Meggitt Vibro-Meter VibroSmart® VSI010 600-010 Communications Interface Module

The VibroSmart® VSI010 communications interface module is a communications module for use with other modules in a VibroSmart distributed monitoring system. This VSI010 supports up to two fieldbus channels and allows the data from the other modules in a measurement block to be read by fieldbus master devices, that is, the VSI010 acts as a data communications bridge.

The VSI010 module acts as a fieldbus slave device in order to share this data with third-party systems such as a DCS or PLC over one of the many types of industrial fieldbuses supported.

FeaturesUp to 2 serial fieldbus interfaces (Modbus RTU or PROFIBUS DP) or 1 Ethernet fieldbus interface (Modbus TCP)PROFIsafe safety layer to ensure more reliable PROFIBUS communicationsActs as a data communications bridge between VSV30x modules and third-party systems such as a DCS or PLC over industry standard fieldbuses8 basic and 4 advanced logic functions to combine alarm and status information from VibroSmart modules in the same measurement blockTwo VSI010 modules can be used in the same measurement block to support redundant operations
