KB2 Fibre-Optic Sheet Break Detection system is designed to

monitor sheet breaks in harsh environments. The non-contact

sensor is placed above or under the web to be monitored.

The system is proven with hundreds of installations around the

world, and set as a mill standard for many customers.

Thanks to the air purged system in the sensor head, keeping the

optics free from dirt, steam or high temperatures, KB2 is suitable

for installations in harsh environments or where the space is

limited. In addition to open-draw applications the breaks can be

detected against felt, wire, or even against a cylinder.

RGB Colour and IR measurement

KB2 has both, RGB or Infrared light sources to perform superiorly

with all paper and board grades and applications regardless

of colour. The RGB colour measurement can handle all

sheet, wire and felt colours providing reliable break detection.
