1. Introduction
This dust switch can be installed on small or medium-sized dust collectors and detects dust discharged
from the dust collector. Dust particles coming in contact with or passing near the electrode of the switch
cause an electric charge to transfer from the dust particles to the electrode.
The dust switch detects this transfer of electric charge and outputs ON/OFF signals.

4. Installation
The dust switch must be installed horizontally or vertically.
・A: The Isolation must protrude at least 10 mm from the side wall of the duct.
・B: The distance between the probe tip and the side wall of the duct must be at least 10 mm.
Fig. 2 Installation 1
The dust switch might malfunction if not installed under appropriate operating conditions. Do not install
the dust switch under the following conditions or in an environment.
・Close to a very narrow section.
・A nonconductive pipe, short pipe, or duct is used.
・Environment and conditions do not comply with the Specification.
・There is a chance that dust may accumulate between the pipe wall and the probe when the base
pipe is extended with a short pipe.
・The space between the probe tip and the side wall is less than 10 mm.

●Installation example to Dust Collector
Prepare a duct for installing Dust Switch to the Exhaust port of Dust Collector.
If Dust Switch is installed to this duct, it is possible to deduct the filter breakage of
Dust Collector in the early stage.

5. Wiring
5-1. Wiring Connections
Before wiring, be sure to confirm that the power supply has been turned off.
Failure to observe this instruction may result in an electric shock, electric leakage, fire or other such
accident.
Use shielded pair cable: 0.32 mm to 0.65 mm in diameter x 2.
The cable length should be no more than 100 m taking into consideration the voltage drop.
Power supply: 24 VDC ±10%
Open collector output
The wiring method for the output of the open collector differs in accordance with the power supply
used and the output method of the signal. Use the connection method best suited for the
application.

5-2 Earth connection
The earth terminal is located on the side of the housing.
Be sure to earth the dust switch through the earth terminal.
If not, noise might cause the dust switch to malfunction.

Caution
:
The earth line should not be removed even at the maintenance in case it may cause a fault.

6-2. Adjustment
1) Sensitivity adjusting volume
The sensitivity adjusting volume is used to adjust the detection sensitivity according to the
environment.
The setting range is 0 to 10. The detection sensitivity decreases as the volume is turned
counterclockwise toward 0, and increases as turned clockwise toward 10.
<<Adjustment>>
・Operate the facility after installing Dust Switch.
・Turn Sensitivity adjusting volume clockwise to the position where Detection
Level Indicator(red) lights up.
・After Detection Level Indicator lights up, turn Sensitivity adjusting volume
counterclockwise little by little to the position Detection Level Indicator goes out.
・Turn it further counterclockwise one or two more scales from the position Detection
Level Indicator goes out in order to prevent chattering.
●When a small amount of dust leakage is required:
Turn Sensitivity adjusting volume clockwise for higher sensitivity to detect a small amount of
dust.
●When a small amount of dust leakage needs not to be detected:
Turn Sensitivity adjusting volume counterclockwise for lower sensitivity and the small amount
of dust leakage will not be detected.
2) Detection level delay setting volume
Detection delay setting is a setting to delay the output of detection alarm (called “delay function”).
This delay function can alleviate the effect of chattering if chattering occurs in the signal under
detection. The delay can be adjusted at roughly one-second increments/decrements between
0 and 10 seconds.

on the side of the housing.
4) Contact Matsushima Machinery
Laboratory.
・Detection level
indicator does
not go out.
