Ross SysCon Custom-built Control Systems
December 26, 2016
Every Ross SysCon Control System is designed and engineered to guarantee ultimate efficacy no matter the application.
Shown is a NEMA 12 Control Panel which operates a Ross V-Cone Tumble Blender. Two Variable Frequency Drives (VFD’s) are internally mounted for controlling the tumbling vessel and intensifier bar. Main disconnect with lockout provision, color touch screen display with viewing and control functions, individual Start/Stop/Speed and Jog controls, cycle timer, system E-stop pushbutton and safety gate switch circuit are all supplied.
Ross SysCon supplies state-of-the-art equipment, such as the color touch screen or Human Machine Interface (HMI) employed in this particular control panel. The HMI is used as a regulatory tool. It communicates with the VFD’s for start/stop/speed control as well as monitoring the output frequency and motor current. It also utilizes a cycle timer function that stops both motors when time elapses to zero. The blender motor has a brake system to stop the rotation within seconds.
A subsidiary of Charles Ross & Son Company, Ross SysCon is a full service machine and controls fabrication facility, serving customers throughout North America, Europe and Asia. The company is comprised of a diverse group of veteran process control engineers, designers and programmers, offering decades of experience in virtually all the process industries.
