Product Structure
Schematic (cross-section):

Components: Brittle polystyrene shell, internal conductive contact (normally open or normally closed), two insulated lead wires.
Installation & Wiring
- Select correct diameter (ØB) to fit shear pin center hole.
- Clean the axial hole inside the shear pin.
- Insert the annunciator fully into the hole, ensuring leads exit from the back side.
- Connect lead wires:
– Normally closed (CJX): connect to a compatible shear pin signal unit.
– Normally open (KJX): connect directly to alarm input (≤220V, ≤1A). - Secure leads away from moving parts. Test by simulating shear pin break.
Safety Warnings & Precautions
- Do not exceed rated voltage (220V) or current (1A).
- Use only within 0–45°C and humidity ≤80%.
- Do not hammer or force into the bore; select correct diameter.
- For CJX type: must be used with a dedicated signal unit.
- Replace broken annunciator – do not repair.
Troubleshooting & Common Faults
| Fault | Possible Cause | Remedy |
|---|---|---|
| No alarm when shear pin breaks | Broken internal contact, incorrect wiring, signal unit failure | Check continuity; verify signal conditioner power; replace annunciator |
| False alarm | Moisture, damaged leads, partial crack | Inspect insulation; test with multimeter; replace if damaged |
| Annunciator does not fracture | Wrong diameter (too small) | Match bore diameter; reinstall correct model |
| High internal resistance (>0.5Ω) | Corrosion or oxidation | Replace annunciator |
Packaging & Storage: Store in dry environment (-10°C to +45°C, ≤80% RH).
Ordering example: CJX-14-L80 (diameter 14mm, length 80mm).
