Rice Lake SPU2160 Speed Pickup – Conveyor Belt Speed Sensor
The Rice Lake SPU2160 Speed Pickup is a rugged, mechanically coupled speed sensor designed for dynamic belt weighing systems and bulk material handling applications. Directly coupled to a conveyor tail pulley or non-driven pulley, the SPU2160 continuously monitors belt speed and generates an output signal proportional to shaft rotation for accurate belt scale operation.
Built for harsh industrial environments, the SPU2160 features a durable aluminum IP65-rated enclosure, stainless steel shaft, and reliable signal generation without requiring wheels to ride on the conveyor belt. The sensor is available in both generator-style and encoder-style configurations to meet various belt scale and process control requirements.
