The Ronan Series X11CA Computer Annunciators are the latest generation of Ronan’s state-of-the-art annunciators offered in window models. The X11CA is designed for the process and power industries requirements, providing the most economical approach while offering the most advanced data acquisition in serial technology and monitoring, along with Ronan’s high quality and performance standard. The systems in the Window Annunciator feature Monalarm, Dualarm, Trialarm and Quadalarm within Ronan’s standard 3.50 inch (88.90 mm) by 3.50 inch (88.90 mm) mechanical cabinet modules. A system common trouble and a per-point auxiliary relay output may be utilized for field contact repeater or for remote group alarms.
The system monitors internal routines and communication backbone, signaled by dedicated LED or relay contact closure. The X11CA is equipped with a host interface module that provide advanced communication interface protocols to interface with an external host computer, local network, or plant network.

The Ronan X11CA Computer Annunciator Systems with microprocessor based electronics are assembled from basic 3.50 inch (88.90 mm) by 3.50 inch(88.90 mm) modules to make up the overall size requirements and number of windows required. The mechanical modules assembled from aluminum
castings and extrusions provide excellent heat dissipation for a continuously lit annunciator system and feature the structural strength required in
industrial applications. The rear terminal is designed as a single piece molded plastic assembly per window for durability. A small 4.00 inch (101.60 mm)wide x 6.00 inch (152.40 mm) deep x 1.00 inch (25.40 mm) high module (interface module), is provided to connect the system to an external host.

All enclosures are painted with baked black semigloss enamel. Custom colors are optionally available.

The Panel-mount enclosure may be enhanced with a NEMA 4 or NEMA 12 door assembly to seal the front of the alarm system against control panels where it is subject to moisture or corrosive atmosphere. The door is supplied with a clear acrylic window, sealed with a neoprene gasket. Gasketing is supplied for sealing between door frame and control panels.

R A C K - M O U N T

The Ronan alarm system with various window sizes is available for standard 19.00 inch (482.60 mm) or 24.00 inch (609.60 mm) relay rack mounting. The five mechanical module wide unit is suitable for 19.00 inch (482.60 mm), and the six module wide unit can be used for 24.00 inch (609.60 mm) rack spacing.

S U R F A C E - M O U N T

The Ronan Surface-mounted mechanical arrangement alarm system provides front termination access. It is used for applications where the annunciator is to be in an explosion proof housing or NEMA enclosure, and for applications where a surface mounted window annunciator is found more suitable.

P A N E L - M O U N T

The Panel-mount NEMA 1 type enclosure, for control panel applications, mounts through a rectangular cutout and secures to the panel with a number of simple clamping devices supplied with each system.

The Visual Annunciator Systems are utilized to display plant or process status by lighting individual windows, identifying specific process function. The inputs are derived from dry or live contacts to indicate the process condition or status. Single point or multipoint alarm logic modules operate the window lights based on a preselected ISA 18.1 or custom sequence. The Annunciator Systems are available with integral logic split architecture, where logic modules are located remote from the window display or in waterproof or hazardous area enclosures

The Ronan X16PDM Programmable Digital Monitor Systems are designed for the needs of the process and power industries where field inputs and electronics are required to be some distance away from the display or

indicating lamp cabinets, such as Relay Rack Room from Control Room, using multiconductor lamp cabinet cables. The systems provide all the basic features of an annunciator in a small, high density module chassis. A system common trouble alarm and a per-point auxiliary relay output may be utilized for a field contact repeater or for remote group alarms. The per-point optional

auxiliary relay module, equipped with one to four relays, provides a selectable form A or B type dry contact. A system common reflash output allows remote annunciation of any window going into alarm. Similar to the X11CA Window Annunciator, the Programmable Digital Monitor provides serial output of alarms in many industry standard protocols to Host computers, Human Machine Interface (HMI) computers, PLCs and DCS systems.

 

SURFACE-REMOTE LOGIC CHASSIS

 

The Ronan X16PDM-SM Surface-mount Programmable Digital Monitors are designed in two sizes of 32 point and 64 point logic inputs. The chassis is used to mount in NEMA enclosures with standard termination facility of

Weidmueller or custom termination of various industry standard terminal blocks. The system is interfaced to HMI computers through its serial output using industry standard OPC interface via the Host interface module. The system can also interface to one of many types of Ronan lamp cabinets or mosaic cabinets through multiconductor lamp cables or individual wires. The system is widely used in applications where field contact status is to be displayed on graphic displays operating in a door mounted industrial computer, or a visual lamp cabinet mounted on the door of the enclosure.

 

 

GRAPHIC MONITORING APPLICATION SOFTWARE

 

Ronan X16PDM easily interfaces with all common industry display software such as Wonderware?/SPAN>, RS View?/SPAN>, Intellusions?/SPAN>, etc. Ronan provides the X16PDM System with HMI/MMI software and hardware for all monitoring requirements of state-of-the-art installations. Ronan provides OPC configuration software of graphics and object tagging, all based on process or plant requirements. The system easily adapts to a graphics CRT based annunciator for special annunciator applications.

The relay logic based alarm annunciator systems are preferred in applications where extreme environmental conditions are encountered. The combination of proven reliability, noise immunity and simplicity of the logic circuits makes the relay system ideally suited for applications on oil platforms, desert or arctic environments, shipboard, or any place with limited technical support. The alarm modules feature normally open/normally closed field contact selection, auxiliary contact outputs, lock/non-lock selection, and are available in all major ISA 18.1 sequences, as well as a number of custom sequences.
