Microcontroller-based condition monitoring system

February 2015 Data Acquisition & Telemetry

Instrotech has announced the launch of UK-based Monitran’s MTN/5000, a cost-effective and versatile microcontroller-based condition monitoring system for application in vibration monitoring and logging of any sensor-based design, for example temperature, pressure, voltage/current/power.

The MTN/5000 is housed in an extruded aluminium enclosure and features a 90 mm TFT touch screen with a high performance ARM Cortex-M3 processor. It has an easy-to-navigate menu that enables users to set data sampling periods up to 1 million/second, ranges and accuracy levels plus vibration threshold (alarm) levels on a channel-by-channel basis or across all 12 channels. In addition, the system has 12 digital I/O channels that can be used for multiple alarms or a communication channel for integration with other systems.

As an optional extra, the system can be fitted with Modbus TCP/IP, for networking purposes or to enable multiple MTN/5000s to operate together within a larger monitoring or control system.

The MTN/5000 system is made to order and, in addition to specifying how many input channels the MTN/5000 should have, the user can request front panel customisation, such as asset numbering. The system requires an input voltage of 24 VDC and the enclosure dimensions, including glands are 372 x 250 x 200 mm.

The new MTN/5000 is now in full production with a current lead time of 4-5 weeks, however this will be longer if optional extras are required.
