Metrix Digital Proximity System (DPS)

February 22, 2022 | Product News

New Screw Terminals & 5 Day Lead Times!

 

Special Features Include:

Crosstalk Elimination – This feature shifts the oscillation frequency of the DPS unit so it is different from the adjacent probe, thereby, preventing Cross Talk interference.

TightView™ for Limited Clearances – Metrix produces a proximity probe system that operates where counterbores, reduced side-view and smaller targets would limit the use of a standard system, all while maintaining excellent linear measurement.

Configurable Spike Suppression – This feature is used to inhibit high amplitude electrical noise from outside the vibration monitoring system from impacting the performance of the vibration transmitter system.

Metrix has 5-day lead times with our Proximity Probes, Extension Cables and Drivers or Transmitters. Metrix MX8030 probes, MX8031 cables and MX2033 drivers are compatible and interchangeable with the BN 3300 XL system, while maintaining API 670 compliance. This is true compatibility!

There are now new screw terminals available for our MX2033 Driver and MX2034 Transmitter.

Why choose the REGARD 3000?

February 17, 2022 | Product News

Monitor various gases and vapours with the modular Dräger REGARD® 3000 control system. Its multi-coloured status light signals the status of your gas detection system. The controller allows you to combine three different modules: Input, Relay and Gateway module. You can connect up to four analogue transmitters and eight relays in combination.

Especially well visible and audible from a distance

In the event of an alarm, every second counts – but it is also useful to be able to see the status of the gas detection system at a glance. The Dräger REGARD 3000 makes this possible with its status light. Different colours clearly indicate whether everything is in order (blue), whether there are malfunctions (yellow) or whether alarms are pending (red). In addition, it can be seen immediately whether the alarm is active (flashing red) or has been acknowledged (continuous red light). This way, everyone on site is informed about the system status and daily checks are also made easier. The integrated horn and the SIL2-capable contacts of the REGARD 3000 provide even more safety.

Access the gas warning system more centrally

Often gas transmitters are installed in areas that are difficult to access or are far away from each other and the associated control unit. The REGARD 3000’s 4 – 20 mA HART® input module gives you central access to all diagnostic information in the event of an alarm or fault. The transmitter configurations can also be read out and transferred conveniently in this way. The intuitive touch display gives you an overview of the status of your gas detection system at all times.

Flexible options for expansion

If the range of functions or the size of the gas detection system changes: The REGARD 3000 can be expanded by an additional relay or gateway module, depending on the requirements. This way, the system remains flexible and grows with the plant without having to shut down the production process for a longer period of time. A REGARD 3000 can be equipped with a maximum of one input module, one relay module and one gateway module.

Networking individual systems with each other

Do you have several gas detection systems with REGARD 3000 and REGARD 7000? You would like to have all systems in view and control and configure them centrally? Then connect the REGARD 7000 as client to the REGARD 3000 systems via an Ethernet cable connection. Networked in this way, the client can detect, control and configure the REGARD 3000 units as satellites.

Flexible options for mounting

You already have a control cabinet or control station for your production process control system and would like to integrate the gas warning system there? Or you need a small gas detection system that can be easily integrated into your building? With the Dräger REGARD 3000, you have the option of integrating the docking station directly into a control cabinet and mounting the operating unit (display module) in the control cabinet door. Or you can use the smart, compact wall-mounted housing. You can choose between the colours telegrey and black.

Metrix 5580 and SW5580 Reciprocating Compressors

February 4, 2022 | Product News

Metrix is the biggest supplier of monitoring systems for non-API618 Reciprocating Compressors in the world. Their suite of vibration sensors includes the ST5485E Velocity Transmitters monitoring Crankcase vibration, the IT6810 Transmitters monitoring Impact at the Crossheads and the MX2034 Proximity Transmitters monitoring average Rod Position at each of the piston rods. This sensor suite continues to serve customers well.

With the new 5580 Signal Conditioner and the SW5580 Switch, Metrix provides a modular and field configurable device that is perfect for monitoring Reciprocating Compressors efficiently and economically. You can expand the system on a throw-by-throw basis. Benefits include two channels able to measure Vibration Velocity at each end of the Crankcase, Acceleration and Impact on the Crosshead, and Rod Drop and Rod Vibration at the Piston Rod.

The only difference between the 5580 Signal Conditioner and the SW5580 Switch is the switch has two relays on each channel, either Solid State of Electromechnical contacts.

Watch the newly released 5580 and SW5580 Recip Animation to learn more about theses innovative applications.
