System overview
INTRODUCTION TO THE VM600
Mk2
MACHINERY PROTECTION SYSTEM (MPS)
3- MPC4
Mk2
+IOC4
Mk2
machinery protection and condition monitoring module.
The MPC4
Mk2
+IOC4
Mk2
machinery protection and condition monitoring module
provides 4 dynamic channels and 2 auxiliary channels configurable as either tachometer
inputs or DC inputs. The MPC4
Mk2
module is always used with an associated IOC4
Mk2
module as a pair/set of modules. These modules are used primarily to monitor vibration
for the purposes of machinery protection and condition monitoring.
In general, a VM600
Mk2
/VM600 rack used for machinery protection and condition monitoring
contains:
• One or more MPC4
Mk2
+IOC4
Mk2
machinery protection and condition monitoring
modules.
Depending on the application, the following type of modules can also be installed in the
VM600
Mk2
/VM600 rack (ABE04x or ABE056):
4- RLC16
Mk2
relay module.
The RLC16
Mk2
relay module provides an additional 16 relays for when the 4 relays of a
MPC4
Mk2
+IOC4
Mk2
module are not enough. Accordingly, the RLC16
Mk2
is an optional
module.
All the above items can be used to make a stand-alone VM600
Mk2
machinery protection
system (MPS), that is, a VM600
Mk2
MPS that is not permanently connected to a network.
A networked VM600
Mk2
machinery protection system (MPS), that is, a VM600
Mk2
MPS that
is permanently connected to a network will in addition contain the following hardware in the
VM600 rack (ABE04x):
5- CPU
Mk2
+IOC
Mk2
rack controller and communications interface module.
Depending on the application (and irrespective of whether the rack is used in a stand-alone
or a networked configuration), one or more of the following power supplies can be used
outside a VM600
Mk2
/VM600 rack (ABE04x):
• APFxxx 24 V
DC
power supplies
• Any equivalent low-noise power supply provided by the customer.
These devices must be used for GSI1xx galvanic separation units, GSV safety barriers and
transducer and signal conditioner front-ends having a current requirement greater than
25 mA. They will often be mounted in the cubicle in which the rack is installed.
NOTE: Auxiliary sensor power supplies (ASPSs) installed in a VM600
Mk2
/VM600 rack
(ABE04x) perform the same function as external power supplies such as the
APFxxx 24 V
DC
power supplies. That is, they are used to power external hardware
such as GSI galvanic separation units or signal conditioners that require more
power than can be provided by a MPC4
Mk2
+IOC4
Mk2
module.
NOTE: Refer to individual data sheets for full technical specifications of the VM600
Mk2
MPS hardware.
