The VM600 system racks are used to house hardware for the VM600 series of machinery
protection systems and condition monitoring systems, from Meggitt Sensing Systems’ Vibro-Meter ®
product line.
Two types of rack are available: the ABE040 and the ABE042. These are very similar, differing only in the position of the mounting brackets. Both racks have a standard height of 6U and provide mounting space (slots) for up to 15 single-width VM600 series cards, or a combination of single-width and multiple-width cards. The racks are particularly suitable for industrial environments, where equipment must be permanently installed in 19″ cabinets or panels. The rack has an integrated VME backplane which provides the electrical interconnections between the installed VM600 cards: power supply, signal

processing, data acquisition, input /output, CPU and relay. It also includes a power supply check relay,
available at the rear of the rack, which indicates that the installed power supplies are operating normally. One or two RPS6U power supplies can be installed in a VM600 system rack. A rack can have two RPS6U units installed for different reasons: to supply power to a rack with many cards installed, non-redundantly, or to supply power to a rack with fewer cards installed, redundantly.
When a VM600 system rack is operating with two RPS6U units for power supply redundancy, if one
RPS6U fails, the other will provide 100% of the power requirement and the rack will continue to operate.
