core positioning
The AC500eCo series 32 channel analog input module is embedded in the expansion slot next to the YPQ101E application controller and can also be deployed on site as a remote I/O node through PROFIBUS DP. It is specifically designed for large-scale process variable acquisition, replacing multiple small capacity modules for high-density deployment, reducing cabinet occupation and wiring costs.
core functionality
In terms of analog input, 32 independent analog input channels are provided, and each channel can be independently configured with signal types. Supports 4 to 20mA current signal as the main input type, and also supports 0 to 10V voltage signal input. The signal range of each channel can be set through jumper wires or software parameters on the module. All channels have electrical isolation and are independent of each other to prevent signal crosstalk.
In terms of signal accuracy, the A/D conversion resolution is 12 bits, the linear error is less than or equal to plus or minus 0.1%, and the full-scale error is less than or equal to plus or minus 0.2%. The measurement update rate is less than 40 milliseconds, meeting the real-time requirements of most process controls. Built in low-pass filter with a time constant of 100 milliseconds, effectively suppressing high-frequency interference on site.
In terms of channel configuration, each channel can independently select current or voltage input mode, and supports mixed access of two-wire and four wire transmitters. Equipped with wire breakage detection function, it can identify sensor wire breakage or fault when the input signal is below 3.6mA, and report the abnormality to the controller.
In terms of communication, as a local I/O, it is directly interconnected with the YPQ101E controller through a dedicated connector, without the need for additional communication protocol configuration. As a remote I/O, it communicates with the controller through PROFIBUS DP and supports three speeds: 960kbps, 1.5Mbps, and 3Mbps. Node addresses from 0 to 255 can be configured.
In terms of hardware, the external dimensions are approximately 160mm by 160mm by 120mm, with a net weight of about 0.8kg. It has an IP20 protection level and is installed on a 35mm DIN rail. The working temperature ranges from negative 25 degrees Celsius to positive 70 degrees Celsius, and the wide temperature range can be selected from negative 40 degrees Celsius to positive 85 degrees Celsius. The power consumption is about 5W, powered by the controller or bus.
Application industry
Centralized collection of process variables such as temperature, pressure, and flow in the power utility industry, substations and distribution networks under the State Grid Southern Power Grid. In the petroleum and petrochemical industry, multi loop instrument signal access is used in the refining plants and oilfield stations of PetroChina, Sinopec, and CNOOC. Multi point temperature vibration monitoring of crushing and ball milling stations in the mining and metallurgical industry for non-ferrous and ferrous metal mines. In the cement and building materials industry, multi loop process monitoring of kiln grinding systems in large cement groups such as Conch China Resources. Multi point collection of pulp concentration, temperature, and pressure in the paper industry, pulp mills, and paper mills. Multi point monitoring of tank liquid level and temperature in dairy beer and beverage factories in the food and beverage industry. Multi parameter collection of ventilation, air conditioning, and water systems for subway and light rail in the rail transit industry. Multi point liquid level, flow rate, and pressure monitoring of municipal pump stations and water supply pipelines in the municipal engineering industry. Multi point collection of inverter temperature combiner box current for renewable energy industry, wind farms, and photovoltaic power plants. Multi point monitoring of cooling water return temperature and chilled water pressure in large data centers in the data center industry.
Usage scenario
Firstly, centralized collection of multi loop process variables. In refining equipment or cement kiln grinding systems, YPK117A replaces four 8-channel modules with one module, collecting 32 temperature, pressure, flow, and liquid level signals at once, and uploading them to DCS after unified processing by YPQ101E controller, greatly reducing cabinet space and module quantity.
Secondly, PROFIBUS DP remote I/O expansion. In unmanned oil pump rooms or distribution rooms, YPK117A is deployed as a remote I/O node in the on-site operation box, and 32 analog signals are transmitted back to the YPQ101E controller in the central control room through the PROFIBUS DP bus, replacing a large number of point-to-point hard wiring.
Thirdly, the hybrid connection of two-wire transmitters. At the mining crushing station or cement mill site, YPK117A is simultaneously connected to a two-wire temperature transmitter and a four wire pressure transmitter. Each channel is independently configured with a signal range, and the disconnection detection function automatically identifies sensor faults and alarms.
Fourth, multi-point monitoring of constant pressure water supply. In the municipal pump station, YPK117A collects pressure and water tank level signals from multiple nodes in the pipeline network, and works with YPQ101E controller to achieve multi-point pressure balance control, which is more accurate than the single loop scheme.
Fifth, multi-point temperature collection at wind and solar power stations. Deploy YPK117A on the fan and inverter sides to collect multi-point signals such as generator winding temperature, bearing temperature, inverter module temperature, etc., and upload them to the centralized control center through PROFIBUS DP to meet the requirements of decentralized layout and multi-point measurement in new energy stations.
Sixth, monitoring the cooling system of the data center. In a large data center refrigeration station, YPK117A collects multiple signals such as chilled water return temperature, cooling water inlet and outlet temperature difference, and water pump current. After calculation by the controller, the start stop strategy of the refrigeration machine is optimized to achieve energy-saving operation.
