Vibro-Meter VM600 MPC4 (200-510-017-017) Machinery Protection Card

The Vibro-Meter VM600 MPC4 (200-510-017-017) is a high-performance machinery protection processing card belonging to Meggitt VM600 monitoring system. It supports 4 dynamic signal channels and 2 speed/phase reference channels to collect vibration, displacement and rotational speed signals from proximity probes, accelerometers and tachometers.

This DSP-based module executes real-time signal analysis, alarm threshold judgment and protection logic. It works cooperatively with IOC4T I/O cards to output analog and relay signals, meeting API 670 standards for critical rotating machinery protection in power, oil & gas and petrochemical industries.
