Product Introduction
In heavy rotating machinery protection systems—such as steam turbines, gas turbines, compressors, and large industrial pumps—continuous vibration, shaft position, and speed monitoring are essential to prevent catastrophic mechanical failure. The Vibro-Meter VM600 IOC8T by Meggitt is a specialized rear-rack input/output card designed to work in tandem with front-panel processing modules like the MPC4 and AMC8.
Installed in the rear slot directly opposing the processing module, the IOC8T handles physical field wiring terminations. It conditions incoming raw transducer signals, supplies required excitation power to proximity probes and accelerometers, and routes conditioned analog 4–20 mA telemetry and buffered raw AC signals to plant Distributed Control Systems (DCS) and diagnostic recorders.
