2 1-channel input module for
acceleration sensors
2.1 Function
♦ The input module for acceleration sensors, abbreviated to A-TIM
(Acceleration Transducer Interface Module), is separately laid out for
connection of a sensor.
♦ There are two executions for an A-TIM, distinguished by the type of
sensor. As a result there are various requirements for the sensor that
will be connected:
◊ A-TIM (-24 V) for connection of sensors with a power requirement
of -24 V/max. 30 mA.
◊ A-TIM (CCS) for connection of sensors with a constant-current
power requirement (max. 8 mA).
♦ Input modules are managed internally in the instrument through a
Sensor block (Firmware), i.e. an A-TIM and Sensor block together form
a physical interface between the
VIBROCONTROL 6000 Compact monitor and
the outside world. The measured signal from the sensor is acquired and
made available to the signal path for further processing and
assessment.
♦ An A-TIM combines the following hardware functions:
• Differential input amplifier
• Signal amplifier
• Switchable integrator
• De-coupled buffered output (BNC socket at front)
for sensor output signal
• Sensor power supply
• LED signalling
