Product Description

Speed switch 6DK20

The 6DK20 is a robust and reliable electronic speed switch manufactured by Johannes Hübner Giessen, a leader in encoder and drive technology. This device is engineered for precise monitoring of overspeed, underspeed, and standstill conditions in a wide range of industrial applications, including cranes, conveyors, turbines, and other heavy-duty machinery. It processes input signals from incremental encoders or proximity sensors to trigger its relay outputs when pre-set speed thresholds are crossed, ensuring operational safety and process control. Designed for easy integration, the 6DK20 is typically housed in a compact enclosure suitable for DIN rail mounting within a control cabinet.

Technical Specifications:

  • Input Signal: Compatible with incremental encoders (HTL/TTL) and proximity sensors (pnp/npn)

  • Switching Functions: Monitors overspeed, underspeed, and standstill with up to 4 programmable switching ranges

  • Output: Potential-free relay changeover contacts for each switching range

  • Frequency Range: Typically 0.1 Hz to 20 kHz

  • Mounting: Standard DIN rail mounting (EN 50022)

  • Configuration: Adjustable parameters via front panel for easy setup and commissioning
