ELEKTRONIK 1.0 General The REOVIB MFS 268 range comprises special, adaptable controllers for use with vibratory feeders. The units generate an output frequency, to drive feeders, that is independent of mains frequency and so exact tuning with springs is not necessary. The feeders also run quieter because of the sinusoidal output signal.

REOVIB MFS 268 UL/CSA Operating Instructions ELEKTRONIK 9.0 Commissioning 9.1 Assembling position Please fasten the devices on a vibration-free underground and take care for sufficient air circulation. 9.2 Preliminary steps • Check that the unit is correct for the local mains supply (rating plate information) and that it is correct- ly rated for the feed system.
REOVIB MFS 268 UL/CSA Operating Instructions ELEKTRONIK 9.3 Putting the equipment into operation 1. Establish the vibrating frequency. 2. Establish the power of the feed system (maximum permissible current draw). For a new feeder where settings are unknown: (see also comments below) Without connecting the feeder, select parameter FAC in menu C210 (reset factory settings), press the cursor key to reset (SAFE) and press the P key to leave the menu.

REOVIB MFS 268 UL/CSA Operating Instructions ELEKTRONIK In regulation mode the magnitude of the output signal has a direct affect on the maximum ampli- tude of the feeder. On bowl feeders it is advisable to fit the sensor as near as possible to the outside diameter and in this...
REOVIB MFS 268 UL/CSA Operating Instructions ELEKTRONIK 10.2.6.3 Relationship between acceleration and amplitude The sensor measures the momentary acceleration of the feeder. It generates a sinusoidal output voltage signal. The acceleration gets higher as the frequency increases. The sensor signal is greater for a higher frequency and lower amplitude than for a low frequency with a higher amplitude.
