Abstract: To realize clearly the application situation of the belt conveyor monitoring apparatus and solve the problem of lacking reliable intelligent monitoring devices, typical applying molds at home were analyzed and later a monitoring apparatus for mining belt conveyors based on speedy STC MCU and IPC was designed. A 1 ∶ N communication network was established, and hence data acquisition, machinery protection and remote monitoring came true. The observation in field shows that the new apparatus can offer realtime running and fail data and has complete monitoring functions, flexible working modes. It will provide technical references on the replacement of traditional ones and be further employed to many other mining devices and in other sectors after necessary innovation.
