Vibration Meter VM600 Mk2

The Vibrometer VM600Mk2 is an advanced vibration monitoring and protection system for complex and critical rotating machinery.

Its high channel density and fully configurable 19” card structure make it suitable for complex installations and large (critical) machinery.

Benefits

Modular System Architecture

The efficient 19-inch modular card structure allows the creation of application-specific monitoring, protection or combination systems.

SIL-certified protection

The VM600Mk2 protection card is designed to meet the vibration protection requirements of SIL 2 certification, making the system suitable for protecting the most critical rotating machinery.

Centralized architecture

Its centralized architecture allows for high channel density, making the VM600Mk2 excellent at providing advanced vibration protection and monitoring for large (critical) machinery.

“State-of-the-art vibration protection and monitoring system for critical rotating machinery”

Design

The Vibrometer VM600Mk2 is designed to provide state-of-the-art vibration monitoring and protection (SIL 2), especially for large critical rotating machinery with high channel counts.

Its modular 19-inch card allows the user to build a system to suit specific application requirements.

In addition, the system can be integrated with VibroSight software, which provides detailed insight into the condition of rotating machinery and a wide range of analysis options.

Applications

The VM600Mk2 is suitable for plants where rotating machinery is concentrated in one area, requiring centralized monitoring and a high channel count.

Typical applications include:

■ Gas turbines

■ Steam turbines

■ Water turbines

Other critical rotating machinery

Features

System isolation

The VM600Mk2 uses a single type of card (MPC4Mk2) for monitoring and condition monitoring.

However, these functions are tightly segregated to ensure API 670 compliance and reduce costs.

A separate (optional) XMV16 condition monitoring card is available for applications with a large number of channels.

High channel density

The standalone VM600Mk2 protection card has 4 input channels, but each VM600 can be expanded to a maximum of 48 input channels Mk2 racks, allowing vibration protection to be extended to the most demanding rotating machinery.

Advanced Monitoring

The stand-alone VM600Mk2 condition monitoring card offers 16 dynamic channels and 4 tachometer channels, which can all be independently configured to provide unrivaled accuracy and reliability.
