2.4 PORTABLE DATA ACQUISITION SYSTEM

1.0General

This specification covers the requirements for a fully portable multi-channel, distributed data acquisition system for performance-cum-efficiency monitoring for use in different areas of coal-fired thermal power stations. The areas to be monitored are boiler, turbine and related auxiliaries. Such a system shall be based on highly accurate I/O modules, multi-dropped on standard high-speed data networks (LAN), working in conjunction with IBM-PC compatible computers.

2.0System Details

2.1Size of the System

The set will consist of a data acquisition system for suitable number of measurement channels each of Type –A and Type – B (please refer Para 2.4 for Type A and Type – B). The system shall be compatible for future expansion to about at least 500 measurement channels with add-on I/O modules only. The hardware and software to be supplied shall be capable of handling future expansion needs through configuration by software and addition of add-on hardware modules. The I/O module capacity shall be for 16-20 channels each for Type A and Type B for a convenient size.

2.2Portability

The proposed equipment is to be used for acquiring and processing field (sensor) inputs in different areas of the thermal power plant. All components of the system offered, including Man Machine Interface (Lap Top PC) shall be light in weight and shall be of a profile that permits easy portability, requiring the least manpower for shifting the system modules and components to the measurement sites. The I/O modules shall be enclosed in portable enclosures which should be dust and moisture resistant .

2.3Site Ambient Conditions

The measurement locations shall be both indoors as well as outdoors. The field I/O modules shall be rugged enough to withstand the hostile conditions prevalent in the sites and shall have a degree of protection of which is conforming to plant

environment. Further, these modules shall be suitable for operation at ambient temperatures up to 45o C and Relative Humidity 90%.

2.4I/O Module

The A & B type modules shall be capable of accepting following types of inputs described below:

Section: 2.4 Page 1/10

2.4.1Type A: Capable of accepting two types of inputs, i.e.; all 4-20 m A DC transmitter output or all 4 wire PRT100 RTDs, or any mix of the two.

Inputs a) RTDs – (PT-100 ohms) – 4 wire

b)Transmitter – 4 – 20mA – 2 wire type (with 24 DC power supply for powering the transmitters)

Type B: Capable of accepting Type K thermocouples with built-in CJC. T/C open circuit detection features shall be incorporated in the hardware / software.

2.4.2Each I/O module shall support 4 – 20 m A inputs from 2 wire smart transmitters and shall therefore have suitable internal or external signal conditioning circuitry and provision for 24 Vdc power supply with individual channel having fuse and LED indication integrated with the unit and receive the current output ( 4 – 20mA) from these transmitters.

2.4.3Each of the I/O modules shall have a capacity of 16 to 20 input channels each for type A & type B, and have its own input multiplexer, ADC (Analog-digital converter, minimum 16 bit), communication and supervisory circuits, etc. The minimum isolation voltage between any two input channels and channel to ground will be at least 200 V and a Common Mode Rejection Ratio (CMRR) of 100 dB or better and Normal Mode Rejection Ratio (NMRR) of 50 dB or better, at 50 Hz (mains frequency in India) or better with suitable input guard facilities for noise rejection.

2.4.4The I/O module shall be ‘addressable’ and have appropriate switch settings in the units for system configuration. These modules shall be software selectable.

2.4.5Input power supply for I/O module shall be 230 V AC (+ / - 10%), 50 Hz (47 to 53 Hz)

2.5Module Error Indications

Suitable visual indications shall be provided by the I/O module in case of ‘Calibration’ and ‘ADC’ errors to facilitate calibration and repairs. The indication shall be on module and diagnostic messages could be the on the computer to which it is connected.

2.6Input / Output Terminations

Since the proposed system is for portable and highly precise measurements, it is essential that all terminal points shall support snap on screwed connections, as per industry standards, to eliminate signal leakage at terminals and consequent loss of measurement accuracy.

Section: 2.4 Page 2/10

The termination will be as under:

Type A: 8/9 pin connectors (male & female) which can be configured for 4-20 mA DC as well as PRT – 100 RTDs 4 wire so that no hard wiring in the field is needed.

Type B: 2 pin thermocouple grade material connectors to be provided (male & female) for on-site connections (Omega make or equivalent)

2.7Service Requirements

Since the field measurements may at times last several days, it should be possible to leave the field connections and cable connections undisturbed at measurement sites.

2.8Data Network & Cabling

2.8.1The offered system should support high speed data transmission and all measured results shall be returned to the host (PC) in less than 5 second, even under full system capacity of 500 channels with a guaranteed bus (communication link) spare duty cycle of not less than 20% per second.

2.8.2There should be no deterioration in system performance or data transfer rate up to one km of network cable length.

2.8.3Networking cable (Beldon 9207 or equivalent) to be supplied with the system is as specified below:
