The speed measurement and

overspeed protection systems

DOPS and DOPS AS serve the

measurement of speeds and the

protection of inadmissible

overspeeds at rotating machines.

The DOPS systems in combination

with safety shut-off valves

are suitable to replace older

mechanical overspeed protection

systems.

With the consistent three channel

design, starting with the signal

detection via signal processing up

to the evaluation of the measured

speed, the system offers the

maximum safety for the machines

to be monitored.

Safety relevant limit values (e.g.

overspeed limits) are submitted to

the post-connected fail-safe

technique.

Thus it can be ensured that beside

operational safety, the protection

function on a high level standard is

met as well.

The integrated peak value memory

permits reading out the maximum

speed value that has occurred

before the machine was switched

off. This function provides important

information for evaluating the

mechanical machine load caused

by the overspeed.

Alarm outputs and error

messages are output as potentialfree

relay outputs and as shortcircuit

proof +24 V voltage outputs.

The alarm outputs, combined in 2

out of 3 logic, are also available as

potential free relay contacts.

The system includes an extended

fault detection function. The three

speed sensors are continuously

checked on operating within the

permitted limits.

Moreover, the channels mutually

check and supervise the output

signals of each other. If the internal

fault detection circuit detects an error,

this will be indicated via the output

contacts and shown on the display as

plaintext.

By means of the the PROFIBUS DP

interface the recorded data can be

passed on to host computers.

By using prefabricated connection

cables and screw terminals, the

systems may be integrated

economically in 19“ cabinets.

For the measurement of speed and

for the protection from overspeeds,

epro offers three system variants.

System DOPS

This system offers a maximum in

functionality and is certified

according to SIL3 – DIN EN 61508

in combination with epro MMS

eddy current measuring chains. It

requires the following components:

- 3 x monitor MMS 6350 (/DP)

(incl. firmware applic. no. 0)

Profibus-interface (optional)

or alternatively

- 3 x monitor MMS 6350D (/DP)

(incl. firmware applic. no. 0)

with speed display

Profibus-interface (optional)

In addition:

- 1 x Backplane MMS 6351/00

- 1 x 19“ frame MMS 6352

- 6 x screw terminals MMS 6361

- 6 x cable 0.5 m MMS 6362

alternatively

cable 3 m MMS 6360

- 1 configuration kit MMS 6950

- 3 x blind plate BLE 008, for the

installation of monitors without

display

When using this system line, there

are additional combinations

available via relay outputs beside

the normal outputs of the alarms

OUT1....OUT6 and the system

supervision Channel Clear:

2 v 3 combination output OUT1

2 v 3 combination output OUT2

2 v 3 combination output OUT3

2 v 3 combination Channel Clear

System DOPS AS

This system offers a special

functionality for Astom applications

and is certified according to SIL3 –

DIN EN 61508 in combination with

epro MMS eddy-current measuring

chains. This system line requires

the following components:

- 3 x monitor MMS 6350 (/DP)

(incl. firmware appl. no. 2)

Profibus interface: (optional)

alternatively

- 3 x monitor MMS 6350D (/DP)

(incl. firmware appl. no. 2)

with speed display

Profibus interface (optional)

In addition:

- 1 x Backplane MMS 6351/10

- 1 x 19“ frame MMS 6352

- 6 x screw terminal MMS 6361

- 6 x cable 0.5 m MMS 6362

System DOPS TS

This system line is used to replace

AEG-Turloop systems.

For the redesign on this system, the

speed monitors MMG 1222 TS are

removed from the slots and

replaced by MMS 6350+MMS 6353

each.

The old, existent Turloop frame

remains in the rack, it is not

necessary to change the wiring.

The following components are

required:

- 3 x monitor MMS 6350 (incl.

firmware appl. no. 1)

In addition:

3 x adapter MMS 6353 TS

- 1 configuration kit MMS 6950

- 1 set of blind plates MMS 6354

The DOPS TS system replaces

the functions of the old Turloop

system. With this system line not

all functions of DOPS or DOPS

AS are at disposal.

The DOPS TS system is not

certified according to SIL3, DIN

EN 61508.

The Profibus-interface is not

available for system line DOPS

TS.

Module supervision

Sensor supervision

All three DOPS system lines offer the

same extensive system supervision

functions.

Reasons for module disturbances

can be read out in detail via the

communication interface or, at

modules with a display, directly on

the display.

This permits the technicians to

recognize the reason for the fault

immediately.

During the change from the error to

the ok-state and after power-on of the

module, all functions of the module

are blocked for a delay time of 5 sec.

Depending on the backplane used

or the installed firmware, the

indication of faults or overspeeds is

made via function-outputs and beside

this via relay outputs with 2 out of 3

combinations of the alarm outputs.

The systems DOPS and DOPS AS

offer the following supervision

functions:

Pulse comparison

Analog comparison

Gap supervision

(Not for DOPS TS)

Sensor supervision:

(Short-circuit, interruption)

Sensor signal level

Sensor supply current

System supply voltages

System Watch-Dog

Internal temperature
