Product Details
The 16-Channel Output Relay Module is designed for high reliability for the plant's most critical rotating machinery. This monitor is used together with the AMS 6500 ATG to build a complete API 670 machinery protection monitor. Applications include steam, gas, compressors, and hydro turbo machinery. Any channel clear, alert, or alarm signal can be selected as input to the 16-Channel Output Relay Module. Use Boolean logic, apply time delay, and select an output relay to complete the configuration. Easy-to-use software provides graphical logic displays that guide the user pictorially through configuration. The AMS 6500 Machinery Health Monitor is an integral part of PlantWeb® and AMS software. PlantWeb provides operations - integrated machinery health combined with the Ovation® and DeltaV™ process control system. AMS software provides maintenance personnel advanced predictive and performance diagnostic tools to confidently and accurately determine machine malfunctions early.
A6500-RC module has the following features:
- High reliability: Redundant design ensures that the system continues to operate when a single component fails.
- Hot-swap capability: Hot-swap is supported, and modules can be added or removed without downtime.
- Modular design: 3U-sized, 2-slot plug-in modules save half the cabinet space compared to traditional 6U-sized cards.
- Inputs and outputs: 66 inputs and 16 relay outputs support Boolean logic and time delay configurations.
