |
| Inputs: Four high-side controller lines used
with skip timers that switch the high-side of the solenoids. |
| Outputs: Four high-side switches, 2 amperes
each. Transistors are protected from solenoid kick-back spikes. |
| Controls: The 'BALANCE' adjustment allows the
sensitivity of the sensor head to be adjusted to compensate for varying
carriage positions. The 'WAIT' adjustment compensates for the
distance from the sensor head to the paint gun, and for the delays inherent in
the gun and solenoid valves. The 'SKIP' sets the time that the gun is off,
to make sure that the reflector doesn't get painted, but with a minimum of
interruption. The 'SPEED' control makes fine adjustments to the 'WAIT'
to compensate for changes in vehicle speed. An ON-OFF switch bypasses
the skip function, for instance on overpasses and steel bridge decks where
unusually heavy steel concentrations might cause extra skips. |
| Indicators: The R10 has three light-emitting diodes
(LEDs) on the panel, one to indicate that an RPM has been detected, one to
indicate that the control is "waiting" and one to indicate that it
is "skipping". |
| Sensor Head Road Clearance: The R10 sensor
head has a
shallow sensing field so it won't "see" rebars and remesh in the
pavement. For this reason, the sensor head must be mounted on the gun carriage
where it will always be between 2 inches and 4 inches from the pavement. |
| Distance between Sensor Head and Paint Guns:
Make this as long as you can to allow the guns time to shut off before they
reach the reflector. Generally at least one foot is needed, but for high
speed trucks, even more distance may be necessary. Keep control hoses as
short as possible. |
| The R10 electronics cabinet is a NEMA 4
water-resistant enclosure with rubber gasket seal. Finish
is gray epoxy enamel. The
controls are sealed for rain-tight protection. |
