The VMDS II is an advanced digital, software configurable, modular system using the latest proven technology. The VMDS II is the successor of the VMDS I protection system. It is designed following the requests of customers, the experience of CIS AMREIN in the field of machine protection systems and according industrial standards.
The VMDS II provides common signal interfaces for the full range of standard sensors and signal interfaces to CIS AMREIN specific transducers. All sensor interfaces provide individual sensor power and sensor fault monitoring circuits for each channel.
The VMDS II provides comprehensive alarm types, alarm logic functions and machine shutdown capabilities. Individual and common relays are available. Individual relays are assigned to each monitoring module without loosing monitoring slots in the rack.
The VMDS II provides a complete range of analog signal inputs and outputs to cover also schemes in renovation projects where various analog inputs and outputs are required.
The VMDS II interfaces with DCS and PLC units for plant wide system integration with industrial Ethernet, fieldbus or serial host communication interfaces (eg. Modbus TCP/IP, Modbus RTU).
