In addition, AMETEK has the industry’s most extensive line of control room annunciators, event monitors, and graphic displays.
OIL AND PETROCHEMICAL
AMETEK Power Instruments is a leader in the development and manufacturing of sensor systems for boilers and burners used by the utility, petrochemical, process, and marine industries worldwide.
AMETEK Power Instruments’ pressure transducers and transmitters are used in oil, gas and petrochemical production and distribution to operate reliably under harsh and extreme conditions. AMETEK also offers a full line of flame sensors for a wide range of industrial applications as well as custom-engineered electrical thermocouples and fiber-optic cable assembles.
All of your alarms can include time stamp, synchronized by IRIG-B or our internal clock. This can be presented through Modbus, DNP, OPC or to a local printer or terminal for viewing. Dual ports (serial and Ethernet) can be provided for simultaneous connections to different devices.
The Model AN-6150 is a compact, cellular display unit which allows a wide variety of customer configurations. Any combination of four standard window sizes can be accommodated in each cell. These cells can be configured in any matrix up to 6 high and 6 wide. The single module is designed to DIN 2.84″ x 5.67″ standard.
The Platinum 2.5K Portable Multi-Function Recorder is packaged in a rugged case with quick connect interfaces for fast and simple field connection. Interface cables are provided with shrouded banana jacks that couple easily with a variety of measurement CT’s and voltage scaling devices offering complete flexibility for power utility and industrial use. The Platinum 2.5K Portable Multi-Function Recorder utilizes a 40GB solid state drive that eliminates the need for a mechanical hard drive and stores over 1,000 fault and disturbance records at once.
The JEMStar II has the highest accuracy in the market, provides many communication options and monitors your power quality to make it the ideal choice for any metering application. An impressive colour display makes it easy to view power measurements, phasor displays and meter diagnostics. The JEMStar II is easy to use and configure with our intuitive JEMWARE software and the meter display provides a user menu to show and edit configuration details.
The P&QR performs several functions in one:
A dedicated sequence of events recorder system ensures that all alarms are processed with the same 1 msec resolution, no matter how large or small the event is. These recorders are widely used in power utilities and high speed industrial applications that rely on precise control. A wide variety of input termination and output options allow easy integration into any application.
Each SERNET product can work as a stand-alone system monitoring up to 48 digital inputs or multiple SERNET units can be networked together to form a larger system with all events consolidated in one chronological list as they occur. A single WEB browser screen can display alarms from several SERNET units, making it easy to see the interaction between different equipment types or processes. This flexibility makes it easy to analyze alarms across an entire site or even across multiple sites for a larger system view – much better than piecing together a list of alarms from multiple devices.
