The new EAS-Sensor safety clutch with integrated signal transmitter developed by mayr Antriebstechnik sends the overload signal wirelessly. The limit switch is integrated directly in the clutch. It detects the disengagement motion of the clutch in case of overload and transmits the signal wirelessly to a base station connected to the machine controller. External factors such as vibration or axial offset of the clutch do not impair operational reliability. The transmitter of the unit, including its power supply, is entirely contained in the torque adjustment nut of the safety clutch. It reports the operating state of the clutch at regular, short intervals, along with information on the supply voltage level.
