SITRANS WM300 MFA Overview SITRANS WM300 MFA is a highly sensitive, dual setpoint motion sensor alarm unit, used with MSP and XPP probes. The probe detects an increase or decrease in the speed of rotating, reciprocating, or conveying equipment and sends the information to the SITRANS WM300 MFA.
(50/60 Hz) from nearby power transformers, heater elements, or large industrial motors, because these can affect the probe’s performance. An additional remote display can be connected to the SITRANS WM300 MFA for access to the unit within an enclosure. SITRANS WM300 MFA...
Do not mount SITRANS WM300 MFA in direct sunlight. The SITRANS WM300 MFA can be DIN or wall mounted. In a stand-alone enclosure or panel arrangement, the device can use a power transformer to take AC to DC voltage. An...

Input I2 must realize a transition from "Lo - Hi - Lo" in order to initiate the internal timer used to maintain the output relay closed. If the monitored equipment does not reach normal operating speed within the set time period, the relays will de-energize creating a failsafe alarm condition.
