Description
Emerson A6110 Dual-Channel Shaft Relative Vibration Monitor
The
Emerson A6110 is a high-precision vibration monitoring module designed for critical rotating machinery in industries such as power generation, oil & gas, and manufacturing. This dual-channel system provides real-time monitoring of shaft relative vibration, enabling predictive maintenance and ensuring equipment safety.
The Emerson A6110 monitors shaft vibration in industrial machinery, such as turbines, compressors, and pumps, using eddy current sensors. It supports dual independent channels for X and Y axis measurements, offering zero-to-peak, peak-to-peak, or combined mode analysis. The module is compatible with Emerson’s AMS 6500 Machinery Health Monitor system, providing seamless integration with plant-wide automation systems.

EMERSON A6110
- High Precision: Resolves vibrations as small as ±0.1% of full scale, ensuring early detection of bearing wear or misalignment.
- Dual-Channel Redundancy: Supports SIL 2 safety systems with voting logic, reducing false alarms and improving reliability.
- Flexible Integration: Hot-swappable design allows maintenance without system downtime. Compatible with Emerson’s DeltaV™ and Ovation™ DCS systems.
- Advanced Signal Processing: Built-in linearization algorithms and low-pass filters (50–2000 Hz) optimize accuracy in noisy environments.
- Wide Temperature Range: Operates reliably in extreme conditions (-25°C to 70°C), outperforming many competitors.
- Power Generation: Monitors turbine shaft vibrations to prevent rotor-stator contact in coal and gas-fired plants.
- Oil & Gas: Tracks compressor rod wear and ensures safe operation in offshore platforms.
- Manufacturing: Optimizes injection molding machines and presses by detecting early-stage mechanical issues.
A European power plant reduced unplanned downtime by 40% after deploying the Emerson A6110 on its steam turbines. The module’s real-time vibration analysis identified bearing defects before they caused catastrophic failures, saving over €200,000 annually in maintenance costs.
The Emerson A6110 outperforms comparable solutions in:
- Multi-Functionality: Combines vibration monitoring with temperature and position tracking in a single module.
- Temperature Range: Operates at -25°C to 70°C, whereas many competitors are limited to 0°C to 50°C.
- Integration: Native compatibility with Emerson’s AMS 6500 system reduces engineering effort.

EMERSON A6110
- Compatibility: Verify sensor compatibility (e.g., Emerson PR6422/PR6423) and system integration requirements.
- Safety Standards: Choose SIL 2-rated modules for high-risk applications.
- Environmental Needs: Ensure IP20 rating and temperature range match the installation environment.
- Calibration: Perform annual calibration using Emerson’s AMS Machinery Manager software.
- Sensor Checks: Regularly inspect sensor cables for insulation damage.
- Firmware Updates: Keep the module’s firmware updated to access new features and security patches.
- Electrical Isolation: Ensure galvanic separation from power supplies to prevent interference.
- Sensor Placement: Mount sensors perpendicular to the shaft at a gap of 1.0–1.5 mm.
- EMI/RFI Protection: Route signal cables away from high-voltage lines to minimize noise.
