Description

MPC4 Card

The MPC4 Machine Protection Card is the centerpiece of the VM600 series of Machine Protection Systems (MPS) from Meggitt’s Vibrometer® product line. The card is extremely versatile, capable of measuring and monitoring up to four dynamic signal inputs and two velocity inputs simultaneously.

The dynamic signal inputs are fully programmable and can accept the following signals

acceleration, velocity and displacement (proximity) signals. On-board multi-channel processing allows measurement of a wide range of physical parameters including relative and absolute vibration, Smax, eccentricity, thrust position, absolute and differential case expansion, displacement and dynamic pressure.

Digital processing includes digital filtering, integration or differentiation (if required), rectification (RMS, average, true peak, or true peak-to-peak), order tracking (amplitude and phase), and measurement of transducer-to-target clearance.

The speed (tachometer) input accepts signals from a variety of speed sensors, including systems based on proximity probes, magnetic pulse pickup sensors, or TTL signals. Fractional tachometer ratios are also supported.

Configurations can be expressed in metric or imperial units. Alarm and hazard setpoints are fully programmable Alarm time delay, hysteresis and latching, hysteresis and latching. Alarm and hazard levels can also be adjusted based on speed or any external information. The alarm and hazard levels can also be adjusted based on speed or any external information.

Each alarm level has an internal digital output (on the appropriate IOC4T I/O card). These alarm signals can drive the four local relays on the IOC4T card, and/or relays on optional relay cards such as the RLC16 or IRC4 via the VM600 rack’s raw bus or open collector (OC) bus.

Processed dynamic (vibration) and velocity signals are available as analog outputs at the rear of the rack (on the front panel of the IOC4T). Voltage signals (0 to 10 V) and current signals (4 to 20 mA) are available.

The MPC4 performs self-tests and diagnostic procedures at power-up. In addition, the card’s built-in “OK system” continuously monitors the signal level provided by the measurement chain (sensors and/or signal conditioners) and indicates any problems caused by broken transmission lines, faulty sensors or signal conditioners.

An LED on the front panel of the MPC4 indicates whether a processing or hardware error has occurred. A further six LEDs, one for each input channel, indicate whether the OK system has detected a fault and whether an alarm has occurred on the channel.

There are three versions of the MPC4 card: the “standard” version, the “circuit independent” version, and the “safe” (SIL) version, all of which use the appropriate IOC4T input /output cards as card pairs.

Different versions of the MPC4 card

There are different versions of the MPC4 card, including “Standard”, “Circuit Independent” and “Secure” (SIL) versions. In addition, some versions have a conformal coating applied to the card’s circuitry to provide additional environmental protection against chemicals, dust, moisture and temperature extremes.

Both the “Standard” version and the “Safety” (SIL) version of the MPC4 card are certified to IEC 61508 and ISO 13849 for use in functional safety environments such as SIL 1 according to IEC 61508 and ISO 13849-1 for PL c.

It is also software configurable via RS-232 (on the front panel of the card).

The ‘Secure’ (SIL) MPC4 card (MPC4SIL) has been developed to provide a wider range of installation options. Specifically, the VM600 rack also contains condition monitoring cards (e.g. XMx16) and relay cards (e.g. IRC4). In order to certify the security of these configurations, it is necessary to ensure that the MPC4SIL is isolated from the other cards in the VM600 chassis so that its configuration is not inadvertently modified.

As such, the MPC4SIL card does not include a VME-compatible slave interface, does not support tachometer (speed) channels, and does not provide all of the signal processing features of the “standard” MPC4 card (see “Additional Specifications – ‘Standard’ Only” on page 9). “ and “Circuit Independent” MPC4 cards).

Isolation of MPS and CMS

The VM600 rack, Mechanical Protection Card, Condition Monitoring Card and associated software have been designed to comply with the API670 standard for the isolation of the Mechanical Protection System (MPS) and Condition Monitoring System (CMS) to ensure that the functionality of the MPS is not dependent on, or in any way affected by, the operation of the CMS.

Therefore, whilst Mechanical Protection and Condition Monitoring cards can easily share sensor signals from the measurement chain, in a VM600 rack, the MPC4/IOC4T card pair does not share any communication buses with the XMx16/XIO16T Condition Monitoring card pair and the MPC4/IOC4T card pair is configured and operated using the VM600 MPSx software (whereas the XMx16/XIO16T card pair is configured and operated using the VM600 MPSx software (whereas the XMx16/XIO16T card pair is configured and operated using the VM600 MPSx software). XIO16T card pair is configured and operated using VibroSight® software).

The IOC4T Input/Output card is the signal interface for Meggitt’s VM600 series MPC4 machine protection card.

It is mounted on the rear of the VM600 rack and connects directly to the rack backplane via two connectors.

Each IOC4T card is associated with the corresponding MPC4 card and is mounted directly to the rear of the VM600 rack (ABE04x or ABE056).

The IOC4T operates in slave mode and communicates with the MPC4 through connector P2 using the Industrial Packet (IP) interface.

The front panel of the IOC4T (rear of the VM600 frame) contains terminal strip connectors for connecting the transmission cables from the measurement chain (sensors and/or signal conditioners).

The threaded terminal connectors are also used to input all signals from any external control system and output all signals to any external control system.

The IOC4T card protects all inputs and outputs from electromagnetic interference (EMI) and signal surges and complies with electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) standards.

The IOC4T connects raw dynamic (vibration) and velocity signals from sensors to the MPC4.

These signals are processed and passed back to the IOC4T and made available on its front panel (rear of the VM600) terminal strip.

For dynamic signals, four on-board digital-to-analog converters (DACs) provide calibrated signal outputs in the 0 to 10 V range.

In addition, four on-board voltage-to-current converters provide current output signals in the 4 to 20 mA range (jumper optional).

The IOC4T contains four local relays that can be used for any specific alarm signal under software control.

For example, in a typical application, these relays can be used to signal an MPC4 fault or a problem detected by the common alarms (Sensor Normal, Alarm, and Hazard).

In addition, 32 digital signals representing alarms are transmitted to the rack backplane and can be used by the optional RLC16 Relay Card and/or IRC4 Intelligent Relay Card (with optional jumpers) mounted in the rack.

Application Information

The IOC4T, when paired with the MPC4 Machinery Protection Card, is ideally suited for machinery monitoring and protection in a variety of industrial applications.

Each IOC4T card is associated with the corresponding MPC4 card and is mounted directly to the rear of the VM600 rack (ABE04x or ABE056).

The IOC4T operates in slave mode and communicates with the MPC4 through connector P2 using the Industrial Packet (IP) interface.

The front panel of the IOC4T (rear of the VM600 frame) contains terminal strip connectors for connecting the transmission cables from the measurement chain (sensors and/or signal conditioners).

The threaded terminal connectors are also used to input all signals from any external control system and output all signals to any external control system.

The IOC4T card protects all inputs and outputs from electromagnetic interference (EMI) and signal surges and complies with electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) standards.

The IOC4T connects raw dynamic (vibration) and velocity signals from sensors to the MPC4.

These signals are processed and passed back to the IOC4T and made available on its front panel (rear of the VM600) terminal strip.

For dynamic signals, four on-board digital-to-analog converters (DACs) provide calibrated signal outputs in the 0 to 10 V range.

In addition, four on-board voltage-to-current converters provide current output signals in the 4 to 20 mA range (jumper optional).

The IOC4T contains four local relays that can be used for any specific alarm signal under software control.

For example, in a typical application, these relays can be used to signal an MPC4 fault or a problem detected by the common alarms (Sensor Normal, Alarm, and Hazard).

In addition, 32 digital signals representing alarms are transmitted to the rack backplane and can be used by the optional RLC16 Relay Card and/or IRC4 Intelligent Relay Card (with optional jumpers) mounted in the rack.

Application Information

The IOC4T, when paired with the MPC4 Machinery Protection Card, is ideally suited for machinery monitoring and protection in a variety of industrial applications.

Discrete Signal Interface (DSI) inputs

Control signals

– Alarm Reset (AR): A closed contact between the DSI AR and DSI RET inputs resets (clears) the MPC4/IOC4T card’s alarm to lockout.

NOTE: The alarm reset input (DSI AR) is edge sensitive and requires a high to low transition to activate the reset.

– Danger Bypass (DB) : A closed contact between the DSI DB and DSI RET inputs inhibits (bypasses) the Danger Relay output.

– Trip Multiplier (TM): The closed contact between the DSI TM and DSI RET inputs multiplies the alarm level by a scaling factor (configurable via software) for adaptive monitoring.

Principle of operation: Detects open or closed circuits on the inputs Alarm outputs

Alarm relays: 4 per IOC4T card.

The MPC4 card can drive the four local relays on the IOC4T card, as well as the relays on the RLC16 relay card and/or the IRC4 Smart Relay card via the Raw bus or open collector (OC) bus in the VM600 chassis.

See Relay Characteristics on page 4 for IOC4T card relay functions.

Description

AMC8 Card

The AMC8 is an analog monitoring card designed for use in the VM600 rack-mounted system in the Meggitt Vibrometer® product family for machinery monitoring and protection applications.

This versatile card is capable of measuring and monitoring up to eight analog signal inputs simultaneously.

The AMC8 card is available in two versions: a “standard” version and a “circuit independent” version, both of which are available as card pairs using the corresponding IOC8T input/output card.

The AMC8 card is mounted on the front of the VM600 rack (ABE04x or ABE056) and the IOC8T I/O card is mounted on the rear.

Both cards connect directly to the rack backplane via two connectors.

A pair of AMC8/IOC8T cards provides eight channels of temperature monitoring that accept resistance temperature detector (RTD) and thermocouple (TC) temperature inputs as well as process inputs.

The source and type of each channel is selectable during card configuration.

Cold Junction Compensation (CJC) sensor processing is used for the thermocouple temperature channel and can be used for two of the eight channels, also selectable during card configuration.

All inputs are conditioned and compared to user-configurable alarms that are defined through Meggitt’s VM600 MPSx software.

A pair of AMC8/IOC8T cards is configured (i.e. operated independently) via the RS-232 port on the front panel of the relevant AMC8 card.

The AMC8 card also provides access to the CPUx card (ABE04x only) in slot 0 of the VM600 rack via the VME bus.

These interfaces allow the operator to configure the VM600 card, access measurements, view detailed board status, upload firmware updates, and more.

The AMC8 card can drive the four local relays on the IOC8T card, as well as any of the 16 relays on the RLC16 card using the VM600 rack’s raw bus and/or open collector (OC) bus.

These cards also provide analog signal outputs based on current (0 to 25 mA). Voltage outputs are also supported.

Application Information
