Vibro VM600 system upgrade to VM600 MK2

Time: June 12, 2026

World famours intergrated machinery protection, condition and performance monitoring brand Vibro upgrade the rack- based system from VM600 to VM600 Mk2.

The basic configuration of the machinery protection system including the following hardware:
1. The 19''x6U rack
2. Rack power supply
3. Machinery protection card
4. Input/Out card for the MPC4
5. Analog monitoring card
6. Input/Out card for the AMC8
7. Relay card
8. CPU card
9. Input/Out card for the CPUM

The typically cards ordering number is changed as well, the exact orderin number difference can be seen in the below form:

Description	VM600	VM600 MK2
Description	VM600	VM600 MK2
19''x6U rack	ABE040 and ABE042
Rack power supply	RPS6U 200-582-500-02h	RPS6U MK2 200-582-200-12h
Machinery protection card	MPC4 200-510-SSS-1Hh	MPC4 MK2 600-041
Input/Out card for the MPC4	IOC4T 200-560-000-113	IOC4T MK2 600-043
Relay card	RLC16 200-570-000-1Hh	RLC16 Mk2 600-045
CPU card	CPUM 200-595-0Ss-33h	CPUM Mk2 600-050
Input/Out card for the CPUM	IOCN 200-566-000-1Hh	IOCN Mk2 600-051

Besides the front panel appearance and the ordering number, the outstanding features of Mk2 system are:
1. Integrated Protection and Monitoring
The MPC4 Mk2 and I/O modules integrate protection and condition monitoring, delivering combined capabilities while ensuring network security. The XMV16 module is no longer required for condition monitoring.
2. SIL 2 Compliant Design
The VM600Mk2 has obtained SIL 2 certification. There is a clear difference in the certification approach between the two generations. The original VM600 achieved SIL 2 certification based on years of field operation data, while the new MPC4Mk2 and RLC16Mk2 modules are built to comply with SIL 2 standards from the ground up.
3. Enhanced Relay Functions
RLC16Mk2 and MPC4Mk2 modules feature epoxy resin sealed relays for enhanced protection.
MPC4Mk2 has been upgraded from 4 to 5 relays, with the extra channel for module fault alerts.
All SPDT relays provide NO and NC contacts. Relay on/off status can be set through software, without using hardware jumpers.
4. Enhanced Cybersecurity
5. Optimized Configuration Software
6. Simplicity Meets Versatility
VM600Mk2 maintains and extends the ease of use of the legacy VM600. There is no need for a separate XMV16 module when combining protection and condition monitoring.
The MPC4Mk2 features 5 relays, so most users can work without the external RLC16Mk2 relay module. Boasting just three module types, the system is streamlined and efficient.
