204-040-100-012 ABE040 and ABE042 system racks

Description:

The different versions of ABE04x system rack enable different mounting options to support various markets and applications.The VM600 system rack has an integrated VME backplane which provides the electrical interconnections between the installed VM600Mk2/VM600 modules (cards): power supply, signal processing, input /output, relay and CPUx “rack controller”. It also includes a power supply check relay, available at the rear of the rack, which is used to indicate that the installed RPS6U rack power supplies are operating normally.

Either one or two RPS6U rack power supplies can be installed in a VM600Mk2/VM600 ABE04x system rack. A rack with one RPS6U power supply (330 W version) supports the power requirements for a full rack of modules (cards) in applications with operating temperatures up to 50°C (122°F). Alternatively, a rack can have two RPS6U power supplies installed in order to either support rack power supply redundancy or in order to supply power to the modules (cards) non-redundantly over a wider range of environmental conditions (see Power supply on page 4).

VM600Mk2/VM600 processing modules (cards) are installed in the front of the rack and the associated input/output modules (cards) are installed in the rear. The input/output modules (cards) provide connectors for the connection of sensors/measurement chains and for the sharing of various signals with external systems such as a DCS or PLC.

In general, VM600Mk2/VM600 ABE04x system racks are configured in the factory before delivery so they are supplied ready-to-use. Optionally, each module (card) can be reconfigured to meet the needs of a particular machinery monitoring application using the appropriate software package from Meggitt vibro-meter®: VM600 MPSx or VibroSight®.
