Robertshaw 6000-002 Vibraswitch
The Robertshaw 6000-002 Vibraswitch is an essential malfunction detector designed for the continuous protection of rotating and reciprocating machinery. Operating on 24V DC, this acceleration-sensitive vibration switch features a Single Pole Double Throw (SPDT) contact configuration, allowing for seamless integration into industrial HVACR control circuits for automated shutdown or alarm signaling. Unlike simple displacement monitors, the Robertshaw 6000 Series responds to destructive vibratory forces across a frequency range of 0 to 300 Hz and a horizontal range up to 4.5 G.
Housed in a rugged NEMA 4 weather-resistant enclosure with an aluminum base and high-impact plastic cover, the 6000-002 is built for longevity in demanding mechanical rooms. The unit includes a remote electrical reset and manual reset capability, ensuring technicians can clear alerts after addressing the root cause of the imbalance. Field-adjustable set points enable precise calibration, allowing you to tune the device to the specific operating signature of fans, blowers, or compressors, effectively preventing catastrophic equipment failure from worn bearings or fractured blades.
Key Benefits- Continuous Monitoring: Detects high-frequency vibrations and mechanical imbalances before they lead to total system failure.
- Corrosion Resistant: Features a NEMA 4X rated enclosure suitable for both indoor and outdoor unprotected installations.
- Versatile Reset: Equipped with a 24VDC reset coil for convenient remote restoration from a central control panel.
- Precise Adjustment: Offers a field-tunable G-level set point with 0.1 G increments for exact sensitivity calibration.
How do I calibrate the trip point on the 6000-002?
With the machinery off, turn the adjustment screw until the switch actuates to find the "zero point," then increase the set point beyond the normal operating vibration level of the motor or compressor.
Can this switch be used in hazardous locations?
The 6000-002 is a general-purpose NEMA 4 unit. For explosion-proof requirements (Class I/II), you must specify the 6000-10 series models.
What is the maximum contact rating for the SPDT switch?
The internal SPDT contacts are rated for 2 Amps at 24V DC, 1 Amp at 48V DC, or up to 7 Amps for resistive resistive AC loads. Check your local wiring diagram for specific circuit limits.
