Turbine Supervisory Instrumentation
For a solution that includes both protection and monitoring of your critical turbo machinery, Rockwell Automation's proven hardware, software and services include everything you need to be successful.
Condition Monitoring
Protection Systems
When your application requires a condition monitoring and protection solution that provides superior machine reliability, an online, continuous protection is your best choice.
The Allen-Bradley® XM® series of intelligent I/O modules can process in real-time the critical parameters used in assessing the current health, and predicting the future health of industrial machinery — providing machinery protection where needed, and reducing downtime.
Additionally, maintenance departments can utilize the information provided by the XM series to develop optimized maintenance schedules based upon the actual or predicted condition of the assets instead of relying only on manufactures recommended Predictive Maintenance (PdM) intervals. Predictive Maintenance is a well-proven strategy that can significantly reduce maintenance costs and improve MRO spares management.
Integrated, open or standalone, the XM series of Intelligent I/O Modules provides a proven, reliable and cost-effective solution for all of your monitoring requirements. The XM series includes the following modules:
- XM-120 & 121 Dynamic Measurement Modules
The
XM-120 (Standard) and the
XM-121 (Low Frequency) Dynamic Measurement Modules are intelligent 2 channel general-purpose monitors that support measurements of dynamic inputs such as vibration, pressure and strain.
- XM-120E Eccentricity Module
The
XM-120E provides four key measurements including the peak-to-peak eccentricity value, the instantaneous gap value and the minimum and maximum observed gap values.
