STI Vibration Monitoring Inc.
System Overview
STI’s CMCP7504 is a general-purpose monitoring system capable of continuously monitoring up to 4
channels of vibration, position or temperature. The CMCP7504 can be configured to operate as a
standalone protection system or it can be connected to a host device such as a PLC, DCS or SCADA
system. Local bar graph displays provide the overall amplitudes and alarm status along with a user
identifiable tag name.
Introduction to the CMCP7504
The STI CMCP7504 System is comprised of a series of sub-modules:
AA - Acceleration Module
VA - Velocity Module, Accelerometer Input
VV - Velocity Module, Velocity Sensor Input
EV - Enveloped Acceleration Module, Accelerometer Input
RV - Radial Vibration Module, Proximity Probe Input
TP - Thrust Position Module, Proximity Probe Input
AM - Analog Input Module, 4-20mA or 1-5 VDC Input
TM - Temperature Input, 100 Ohm Platinum RTD or 10mV/Deg. C
The (AA) Acceleration Module is for connecting to Piezoelectric accelerometer with a mV/g output.
The signal is processed for continuous monitoring and the overall amplitude is converted into a 4-
20mA output, proportional to the full-scale range selected, for transfer to a PLC, DCS or other facility
control system. Acceleration can be displayed in g’s with either RMS or Peak detection.
The (VA) Velocity Module is for connecting to Piezoelectric accelerometer with a mV/g output. The
signal is processed for continuous monitoring and the overall amplitude is converted into a 4-20mA
output, proportional to the full-scale range selected, for transfer to a PLC, DCS or other facility
control system. Velocity can be displayed in terms of either in/Sec or mm/Sec with either RMS or
Peak detection.
The (VV) Velocity Module is for connecting to Piezo-Velocity sensor with a mV/in/s or mV/mm/s
output. The signal is processed for continuous monitoring and the overall amplitude is converted
into a 4-20mA output, proportional to the full-scale range selected, for transfer to a PLC, DCS or
other facility control system. Velocity can be displayed in terms of either in/Sec or mm/Sec with
either RMS or Peak detection.
The (EV) Enveloped Acceleration Module is for connecting to a Piezoelectric accelerometer with a
mV/g output. The signal is processed to calculate an Acceleration Enveloping value within a selected
bandwidth, 0-1,000Hz (Filter #2) or 500-10,000Hz (Filter #3) for continuous monitoring and the
overall amplitude is converted into a 4-20mA output, proportional to the full-scale range selected,
for transfer to a PLC, DCS or other facility control system. Enveloped Acceleration can be displayed in
terms of gE.
The (RV) Radial Vibration Module is for connecting to eddy current probe systems (also referred to as
a proximity probe system) with a mV/mil or mV/mm output. The signal is processed for continuous
monitoring and the overall amplitude is then converted into a 4-20mA output for transfer to a PLC,
DCS or other facility control system. Radial vibration can be displayed in terms of mils or microns
Peak to Peak. The CMCP7504 does not provide -24VDC power to the eddy probe system.
