July 2016Maintenance, Test & Measurement, Calibration
Instrotech has launched the Monitran MTN/5000-16, a robust and reliable microcontroller-based condition monitoring system. The system contains up to 16 Monitran g-mac signal conditioning units and features a 7 cm TFT touchscreen with an easy-to-navigate menu that enables users to set data sampling periods, ranges, accuracy levels and vibration threshold (alarm) levels, on a channel-by-channel basis or across all channels. In addition, the system has 20 digital I/O channels, enabling the MTN/5000-16 to be integrated with other systems.
Each g-mac unit within the MTN/5000-16 can accept any standard two-wire accelerometer and the data can be viewed and interpreted as acceleration or velocity. However, the g-macs can also be used with other transducer types and the MTN/5000-16’s software can, upon request, be written to display virtually any parameter (e.g. temperature, light or voltage).
Systems are made-to-order and customers can specify how many channels they require (1 to 16), the condition to be monitored by each channel and what levels of control they wish to have over each channel. Customers can also specify what power source the system should utilise and whether or not they want the system to do any direct switching for emergency shutdowns.
The MTN/5000-16 is initially available in a 350 x 250 x 200 mm cabinet, though other cabinet sizes may become available later in the year.
