Emerson VE4060C1 Mounting and Communication Platform for CHARMs Electronics Modules

FAQ

Q1: What is the Emerson VE4060C1 used for?
The VE4060C1 is used as a carrier platform for DeltaV CHARMs I/O systems, providing power, communication, and mounting for CHARMs modules.

Q2: Is VE4060C1 an I/O module?
No. It is an I/O carrier/backplane assembly, not an analog or digital I/O module.

Q3: What type of communication does it use?
It uses the DeltaV CHARMs redundant Ethernet I/O network for communication with controllers.

Q4: Does the carrier support redundancy?
Yes, it supports redundant Ethernet communication and redundant power configurations.

Q5: What are the dimensions of VE4060C1?
The approximate dimensions are 482 mm × 178 mm × 102 mm.

Q6: What is the weight of the carrier?
The weight is approximately 1.8 kg.

Q7: Can modules be replaced online?
Yes. CHARMs modules installed on the carrier support hot-swapping, allowing maintenance without shutting down the process.

Q8: What is the difference between VE4060C0 and VE4060C1?
Generally, VE4060C0 and VE4060C1 are different carrier revisions/configurations within the CHARMs I/O family. The exact difference depends on the DeltaV release and hardware revision used in the project. For procurement purposes, Emerson documentation should be consulted to verify interchangeability.
