  • Control Concepts

    Control Concepts manufactures electro mechanical, electronic, and proximity speed switches. An electro mechanical speed switch is a direct coupled speed indicating switch that opens or closes contacts mechanically as a function of the rotational speed of the switch shaft. An electronic speed switch is a direct coupled speed indicating switch that opens or closes a set of contacts through a relay and an electronic circuit. A proximity speed switch is a non-contacting speed switch relying on a proximity sensor to pickup a rotating piece of ferrous metal.

  • Torq Corporation

    Torq Corporation manufactures electronic speed switches, zero speed switches, and mechanical speed switches. Electronic and zero speed switches come in either standard or hazardous location models. The Torq mechanical speed switch is used in bulk material handling/processing systems to monitor speeds of conveyors, elevators, feeder shafts and drums.

  • Maxigard (Process Control Systems)

    Process Control Systems manufacutures the Maxigard brand of industrial products designed to monitor belt conveyors, bucket elevators, screw conveyors and other types of material handling and processing equipment. Adjustable speed switches are offered in single set point and dual set point to detect the slowing of the fan shaft caused by the drive belt slipping. Their zero speed switch is typically used to moitor a rotary airlock and screw conveyor.

  • Mid-State Instruments

    Mid-State Instruments is a manufacturer's representative and distributer that offers different types of speed switches. The SS-110 slow speed switch  has one adjustable set point for monitoring a single rotating shaft. SCP1000 presettable machine speed switches are provide one individually adjustable relay set point while monitoring a single rotating shaft. Electro-Sensor’s FB420 is normally a part of the Electro-Sentry™ Hazard Monitoring System but is also available as a stand alone shaft speed sensor.

  • Jayashree Electron

    Jayashree Electron offers electronic speed switches and electrodynamic speed switches. Electronic speed switches come in many models, including heavy duty, light duty, indoor, hybrid ciruitry, digital IC technology, discreet IC technology, micro-controller technology, weatherproof, and compact configurations. Electrodynamic speed switches feature speed dependent contact actuation by eddy current torque that results in instant response even to small speed changes, and actuation speeds from 30-3000 RPM in 6 ranges.

  • Hubbell Industrial Controls

    Hubbell offers both direct coupled or non-contact type switches for directional, non-directional, plugging, anti-plugging, over-speed, under-speed and zero-speed applications. Many enclosures are available in surface or flange mounting configurations with NEMA 3, 4, 7, 9, 10 or 13 construction.

  • Mod-Tronic

    Mod-Tronic is a supplier of speed switches and transmitters from Dynalco Controls. Offerings include the SW-100 with a single setpoint for over/underspeed protection. The SWT-1000 and SWTD-1000 have a single relay setpoint for over speed protection and 4-20mA isolated output. The SWT-2000 is a 2 channel speed switch/transmitter that can monitor and protect two separate machines. The SST-2000A and SST-2000H speed switches/transmitters receive signal input from a passive or active magnetic pickup, shaft encoder, contact closure, or flowmeter to provide analog outputs and 0, 2, or 4 relay trip setpoints.
