Power Source
The TCS-200-1 series Tension Controls operates
from a power source of 115 or 230 VAC, 50/60 Hz
input. Primary voltage is determined by the
customer's input voltage source. The control is
factory set to accept 115 VAC input. Refer to the
wiring section for 230 VAC input connections.
Control
The TCS-200-1 series controls are selectable
voltage or current controlled power supply
designed to power up to a 16 magnet Electro Disc
tension brake system, Electromagnetic Particle
Brakes, TB series brakes or Advanced Technology
tension brakes. This control can be operated
manually from the front panel or remotely via an
analog voltage input, a current input, a remote
pot, or a roll follower. External inputs are also
provided for remote brake "off", "run", and "stop"
functions, as well as front panel control of these
functions.

Introduction
The Warner Electric Tension Control system is
comprised of a tension brake, control module, and
optional external sensor input.
This manual has been designed to cover
installation, start-up, adjustment, and
maintenance of your tension control system and
covers the control system only. Further
information on brake sizing and selection can be
found in catalogs P-1234 or P-771.
The analog voltage and current inputs are
electrically isolated from the main power circuitry
of the control when 15-35 VDC supply is provided
to maintain full isolation. If isolation is not
needed, an on board 15 VDC supply is jumpered
to act as a default.
Sensors
When the TCS-200-1 series controls are operated
in a remote torque adjust mode, a 1,000 ohm
potentiometer is required. This should be a linear
type potentiometer with a rating of .5 watts, 10
percent tolerance, and a .5 percent linearity.
For roll follower input applications, a 1,000 ohm
potentiometer with a rating of .5 watts, 10 percent
tolerance, and .5 percent linearity is required for
best performance.
Brakes
All 24 VDC tension brakes that Warner Electric
offers, to a maximum of 4.25 amps, can be used
with the TCS-200-1 tension control. For all 24
VDC tension brakes that require greater current
capability from the control (not to exceed 5.8
amps), use a TCS-200-1H. The brake converts
electrical current supplied by the control into
torque, which retards material flow, maintaining
the desired web tension.

Theory of Operation
When in operation, the control is powered by a
standard 115/230 VAC line. The control has a
transformer that converts that voltage to a level
suitable for any 24 VDC brake system. The signal is
rectified to DC and pulse width modulated (PWM) to
the desired brake current via the TENSION ADJUST
knob.
The front panel TENSION ADJUST feeds a small
voltage to a comparator, which compares this signal
to a triangular wave. This is where the PWM pulse is
generated. This pulse is then inverted and used to
drive a power circuit. The main brakes and a sense
brake are then energized by the power circuit at
regular intervals. From the sense brake, a growth and
decay signal is converted to a voltage that can be
added to the signal by setting a jumper on the inside
of the cover. This signal, when selected, is used to
maintain constant current to the brake. The signal
must not be selected when no sense brake is
connected.
The control has several options that allow for
external/remote tension adjust in addition to the
tension adjust pot on the front of the panel. Two
such options are the remote pot or a roll follower.
Another is the option for an analog input of voltage
or current from a PLC or ultrasonic sensor. A special
feature of the analog inputs is that they are optically
isolated from the rest of the control circuitry if an
external power source is used to power the isolated
circuits. The isolation is needed when using a PLC or
an external power supply for the ultrasonic sensor.
An internal power source is also available and
jumpered in as default if isolation is not necessary.
The tension adjust pot on the front of the panel
becomes a span adjust when any of the external
control options are connected.
The control also has the capability to duplicate the
front panel selector switch at a remote location.
Brake "off" mode overrides the tension adjustment
and provides for resetting the short circuit indicator.
In the "run" mode, output operation is normal and is
controlled by any of the front panel or remote tension
adjust features discussed above. The brake "stop"
mode provides for full output current to the brake.
The two indicators on the front of the panel are green
for "power on" and red to indicate a short circuit.
When a short occurs in the brake, the control
disables the power circuits to prevent damage. Turn
the switch to "off" to reset the short circuit indicator.
Because this is a basic tension control, no antiresidual circuits, zero adjust circuits, or other
complex control circuits (found in other Warner
Electric tension control systems) are included in the
TCS-200-1 series controls.

o 4. Attach conduit or seal tight connectors.
The control is now ready to be wired. Refer to the
wiring section of this manual for proper system
wiring.
Note: If angular rotation is not adequate, insufficient
output from the control is possible. In this case, a
timing belt drive between the roll follower pivot-point
and the sensor potentiometer may be necessary to
obtain adequate angular rotation.
Brake Installation
Refer to the brake manual that is appropriate for the
brake selected for its installation procedures.
External Sensor Mounting (Optional)
Options for four types of external sensor inputs are
available. These consist of either an external torque
adjust, roll follower input that provides a signal
directly proportional to the diameter of the roll to be
processed, analog voltage, or analog current input.
Determine which type of external sensor will be used
and proceed to the appropriate section of this
manual.
Remote Torque Adjust Potentiometer (Optional)
o 1. Select an appropriate mounting location for
the external torque-adjust potentiometer.
Note: In determining this mounting location, take into
consideration the routing of the wires necessary to
connect the control, access for the operator, and
space required by the physical size of the
potentiometer.
o 2. Drill a mounting hole based on the bushing
diameter of the potentiometer selected.
o 3. Mount and secure the potentiometer.
o 2. Secure the roll follower potentiometer. This
completes the mounting for a roll follower
potentiometer. Refer to the wiring section of this
manual for proper control wiring.
Analog Input (Optional)
o 1. Select an appropriate mounting location for
the PLC or ultrasonic sensor.
o 2. Mount and secure the PLC or ultrasonic
sensor according to the specifications for those
products.
This completes the mounting. Refer to the wiring
section of this manual for proper control wiring.
System Wiring
System Wiring Precautions
The following wiring precautions will help you
properly wire and install a trouble free system.
o 1. Use a proper gauge wire for all wiring.
o 2. Insure that wires are cut and stripped so that
no excess bare wire is exposed.
o 3. Segregate AC input power from control
switching and external sensor wiring (if used).
This completes the mounting for an external remote
torque adjust potentiometer. Refer to the wiring
section of this manual for proper control wiring.
o 4. Do not run AC power lines with DC power,
input sensor wiring, or switching wiring. Noise
transients can be easily transferred, causing
erratic control operation.
