Meggitt Vibro-Meter IOCN 200-566-000-113 – Communication/Network Module for VM600 Condition Monitoring Racks

The IOCN 200-566-000-113 is a Vibro‑Meter (Meggitt) plug‑in communication module used in VM600 racks to interface the rack to supervisory systems and software (typically VibroSight) over Ethernet. From my experience, this module is the piece that “ties the rack together” at the system level—marshalling status, alarms and data for the DCS/PLC or the CMS server, without touching any sensor wiring.
You might notice that users often specify this exact part number as a like‑for‑like replacement during outages, because it matches their rack BOM and firmware strategy.

Company’s Order Placement Process and Guarantees

We pack electronics with ESD protection and perform functional checks where applicable. If you need a test report or traceable S/N photos before shipment, just tell me—this typically speeds up plant approval.

Key Features

• VM600 rack integration – Plug‑in module that communicates over the VM600 backplane; no sensor wiring changes.
• Ethernet connectivity to VibroSight – Typically used to stream status, alarms, and configuration data to the software suite.
• Designed for critical rotating assets – Common in turbines, compressors, large motors, and balance‑of‑plant where uptime matters.
• Like‑for‑like replacement for 200-566-000-113 – Helps avoid unexpected firmware or compatibility issues during maintenance windows.
• Rack‑powered – Draws power from the VM600 backplane; simplifies field wiring and panel design.
• Status and health indication – Front indicators (model‑dependent) to assist with quick on‑site diagnostics.

Notes: Specifications and interfaces can vary slightly by hardware/firmware revision. If you share your rack type and installed modules, I can verify compatibility before shipment.

Application Fields

This IOCN module is typically found wherever a VM600 rack is monitoring critical rotating machinery:

• Power generation – steam and gas turbines, generators, boiler feed pumps
• Oil & gas – compressors, turbo‑expanders, pipeline pumping stations
• Petrochemical & refining – process compressors, large blowers, critical fans
• Marine & industrial – propulsion shafts, paper machine rolls, cement kiln drives

A maintenance lead told me their team swapped in a 200-566-000-113 during a short outage and had the rack talking to VibroSight again in minutes—no rewiring, just a clean plug‑in and network check.

Advantages & Value

• Reliability – Industrial design aligned with VM600’s proven architecture for 24/7 service.
• Compatibility – Intended as a like‑for‑like fit in VM600 racks using VibroSight; reduces commissioning time.
• Cost control – Minimizes downtime and engineering effort versus upgrades or panel changes.
• Technical support – We can help confirm firmware level, rack slotting, and Ethernet settings before you receive the part.

Installation & Maintenance

• Cabinet & environment – Install in a VM600 19″ rack within a clean, ventilated cabinet. Maintain ambient temperature typically within 0–55 °C.
• Wiring – Use shielded Cat5e/6 for Ethernet. Keep network cabling away from high‑voltage runs and VFD outputs where practical.
• ESD & handling – Observe ESD precautions; power down the rack as required by your site procedures before insertion/removal.
• Firmware & software – Align IOCN firmware with your VibroSight version. I typically recommend backing up rack configuration before any update.
• Routine checks – Inspect front indicators, verify Ethernet link status, review alarm/event logs quarterly; clean connector area with dry air if dust accumulates.

Quality & Certifications

• Manufacturer operates under ISO 9001 quality management
• CE compliant; RoHS alignment typical for VM600 modules
• Warranty: 365 days
