Online condition monitoring with fieldbus interface
2018-06-13 08:40:02, ifm electronic GmbHThe VSE150 is a 6-channel diagnostic system for the evaluation of four dynamic signals (e.g. acceleration) and two analog inputs. The new VSE15x family offers various fieldbus interfaces for data exchange with a PLC. Measured values can thus be displayed directly in the control system and monitoring can be perfectly adapted to the operating states and processes of the machine. For time-critical alarms, 2 fast digital switching outputs (response time ≤1 ms) are available in addition to the fieldbus.
Cost savings due to reduced wiring effort
The direct connection to the PLC via the fieldbus allows auxiliary variables (e.g. speed, triggers for operating states) and non-time-critical alarms of the state monitoring to be exchanged via the bus. This not only saves time during wiring but also the provision of the corresponding inputs / outputs at the PLC.
