Ideal replacement for 19" rack-based legacy alarm systems

The Omni16R is an ideal replacement for rack-based legacy alarm systems. Not only is it a fast and cost-effective upgrade solution but it offers increased reliability too. Increased Reliability Most rack-based legacy alarm systems rely on a single central processing unit (CPU), causing complete loss of the alarm system due to a single CPU failure. The Omni16R, however, does not rely on a single CPU. Each Omni16R alarm card is a standalone 16-point alarm annunciator in its own right, with its own processor and watchdog, eliminating complete loss of the alarm system due to a single CPU failure. The Omni16R alarm annunciator is based on the Omni16C alarm annunciator logic, repackaged into a 19in rack-mount version (up to 320 alarm points in a rack). The technology used in the Omni16R is identical to the Omni16C, which has also been Emphasis assessed for use in the UK nuclear industry. Omni16R can replace 19in rack-mount legacy alarm systems such as Babcock Clifford & Snell, RIS MPAS90, RIS AN5100 and Robinson Reed alarm systems. Benefits of the Omni16R Emphasis assessed for use in the UK nuclear industry IEC61580 SIL 1 assessed Proven upgrade path for Babcock Clifford & Snell, RIS MPAS90, AN5100 and Robinson Reed annunciator logic Dual powered with no master CPU (each 16 channel card has its own processor and watchdog eliminating complete loss of the alarm system due to a single CPU failure) 320 alarm points per 3U rack Up to 960 alarm points in a single system Capable of driving all types of LED and bulb annunciator displays Whole range of communications options available including Ethernet, Wireless ISA100 and Modbus RS232/485
