Monarch Electronics (India) is experienced in manufacturing SAIL PHOS for last decade in addition to manufacturing of other electronic apparatus, control panel and microprocessor based systems since 1981.

The Technology transfer contract for SAIL PHOS - V (H. M.D.) between SAIL RDCIS and Monarch Electronics (India), Kolkata - 75 entrust Monarch to manufacture and to market the SAIL PHOS - V / HMD the system have been installed in SAIL and non-SAIL Steel Plants and Rolling Mills at different parts of India and abroad, for sensing the Bloom, Billets, Wire, Rod, Section, Rail, Plate etc.

PRODUCT BACK GROUND: Photosensors are useful in detecting the presence of luminious as well as non-luminious object in ferrous / non-ferrous Industries. It has cost, high degree of reliability and compact size, incorporating unique feature, SAIL PHOS sensore have proved their supremacy in Steel Industries, over conventional photosensors used in Steel Industries.

SAIL PHOS - V (H.M.D.) : It comprises of Input sensing unit and output unit.
Input Sensing Unit: Sensitive to visible and higher infrared Radiation (or ther light sources above 800^oC)

Output Unit: (i) Relay potential free isolated contacts - 12 Volt DC, 2N.O. And 2N.C. (ii) Open collector (iii) Transistor. (iv) Opto coupler I.C. (v) Visual Indicator (vi) Buzzer (vii) Counter 4 display on demand (optional).

OUTPUT LOGIC: Can be changed by switch, from one state to another. (i) Dark to light, (ii) Light to Dark.

RESPONSE : (i) <2ml-sec. for Relay (ii) <0.3ml-sec. for transistor (iii) <0.3ml-sec. for Opto coupler.
The sensor is able to distinguish two successive metals which roll at a Rolling speed of <15mtr / sec. with a narrow spacing of 10mtr, distance between tail and tip of two rods.

ENVIRONMENT: Sensors are designed to operate in Steel Plant environment and able to resist high degree of vibrations and withstand at following temperature ranges. (i) Upto 800^oC without any protection (ii) Upto 100oc with special insulating protection cover(iii) >100oc with water / air cooling jacket available on demand max upto 200oc.

DETAILS: Sensor is comprised of two units. (i) Signal processing Unit-Dimesnsion 120mm (L) X 70mm (W) x 60mm(H) & Height from platform 150mm (ii) Power supply unit-Dimension 240mm (L) X X 165mm (W) X105 (Recomended distance between two units, should be 1 mtr to Max <200 MTR)

MOUNTING : Sensing Unit has reliable mounting arrangement of 360o horizontal and 120o vertical, thus providing universal targeting of object. A target viewer is also provided. Single, Dual, multiple sensing units can also be provided.

Remote Test: Facilitate quick check about the health of sensing unit, signal processing unit and cable system.

FOCUSING DISTANCE (Tested):

AUTO CUTTING: Encoder (Length) based or Time Based System; With the help of "MONARCH" Microprocessor Based Auto control system, while sensing the Hot object by SAIL PHOS-V (H.M.D.). The Auto control systerm can achieve:
(i) Fully automatic cutting of Hot metal on Rolling Mill, with an accuracy with encoder based = + 4" & with time based = + 10" approx. for any Mill Speed an upto 12 nos of each cut length, more than 80ft length. 3 rows digital display, reovides the number of CUTS, BILLETS AND RANDOMS.
(ii) For quick setting of any LENGTH combination of cut length Appropriate required location can be instantly & Individualy selection for 15 combinations of setting length on line instant setting on demand.
(iii) For T.M.T. Plant Auto by-pass of last lap (random upto 25ft) through the T.M.T. Box. While T.M.T. Auto by-pass saves Break-Down Time of the Plant. (Approx 1¹/₂ hour per shift).
(iv) "W" channel Changing to opposite side, on every new entry of meterial on "W" channel this ensures smooth functioning of cutting and clearing "W" Channel
(V) The system can provide micro Computer based Digital Data Logging & Data Recording on L.C.D Screen. Alos print out on your printer can obtained OPTIONAL.
(vi) Encoder (Length) Based special Auto cut; Double Processor (Stand by) System can be Provided for Urgent need of other Encoder Channel on Demand (Ofsonal).

Ultimately our Auto system is a guaranted COST AND SCRAPSAVER upto 3% for any Mill.
