RTK Instruments System 9000TS Sequence of Events Recorder

Product catalog summary
Overview: The System 9000TS is a Sequence of Events Recorder and Annunciator designed for industrial environments. It features a modular, rack-mounted design that can expand to over 4000 inputs, with 1ms time-stamping and storage for up to 15,000 events per rack in non-volatile memory.
Key Features:
  • Event Recording: Offers 1ms resolution time-stamping for digital event changes.
  • Alarm Management: Integrated alarm annunciator with auto-shelving to reduce nuisance alarms.
  • Configurability: Programmable via Windows-based software, allowing easy configuration of input/output channels.
  • Interfacing: Includes Modbus RS485 serial interface, with options for Ethernet and protocol converters for third-party integration.
  • Event Storage: Distributed storage retains up to 15,000 events per rack even after power failures.
  • Expandability: Modular design allows for easy expansion with additional racks and cards.
Technical Specifications:
  • Construction: Standard 3U 19" Euroracks with rear access terminals.
  • Power Supply: Operates on a 24V DC supply, with a range of 19-36V DC.
  • Relay Outputs: Configurable relays for various functions, with options for individual repeat relay outputs.
  • Displays: Compatible with various display types, including lamp arrays and mimic diagrams.
Benefits:
  • Safety and Compliance: Enhances safety and compliance with accurate event and alarm management.
  • System Reliability: Non-volatile memory and absence of moving parts ensure high reliability.
  • Flexibility: Tailorable to specific applications with a wide range of configuration options.
Applications: Suitable for automated control and protection systems, interfacing with PLCs, SCADA, and other plant-wide control systems.
Displays: The System 9000TS supports hazardous area displays using certified interface devices like the DF30IS and L20 Intrinsically Safe Multiplexer. IP65 displays offer environmental protection with bright LED modules. Mimic displays use mosaic tiles for flexible overview displays.
Alarm Management Software: Supports screen-based systems with customizable display screens, touch screens, dual redundant servers, and industrial computers.
Alarm Annunciator System: Functions as an Alarm Annunciator with repeat relays, reflash facilities, and a multiplexer system for efficient cable management.
Sleep Mode: Disables lamp and audible outputs while maintaining alarm monitoring in unmanned situations.
First Up: Identifies the first alarm with sequences matching ISA standard S18-1 1979.
Advanced Annunciator Features: Configurable alarm channels according to ISA publication S18.1 1979, with no power interruption needed for changes.
Installation and Mechanical Details: Supports local and remote annunciation, networked displays, and optional PLC integration. Based on a standard eurorack for system expansion.
Technical Specification:
  • Inputs: Opto-isolated alarm contacts, configurable for different voltages and contact types.
  • Outputs: Lamp drive and standard relays with configurable contact ratings.
  • Synchronization: Via pulse, IRIG-B, or GPS signal.
  • General: Operates on 24VDC with EMC and LVD compliance, suitable for a wide range of environmental conditions.

Nuisance Alarms Interface Card Each alarm can be set to automatically inhibit (shelve) if the alarm frequency exceeds configured parameters and are therefore considered invalid. Alarms are automatically re-instated once they return to normal patterns. Each system is supplied with an Interface Card. Customer connections for remote printing and programming are provided on the front of this card.Configurable system relay outputs andthe RS485 serial output are available on the rear of the associated chassis. Once configured, settings are stored on EEPROM on the individual cards.In addition, the Interface...

Complete Systems RTK can provide the System 9000TS mounted in a wall mounted or floor standing cabinet and provide all the necessary wiring to the displays, PSUs and terminals ready for final installation on site. These panels are quoted against each specific customer requirement; please contact the Sales Office for further details. Timers Delay timers can be incorporated into the System 9000TS on both the inputs and the outputs. This facility can avoid the possibility of nuisance alarms by setting an input time delay from 1ms to 65,000ms. Using this setting the alarm contact must be in alarm...
