The SAFERECORD Mine Hoist Speed Recorder is a complete Winder Speed Recorder system for dual or single drum mine hoists/winders. The system calculates the speed, acceleration and deceleration of the hoist/winder using the existing Speed Tacho Generator attached to the drive shaft. Features: User interface Playback mode Positive and Negative recorded speeds Brake Input trace High visibility display High Level of Data Protection Remote access and operation via TCP/IP network communications User Friendly configuration and data extraction Import/export facility for data analysis, storage and auditing on remote PC Analysis – Zoom/Scroll. Save as PDF or print a hard copy. LEGISLATION – RECORDING DEVICE 17. The employer must take reasonably practicable measures to ensure that a winder with a permitted speed exceeding 5 m/s is equipped with a recording device, e.g. tachograph that records at least time, speed, acceleration, and deceleration, and that the information recorded is kept readily available at the mine for a period of 30 days. “Recoverable, recordable system” means any recordable system that will retain the data captured therein indefinitely and which – a) captures the time and date of every entry, name and signature of every person making an entry; b) allows for the retrieving of all data captured; c) Incorporates measures to prevent unauthorized changes to any captured data; d) is auditable; and e) in the case of an electronic system, is backed up weekly. Ectronic Control Solutions Reg 9702548/07 Directors: KC Nicol (Bsc Eng Elec WITS) RJ Allsop HIGH LEVEL OF DATA PROTECTION SAFERECORD incorporates the highest levels of protection against the accidental loss of valuable data. A key feature is the use of flash memory technology, which eliminates reliance on batteries to maintain stored data during a power failure. Multiple users can be configured, each with individual user name, password and access rights. A comprehensive audit log records configuration changes, calibration changes, system events etc. Encoded data is stored on the internal flash disk within the PC 104 and can be manually exported to an external USB flash disk. Manual and Automatic data downloading ensures one level of data storage redundancy User interface speed graph AUTOMATIC DATA DOWNLOAD Utilising a network link a number of SAFERECORD units interface to a central server The server software extracts the data from the SAFERECORD units connected to the server automatically on a daily basis The data is stored locally to view or analyse and sent via E-mail to the relevant recipients In the event of the network connection not being available a manual download would extract the required data Using the network the status of the various SAFERECORD units can be determined and remote configuration and software updates performed MANUAL DATA EXTRACTION AND STORAGE Data is copied from the internal flash disk to a USB flash disk inserted by the operator. The data is then copied onto the Central PC for storage and can be retrieved at any time for analysis and investigation, using dedicated SAFERECORD software. The data can be analysed using any office PC with SAFERECORD software installed. Data can be saved to a PDF format and a hard copy printed from the Central PC. The data will be stored on the internal compact flash, the USB compact flash and the Central PC indefinitely until deleted by the user. The Central PC software is capable of storing and sorting the data from multiple SAFERECORD systems. Therefore only one Central PC is required per shaft. Ectronic Control Solutions Reg 9702548/07 Directors: KC Nicol (Bsc Eng Elec WITS) RJ Allsop SPEED GRAPH The graph below is a typical example of a chart that would be received via E-Mail on a daily basis The graph includes negative and positive speeds and the input trace for the status of the Brakes NAVIGATING AND ANALYSING DATA Data is imported onto a “Central PC” daily, as per regulation and is accessible for analysis and auditing. A separate “Daily folder” is created for each day of data that is imported onto the Central PC. This data is accessible by selecting the daily folder from the list. By selecting the folder, the system enters the “Playback Mode”, in which the data can be played back and graphs drawn up for a specific time period. The data will be stored on the internal compact flash, the USB compact flash and the Central PC indefinitely until deleted by the user. INPUT/OUTPUT Tachometer Generator Input (Analogue Input) SAFERECORD utilizes the existing “Speed Tachometer Generator” used for the chart recorder and Driver’s speed indication. Therefore there is no need for additional Tachometer generators or Pulse encoders to be installed on the Winder’s Drum/Drive Shafts. Digital I/O A maximum of 4 Digital Inputs and 1 Digital Output can be interfaced into the system. Each of these inputs is assigned an input channel. Pulse Encoder Inputs If no existing speed tachometer generator is available, one pulse encoder, which is driven directly from the drive shaft, can be interfaced into the system. Ectronic Control Solutions Reg 9702548/07 Directors: KC Nicol (Bsc Eng Elec WITS) RJ Allsop The pulse train from the encoder, interfaced to 2 digital inputs is used to calculate the speed, acceleration and deceleration of the hoist/winder drum.
