Zero speed switches (ZSS) also known as Speed Actuating Sensing Switches [1] are used to detect whether a rotating shaft is turning (even at very slow speeds) [2] in various machines, conveyors, power plants, and in industries involving the production of cement, sugar, textiles, paper, etc. Zero speed switches mainly use electromechanical, electronic, or magnetic proximity technologies.
When the box is activated by turning a knob or pulling a hook, a spring-loaded wheel turns, tapping out a pulsed electrical signal corresponding to the box's number.
