System Interface Module
Each Orbit 60 system requires a single System Interface Module (SIM) The SIM
provides the user access to manage protection configuration, local display,system-level diagnostics, system LEDs, system contacts, and the system protection
fault relay. The SIM occupies one slot and must be adjacent to the Power Input
Module (PIM) in the chassis.
The SIM is the access point for configuring and maintaining the system. The module
communicates to the Orbit Studio configuration software and transmits theconfiguration to other modules in the system. The SIM provides a physical accesssecurity feature through a key-lock switch on the public side and a contact on theutility side of the SIM. Either of these controls can be used to secure the system
configuration, preventing unauthorized changes.
The SIM has three independently configurable Ethernet ports. Each port can be used
for system configuration, system time synchronization, temporary troubleshooting,or an external display.
For additional details, see the System Interface Module Datasheet (142M9054).

Communication Gateway Module
The Communication Gateway Module (CGW) provides information to external
hosts including measurements, alarms, statuses, and system controls using
standard industrial protocols. The CGW is designed for integration with processcontrol and other automation systems.
The Communication Gateway module occupies a single slot and has two RJ-45
Ethernet ports supporting Modbus and EGD protocols.
The Comm Gateway Module includes two Ethernet ports which provide TCP/IP
communications capabilities. The supported industrial protocols are:ll

Modbus TCP/IP: Modbus over Ethernet is available for connection to HMI’s, unit
control systems, or other plant automation equipment. The module can only be
configured as a server and supports configurable Modbus addresses within the40000 address range.
Ethernet Global Data (EGD): EGD is a GE protocol used on Mark VI and Mark Vie
controllers and by GE Programmable Automation Controllers and certain 3rdparty automation equipment. Version 3.04 and backward compatibility withprevious versions is supported.
For additional details, see the Communication Gateway Module Datasheet(137M0700).

Protection Processing Module
The Protection Processing Module (PPM) serves as the computational engine for
the Orbit 60 monitoring system. It extracts all machinery measurements for theprotection system and performs alarm determinations. The PPM analyzes signals
from transducers, generates measurements and statuses and publishes them toother modules for data collection and external communication. Each PPM
occupies a single slot within the system.
Each PPM provides computational capacity for a large number of sensors andcan support typical monitored machine trains. The PPM capacity is a function of
the type of processing required on each input. If the system requires more
processing than a single PPM can provide, additional PPMs can be added to thesystem for complex monitoring deployments. For protection systems, redundant
PPMs are recommended.
The Orbit Studio Configuration Software provides a System Utilization Calculator
to evaluate the remaining capacity of the PPMs in your system. If a PPM
processing capacity reaches 90%, a warning indicator is displayed in Orbit Studiosoftware, and it is recommended to add another PPM or two PPMs if the system isredundant.
For additional details, see the Protection Processing Module Datasheet(142M8515).

Condition Monitoring Module
The Condition Monitoring Module (CMM) listens to all information
within the system, including all measurements, waveforms, digitaltransducer signals, system controls, status information, system
configuration information, process data from external systems, andalarm and events logs. It only listens, with no capability to write,allowing interface to System 1 over the business networks, with norisk to the protection system.
Each module occupies two slots within the system. Placing multiple
CMM modules allows the connection of two independent System 1
clients to the Orbit 60 System. Data is transferred to System 1
continuously, but in the event the connection is lost, non-volatilestorage buffers historical data until the information is off-loaded tothe host software. System 1 can configure the CMM module toextract additional measurements and waveforms from systemsensor data. Without System 1, the customer can use the CMM
module to collect data to diagnose machinery issues when an
alarm event occurs in the hardware.
For additional details, see the Condition Monitoring Module
Datasheet (145M9028).

ORBIT 60 SERIES System Overview

Power Input Module
The Power Input Modules (PIM) always reside in a special-purposed slot located in thefirst slot of the chassis. This slot accommodates two PIMs for redundancy. At least one
PIM must power every chassis, and every chassis requires its own PIMs and powersources. Redundant PIMs and power sources are strongly recommended.
The PIM is a half-height module that connects an external power source to the system.
Each Orbit 60 Series chassis supports two stacked redundant power input modules.
Failure of one power source does not affect the operation if the system uses both power
inputs. The PIM employs out-of-range protection for miswiring, overvoltage, andovercurrent protection for the input power sources.
The PIMs support input voltages ranging from +21 Vdc to +32 Vdc. The most common
power source comes from external DIN rail mounted AC/DC +24 Vdc output power
supplies. The Instrument Common(IS) and Protective Earth connections for thesystem are made at the utility side of the PIM. External redundant power supplies arerecommended for the system.
Removal and insertion of a single Power Input Module is supported without disrupting
system operation, as long as the other PIM remains installed and connected to its input
power source.
Note: The markings on the above image are for illustrative purposes only. The markings
on your PIM may vary depending on its version.
For additional details, see the Power Input Module Datasheet (163M5233).
For detailed information on required Power Supply, see associated datasheet (142M8947).

Bridge Module (BRG)
The Bridge Module (BRG) allows for additional chassis to be connected together
and form a single Orbit 60 system. All information provided by all modules in all
chassis is communicated through the bridge modules and their connections. A
maximum of two chassis can be bridged together. Even though a single system
can be made up of multiple chassis when using the Bridge Module, bandwidthand processing power limitations are not increased. More modules and channels
can exist in a single system physically but the same limit on maximum supported
measurements and channels is imposed.
The Fiber Bridge Module allows for a maximum distance between chassis of 2000
meters and uses a single mode, OS1 or OS2 fiber cable connection. A total of 6dBof attenuation can exist between the ends of the fiber connection, which allows
for multiple patch panel connections and fiber repairs to be made without animpact to system communication.

Figure 2: SFP and LC-Type Termination
The links between bridge modules are electrically isolated. This reduces the chance that groundloops between separate chassis are formed. When used for Marshalling cabinets, this also reduces
the chance that ground loops between the field wiring and the main system are formed.
Power is not transmitted over the bridge connections. Therefore, each chassis must have its own
power supply.
There are no limitations on where different types of modules may be installed in bridged systems. For
systems offering protection, bridge modules and their connections are included in the protection
path and any faults on them result in the Protection Fault Relay on the SIM being tripped.
Redundant bridging is supported if a second bridge module is installed in each chassis. Failure on
one bridge module or the connection between modules will force an automatic transition to theredundant pair of bridges to continue communication.

Each Bridge module occupies a single slot. The module OK LEDs indicate proper module function, andthe LINK LEDs indicate a good system communication. The unique Bridge LED indicates the status of
the bridge-to-bridge communication link. The bridge-to-bridge communication link is represented
as a channel on the module and can be viewed in the bar graph view.

Dynamic Input Modules
The primary purpose of the Dynamic Input module is to digitize the sensor
signal at a rate that completely encompasses the signal content and provides
transducer power for various sensors. The Orbit 60 Series Dynamic Input
modules are a set of 4-channel input modules available in both negative andpositive dynamic input options. The inputs are also used for speed orKeyphasor signals.
The PAV, PAS, PAA, PAD and PVT modules can be configured with up to
TWO SPEED CHANNELS with a maximum speed of 12,000 rpm andmaximum speed impulse rate of 12,000 cpm (200 Hz). For more than
two speed channels on a single dynamic input card, speeds greaterthan 12,000 rpm or speed impulse frequencies greater than 12,000
cpm (200 Hz) a KPH Module is needed.
The Orbit 60 dynamic input modules are designed for use on a broad range ofmachine trains or individual casings where the sensor point count fits themonitor’s channel count and where advanced signal processing is desired.
The modules are optimized for intensive signal processing required oncomplex machinery such as gearboxes, planetary gearboxes, reciprocating
compressors, and roller element bearing (REB) machines as well as offering
advanced measurement capabilities on conventional monitoring methods
such as radial vibration, thrust position, piston rod monitoring, and casing
absolute vibration.

Negative Transducer Input Modules
The following cards work with negative-voltage external sensors offering four variants:

Positive Transducer Input Module
The Positive Voltage Transducer (PVT) input module interfaces with industry-standard third-party
IEPE sensors, as well as sensors that use a 3-wire (power, common, signal) or a custom 2-wire (A/+and B/-) positive-voltage interface.
The PVT is the preferred module to use for IEPE sensors, including the Bently Nevada Velomitor(3005xx) and IEPE accelerometers. Using the PVT modules for these sensors improves noise
performance of the sensor.
l

PVT Positive Dynamic Sampler (Prox, Accel, Velom)

The PVT module is recommended for new Velomitor installations only. Projects using the 190501
Velomitor CT or retrofits that reuse other existing Velomitor sensors should use the PAV module unlessthe user can verify the sensor power limits are appropriate for existing Velomitors.

Keyphasor Input Module
Unlike previous systems, the Orbit 60 Series system supports Keyphasor
configurations for any dynamic input channel through the PAV, PAS, PAA, PAD, and
PVT input modules. For high-phase accuracy applications (over 12,000 rpm) theKeyphasor Input Module must be used. The input speed limit is 120,000 rpm andcan accept input speed signals up to 1,200,000 cpm (20 kHz). Each Keyphasor
Input Module can accept up to four speed inputs. Input configurations to thismodule can also support Acceleration, Differential Expansion, Radial Vibration,
and Thrust inputs. The Keyphasor input Module occupies a single slot.
Although the system allows the user to configure channels on theKeyphasor Input Module to serve as non-speed input types as describedabove, there will be a decrease in accuracy on these measurements
when compared to PAV, PAS, PAA, PAD, and PVT modules. These nonspeed inputs also cannot be utilized in SIL applications. The Keyphasor
Input Module can only be utilized in SIL applications when configured forspeed inputs.
Any channel on the module can be configured as a once-per-turn Keyphasor ora multiple-event-per-turn speed signal from a rotating shaft or gear used toprovide a precision timing measurement. The Keyphasor Input Module works withthe following transducers:lllMagnetic pickup
3-wire Prox
3-wire Accel

The 2-wire input connection provides a galvanically isolated, hi-impedance input which primarily
supports magnetic pick-up speed sensors. The isolated input eliminates potential ground loops thatcan occur when speed sensors are shared between the vibration system and other instrumentation.
The Keyphasor Input Module provides a buffered transducer output for each channel. Within Orbit
Studio software, each output can be configured within Orbit Studio Software to be either a true
analog signal representative of the input or a conditioned/processed digital TTL signal replicatingmachine speed and maintaining phase with the input signal.
For additional details, see the Keyphasor Input Module Datasheet (157M8566).

AC LVDT Input Module
The Orbit 60 Series AC LVDT Input Module provides inputs to interface with four
AC Linear Variable Differential Transformers for position measurements. The
module's primary use is the measurement of case expansion and valve
position. The AC LVDT input module occupies a single slot.
The four AC LVDT configured channels can connect to a:ll

5-wire AC LVDT
6-wire AC LVDT
Note: To configure the 6-wire, 3 and 4 pins are shorted together.
The module's OK LED indicates when the module is functioning properly, andthe LINK LED indicate when the module is communicating to the rest of thesystem. Four channel status LEDs, located on the utility side of the module,
indicate that each AC LVDT sensor is connected and functioning properly.

Temperature Input Modules
TC/RTD Temperature Module
The primary purpose of temperature modules is to interface to thetemperature transducers and convert the signal into a digital
representation. These modules condition and digitize the inputs at a ratethat completely encompasses the signal content and allows for removal of
typical noise sources.
The Orbit 60 Series TC/RTD Temperature Input Modules provide six channelsof either Thermocouple (TC) or Resistive Temperature Detector (RTD)
temperature input sensors.
Each channel of the Orbit 60 Series TC/RTD input module is individuallyconfigurable for sensor type and range using Orbit Studio configuration
software.
The RTD/TC inputs reference the internal system ground, and for thisreason, should only connect to transducers isolated at the sensing end.

Sensor Types
TC sensors - The thermocouple configured channels provide cold junction
compensation for any J, K, E, or T Type Thermocouple.
RTD sensors - The RTD configured channels can be connected to thefollowing:llll

3-Wire 100 Ohm Platinum 0.00392 RTD

Isolated Process Variable / Discrete Input Module (PVD)The Orbit 60 Series Isolated Process Variable and Discrete (PVD) Input module
processes machine-critical parameters such as pressure, flow, temperature,and levels that merit continuous monitoring. The module conditions anddigitizes the signals so the result can be compared with user-programmable
alarm setpoints. The user can program the PVD module using the Orbit
Configuration software to perform current, voltage or discrete input
measurements. This module provides discrete inputs for essential operationalcommands, such as Trip Multiply for machine start-up and Alarm Inhibit.
The monitor accepts +4 to +20 mA current inputs or any proportional voltage
inputs between -10 Vdc and +10 Vdc, in addition to monitoring “dry” or “wet”
contacts from a sensor, switch, or relay.
Primary purposes of the PVD Module:llContinuously process input from monitored parameters to be comparedagainst configured alarm setpoints to drive alarms for machinery protection.
Allow provision of essential machine information, such as Trip Multiply formachine startup and Alarm Inhibit for both operations and maintenancepersonnel.
These modules occupy a single slot. The module OK LEDs indicate proper
functioning, and the LINK LEDs indicate good system communication. Six
Channel Status LEDs on the utility side of the module indicate a connected
sensor in OK condition.

Recorder Module
The recorder output module is a 8-channel single slot width module thatprovides an analog output signal based on a processed measurementfrom any of the proportional measurements within the system. The outputof the recorder output channel is proportional to the associatedmeasurement value within the measurement's full scale range.
The recorder output module is software-selectable to operate in several
output modes, providing the following analog output signal ranges:lll

4 to 20 mA
1 to 5 V
0 to 10 V
When configured for a 4-20 mA output, the recorder channel supports theextended output range of 3.8 mA to 20.5 mA to align with the NAMUR NE43
standard.
These differing signal ranges can accommodate connections to various
interfacing equipment designed to consume and interpret the proportional
analog signals.
The recorder output module provides analog outputs for any proportionalsignal measurements available within the Orbit 60 system including thefollowing examples:lll

Processed Vibration measurements (Direct, 1X Amplitude, 1X Phase, etc.)
Temperature measurements
Position measurements

The recorder output channels' configuration includes several options for clamp output levels,
providing an indication of an invalid health status of the associated measurement. The system will
also attempt to output the configured clamp signal when any fault within the Recorder Output
channel or output load is detected.
The configuration also includes the option to include Recorder Output channels within the protection
path so that detected faults within the Recorder module or wiring can be annunciated throughProtection Fault relays. (See SIL User Guide 134M0398 for additional details when using the Recorder
Output channels in a SIL application.)
For additional details, see the Recorder Output Module Datasheet (137M0704).

Relay Modules
Relay modules may be programed to actuate based on alarm
conditions defined in other modules. Use standard logic
elements (True AND, Normal AND, OR and NOT) to combine
various alarms and statuses (e.g. OK statuses, Bypass, Protection
State, Inhibit, Attention, Protection Fault, etc.) into relay activation
conditions. Orbit Studio is used to program the voting logic.
Relays can operate as a system or group protection fault relay, if
programmed to do so, especially when the protection fault relay
on the SIM does not provide adequate granularity of system
health-typically for multiple machines in one system.
Pairs of relays within the module function as a single DoublePole, Double-Throw relay when appropriately configured. Bothrelay types are available for SIL system implementation. See
Orbit 60 SIL User Guide (134M0398) for additional details anddesign considerations.

1Designates the ability to integrate these measurements to provide additional measurement types.
2These sensors can be configured using a Custom transducer configuration.
3PVT modules are recommended for new sensor installations only. Projects using the Velomitor CT or retrofits that reuse

existing sensors should use PAV or verify sensor power limits.

The PVT is only for positively biased sensors.
The PVT module is generally recommended because of its positive bias and higher supply
current. However, for Orbit 60 installation retrofits using existing Velomitor® sensors, theexisting sensors are recommended to be used with PAV modules and configured as custom
transducers, unless it can be verified that the sensors are compatible with the PVT with its
higher output current.

Orbit Studio Configuration Software
The Orbit Studio software configures Orbit 60 chassis, modules, channels, measurements, setpoints,
relays, and many other aspects to protect plant assets. It is also the primary method used to verify
systems. For more information, see Orbit Studio online help or Orbit Studio Configuration Software
User Guide (137M0696).

Multiple Systems Configuration
You can connect multiple systems from a single Orbit Studio client session. This opens multiple offline
configuration files alongside actively connected systems allowing for easy cross-referencing acrosssystems, while enabling security through user-based permissions. You can copy and paste modules
and channels across systems and configuration files, as well as send and retrieve configurations for
multiple systems at once.

Graphical System and Relay Configuration
Create and manage multiple pages of relay logic by graphically configuring using drag and dropelements and connectors. You can also graphically assemble your system by dragging and dropping
components from a library of modules. The resulting assembly produces a hierarchicalrepresentation of the system for access to individual channels.

probes are mounted andgapped so that themeasurement range istwice the range of a single
proximity probe. Oneprobe is in its linear range
during the first half of themeasurement range andthe second probe is inrange during the second
half of the measurement
range. The monitor isconfigured so that it willswitch from one probe to
the other probe when the
gap voltages are at theswitch point. The switch
point is termed the Cross
Over Voltage. The monitor
uses the Direct static
value from each probe todetermine the overall
expansion value. The
overall expansion value istermed the Composite

The measurement of theaxial position of the rotor
with respect to themachine casing at somedistance from the thrustbearing. Changes in axial
position relative to thecasing affect axial
clearances and areusually the result of
thermal expansion during
startup and shutdown. The
measurement is typicallymade with a proximity
probe transducer
mounted to the machine
casing and observing anaxial surface (e.g., collar)of the rotor.
Data or a signal which

Expansion and is a subset
of a number ofmeasurement methods,
generally termed Ramp
Differential Expansion,
which make use of ramps
to measure axial position.
Two proximity probes
observe different ramps.
The two ramp sections
must be mirror images
with the same ramp
angle. The two probes
mount on the same sideof the rotor and in thesame axial plane. The
monitor uses the direct
static values from bothchannels to measure axial
position and compensate
for the effect of radial
movement. The
compensated result istermed the Composite
static value and is theprimary value used formachine protection andmachinery management

The radial displacementof the rotor journal
centerline from thegeometric center of a fluid
lubricated bearing.
Eccentricity is measured
while the turbine is on slowroll (1 to 240 RPM below the
speed at which the rotor
becomes dynamic andrises in the bearing on theoil wedge) and requires
special circuitry to detect
the peak- to-peak motionof the shaft.

Instantaneous
Piston Position

The physical distance
between the face of aproximity probe tip andthe observed surface. The
