Belt Alignment Sensors and Belt Misalignment Switches for Conveyor Monitoring
Electro-Sensors belt alignment sensors and belt misalignment switches provide continuous monitoring of conveyor belts to detect belt wander and prevent damage. A conveyor belt alignment sensor can deliver early warning signals for bucket elevators, conveyors, and other bulk material handling equipment by detecting belt misalignment. Designed for reliable conveyor protection, each belt alignment switch can activate an alarm or shutdown before a significant hazard occurs.
Sensor Features
- 4-20 mA or RTD Output

- Intrinsically Safe or Dust Ignition-Proof Models
- Patented Design (TT420-LT)
- Several Mounting Options
- Accurately Monitor Belt Alignment
Belt Misalignment Warning & Shutdown - Monitor Temperature on a Wide Range of Machinery
- Three unique Rub Block Door Assemblies (Hinged, Adjustable, Uni-Strut)
- Door Assemblies Facilitate Regular Maintenance Inspections
How Belt Alignment Sensors Detect Conveyor Belt Misalignment
Electro-sensors belt alignment sensors are mounted along the conveyor belt that needs to be monitored for misalignment. The rub block assemblies are mounted so that the brass surface area is in-line with the edge of the conveyor belt. When the belt wanders it then rubs up against the brass block. The contact with the belt creates friction and heat that the sensor in the brass block records as a rise in temperature.
Threaded temperature sensors are used to monitor leg and conveyor belt alignment with three versions of rub block doors. All temperature sensors are factory calibrated and come with straight or right angled conduit adapters. Electro-Sensors offers Temperature Sensors that are Intrinsically safe for use in Class I (Grp C,D), Class II (Grp E, F, G). Electro-Sensors also offers Temperature Sensors that are Dust-Ignition Proof with Class II (E,F,G) ratings that are designed for use with conduit and are reverse-wiring protected.
