Proton Products InteliSENS DG2030 Diameter Gauge Instruction Manual (Issue 1a)
Electrical interfaces
Must be specified for factory installation at time of ordering; cannot be field-retrofitted.
• 3x analogue (±10V) outputs.
• Independently programmable functions for X, Y, Z
(DG3030/3060 only) diameters, average diameter, diameter
errors from preset value, ovality and ovality error.
Proportional Integral (PI) feedback controller
• PI feedback diameter control via adjustment of insulation
extruders or capstan drives.
• Isolated ±20V analogue input and ±10V analogue output for
connection to insulation extruders or capstan drives.
OPTIONAL FIRMWARE
Optional firmware may be end-user enabled through the purchase of a license key. Some optional
firmware functions are dependent on the presence of optional interfaces.
Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) Analysis
FFT
• Calculates FFT frequency spectra of measured diameters.
• Identifies periodically occurring diameter fluctuations caused
by production line problems.
• Essential for telecommunications cable lines where periodic
diameter fluctuations can degrade cable bandwidth.
Proton part number
00054SW013
Statistical Process Control (SPC) automatic set point control
• Minimises insulation material consumption whilst holding the
insulation diameter in tolerance.
• Requires the PI feedback controller interface option
(00047MC061) to be installed.
Single Measurement Flaw Detection (SMFD)
• High-speed lump and neck flaw detection.
