1.3 Installing a rack
A VM600 machinery protection system (MPS) is typically housed in a VM600 system rack
(ABE04x), that is, a ‘standard’ a 19 inch rack (84TE) with a height of 6U (6HE). Two types of
this rack exist: the ABE040 and the ABE042. These are identical, except for the position of
the rack mounting brackets. An example of a VM600 MPS housed in an ABE040 rack is
shown in Figure 1-4.
A VM600 rack contains a front card cage and a rear card cage. The card cages are separated
by the rack backplane. The appearance of the front panel and rear panel of the rack depends
entirely on the types of cards installed in the two card cages.
