Panametrics flare.IQ Generation 2, Руководство по эксплуатации и обслуживанию

Страница: 10 / 50

1.3 Equipment overview
The system hardware includes two 19” rack mounting
sheet metal modules that house compact fanless digital
processing units (DPU), redundant power supplies, a pair of
ethernet switches and other power distribution equipment
and cables. The top power distribution and networking
module is shared with up to six DPU modules installed in the
bottom module (figure 2). A single DPU module is configured
to control a single flare stack while a second DPU module
loaded with identical firmware and settings provided for
redundancy. However, a single DPU is adequate for digital
verification of a single flare flow meter given the relatively
low frequency of this procedure. For example, if a customer
site has two flare stacks that need to be controlled, one
power distribution and network (top) module and a bottom
module with four (4) DPUs installed would be required. The
power distribution and networking module weighs 8.65 lbs.
(3.92 kg) and the bottom DPU module with the maximum
number (6) of DPU’s installed weighs 8.55 lbs. (3.88 kg).
