The G9SX-LM allows an operator to access the machine for maintenance work while it is running at a safe, maximum threshold of 10 Hz. If the motor exceeds the preset speed, the G9SX-LM will stop the machine immediately. The monitoring unit is rated for 24 VDC operation, and is available with spring-cage or screw terminal blocks. Detailed LED indicators provide easy-to-read and understand diagnostics.
