measuring of vibration must be changed too. The A3600 system measure the machine even is OFF.
To stop of the measuring on the turned-off machine is possible to use binary (process) inputs, which
stops measuring only on the turned-off machine. On the working machines will be still measuring
performed. Binary inputs are possible to use for dynamic data measuring (measuring of time or
spectra) too. The dynamic data measuring considerably size of database. You can also use binary
inputs for measuring of dynamic data.
Other case is a load change on a machine. The load change on the machine usually causes speed
change and power change. If speed and power of machine is changed, then we want change the way
of measuring of vibration too. For measuring change is possible to use binary inputs. The A3600
system contains 4 binary inputs, so we can set 4 different setups of measuring. If the machine works
with greater load, then vibrations are greater too, but in this case greater vibrations don't mean a
machine failure. If alarm limit doesn't change, then the system A3600 can detect false alarm. You can
also use binary inputs to change of alarm limits.
The binary inputs of the Adash 3600-MAIN unit serve to identify the measured machine state (run
up, coast down, ...). The module A3600MAIN set the pre-defined measuring base on the state of
binary inputs.
Binary inputs are common terminals which are situated on the module A3600MAIN and which can be
connecting to the power supply. If voltage from the process control system (PLC) is used as power
supply, then process control system gets information about measured machine state to the A3600
system. A user control power supply can be used too. The binary inputs must be supply by DC voltage
in the range of 4 – 30 V, current 4 mA.
If binary inputs are connected to the power supply and if are defined their functions, then A3600MAIN
module tests voltage on the binary inputs (binary inputs are active or passive) and depend on the state
of binary inputs set the pre-defined measuring.
Note. The A3600 system doesn't measure voltage on the binary input.
Binary inputs can be used for:
- setting of different alarm limits
- start of measuring
- start of dynamic data measuring
How simply start
Module A3600-MAIN makes possible to scan up to 4 binary inputs. State of binary inputs is indicated
by LED on the front panel of A3600MAIN module.
To set binary inputs use the A3600Setup application.
Attention!!! Terms "binary inputs" and " process inputs" are synonyms, which name the same
terminal of the A3600MAIN module.
