Controls for conveyor system closures FAA

locking system | HPS-ADVANCED

The approved assembly combines the system components of the triggering device, power supply, evaluation of the fire detectors as well as operating elements and status displays. The modular design enables flexible adaptation to requirements through the integration of the optional free-travel control and the backup power supply.

The system can be individually adapted to the closure using the system's own configuration software. Potential-free interfaces are available for communication with the conveyor system and with a fire alarm system.

For service purposes, a removable storage device for system data and error memory is integrated. The central unit can optionally be equipped with an additional control point and, if necessary, a graphic display for status and error display.

The HPS-ADVANCED hold-open system is specially designed to ensure safety and efficiency in critical infrastructures. Our system solution offers the following key functions:

Central unit

  • Battery-buffered.
  • Potential-free interfaces are available for communication with the conveyor system as well as with a fire alarm system.
  • The modular design allows flexible adaptation to requirements through the integration of the optional free-travel control and the emergency power supply.
  • The system can be individually adapted to the degree using the system's own configuration software.
  • For service purposes, a removable storage device for system data and error memory is integrated.

Free travel control | HPS-DRIVE

With standardized switching devices, the conveyor technology drives can be controlled in the event of a fire. Various designs allow individual adaptation to the conveyor system.

The decentralized system can be installed in close proximity to the drive.

Substitute power supply | HPS-POWER

In the event of a fire, the conveyor drives must be supplied with power via an independent power supply. Either an on-site emergency supply or the decentralized system module is used for this purpose.

Different performance classes can be individually combined with the system. Depending on the area of ​​application, it can also be used for multiple degrees. The system can be implemented as an offline or online system, depending on requirements.

PLC – Control | SPS-CONTROL 2

Our state-of-the-art SPS-CONTROL 2 controllers, equipped with the powerful Siemens S7 CPU1510, a generous 7-inch touch panel, and energy-efficient, frequency-controlled drives, offer the perfect solution for door and gate controls – from standard applications to sophisticated, customized solutions.

An intuitive, multilingual diagnostic and help menu ensures uncomplicated and quick troubleshooting and error correction directly on site. In addition, all events are precisely logged with date and time to ensure a complete overview.

Our controls also enable seamless communication with multiple gate systems or customer-specific systems – either via potential-free contacts or via modern bus systems such as ProfiNet or BACnet. In this way, we offer maximum flexibility and compatibility for a wide range of applications.

Microcontroller control | HPS-MOTION 2

With the HPS-Motion 2 we offer you a powerful and versatile control solution that was specially developed for standard applications with limited space requirements. Thanks to its compact design and a motor output of up to 5 kW, the control can be flexibly integrated into a wide variety of drive systems - regardless of limit switch systems or brake types.

The HPS-Motion 2 scores with a large number of individually parameterizable inputs and outputs as well as an integrated protective extra-low voltage power supply. This means that the most modern sensors as well as control and signaling devices of all kinds can be connected without any problems. In addition, potential-free relay outputs are available for functions such as position reports, warning lights, traffic light controls and fault reports.

The user-friendly plain text display is not only a practical tool for operator guidance, but also serves as a comprehensive diagnostic aid. Among other things, it enables the display of signal states, the reading of the cycle counter and offers numerous other application possibilities.
