Applications information
INTRODUCTION TO THE SPEEDSYS300 ODS301 OVERSPEED DETECTION SYSTEM
1.1.4 Software
A SpeedSys300 ODS301 overspeed detection system is configured using the SpeedSys300
software – proprietary Windows
®
application software that is supplied with the SpeedSys300
ODS301 module. The computer running the software connects to the SpeedSys300 ODS301
via a USB connector on the front panel of the module.
In typical overspeed monitoring and protection applications, the SpeedSys300 software is
connected to SpeedSys300 ODS301 modules for configuration and commissioning only,
after which the system operates standalone.
1.2 Applications information
1.2.1 Applications
The SpeedSys300 ODS301 overspeed detection system solves overspeed safety
requirements in a simple, reliable and cost-effective way. It is simple to install, configure and
integrate into existing monitoring and protection applications.
For critical rotating machinery that requires monitoring and protection of both overspeed and
vibration, the SpeedSys300 ODS301 module complements the VM600
Mk2
/VM600 and
VibroSmart
®
machinery monitoring systems. As the safety critical speed system
(SpeedSys300 ODS301 overspeed detection system) and any other systems (vibration
and/or combustion) are completely separate (“segregated”), a SpeedSys300 ODS301
module can always be relied upon to shut down a machine, even in the event of a problem
with other systems.
Because the SpeedSys300 ODS301 overspeed detection system is SIL certified “by design”,
it is not limited to specific applications and there are fewer restrictions compared to equivalent
“proven in use” systems. And being a new design, it uses the latest technology so there are
no component supply or obsolescence issues.
For specific applications, contact your local Meggitt representative.
1.2.2 Intended use
The SpeedSys300 ODS301 overspeed detection system is an industrial and professional
overspeed protection system intended for the protection and monitoring of critical and/or
semi-critical turbomachinery in the Energy, Oil & Gas and Process industries. It is equally
suitable for use with hydro or wind turbines and other similar applications that require an
independent layer of protection.
The SpeedSys300 ODS301 module is designed for indoor use only and is meant to be placed
inside a suitable industrial housing, field cabinet (cubicle) or other suitable enclosure.
