Description

The 1900/65A General Purpose Equipment Monitor is  designed to continuously monitor and protect equipment that is used in a variety of applications and industries.  The monitor’s low cost makes it an ideal solution for general purpose machines and processes that can benefit from continuous monitoring and protection.

Inputs

The 1900/65A provides four transducer inputs and four temperature inputs.  Software can configure each transducer input to support 2- and 3-wire accelerometers, velocity sensors or proximity sensors.  Each temperature input supports Type E, J, K, and T thermocouples, and 2- or 3-wire RTDs.

Outputs

The 1900/65A provides six relay outputs, four 4-20 mA recorder outputs, and a dedicated buffered output.  The user can use the 1900 Configuration software to configure the relay contacts to open or close according to the OK, Alert and

Danger statuses of any channel or combination of channels, and to provide data from any variable from any channel on any recorder output.  The dedicated buffer output can provide the signal for each transducer input.

A Modbus Gateway option allows the monitor to provide static variables, statuses, event list, time and date information directly to any Modbus client, including Distributed Control Systems (DCSs), Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) systems, Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs), or System 1 software.  The monitor uses an internal counter and a Modbus client/master time reference to generate time and date information.  Users can upgrade monitors without the Modbus Gateway by ordering the 1900/01 Communications Upgrade (see the Ordering Information section).  The 1900/65A supports Modbus communications via Ethernet and a software-configurable RS232/485 serial port.

Configuration

The user defines monitor operation and the Modbus Gateway register map by using

software running on a laptop or PC to create a configuration file and download the file to the monitor through the built-in Ethernet connection.  The 1900/65A permanently stores configuration information in non-volatile memory, and can upload this information to the PC for changes.

Display Module

The 1900/65A supports an optional display/keypad to view channel information or

make minor configuration changes. This allows the 1900/65A to operate as a stand-alone package.  If desired, the user can mount the display up to 75 metres (250 feet) from the Monitor Module.

Inputs

Transducer Inputs

Users can configure Channels 1 through 4 to accept input from acceleration, velocity or displacement transducers.

Transducer Channel Types

Channel Types define the functionality for processing that will be applied to an input signal and the kind of variables or measurement values that will be derived from this input.  Channel Types also define the kind of sensor that must be used.  Transducer Channel Types include:

Acceleration or Reciprocating Acceleration

Velocity or Reciprocating Velocity

Radial Vibration (shaft vibration)

Thrust (shaft axial displacement)

Hazardous Area Approvals

This monitor is not certified for installation in Class 1 Div 1 locations, but it will support transducers installed in Div 1 locations via the use of galvanic isolators and barriers. If galvanic isolators are used, no change is necessary to the installation. A removable ground jumper allows the monitor to support zener barrier installations. Removing the jumper will disconnect circuit common from chassis at the monitor so that chassis can be connected at the barrier.

Special Considerations

Hazardous area installations require relay contact voltages below 30 Vac rms, or 30 Vdc to minimize hazard.Hazardous area installations require relay contact amperages  below 5 Amps DC, or AC to minimize hazard
