Not Your Old-Fashioned Protection System
The old-fashioned protection systems running in your plant today comes with very specific limitations. It lacks the prediction data for advanced warning of developing problems. It requires an OPC server to tie back to the digital control system. And it requires a trip to the control room or field cabinet to view data. Modern protection system address these limitations.
The AMS 6500 ATG protection system is a modern protection-plus-prediction system that is designed to easily replace obsolete protection systems while still making use of the existing cabinets, cables, sensors, and the like. The AMS 6500 ATG comes with flexible cards that can be configured to acquire prediction data, an embedded OPC server, and a mobile app for viewing data from anywhere on the plant network.

Are Your Critical Assets and Production Goals at Risk?
API 670 peace of mind with ultramodern, proven technology.
While hard to believe, many of the world’s leading manufacturers have plants today using 30+ year-old-protection systems for critical production assets like compressors, turbines, generators, and many others. Additionally, widely adopted legacy vendors have left many long-time customers and end users to absorb the blows associated with long lead times, unavailable spare parts, supply chain challenges or poor support. and many others. Additionally, widely adopted legacy vendors have left many long-time customers and end users to absorb the blows associated with long lead times, unavailable spare parts, supply chain challenges or poor support.
Plants looking to implement modern protection technology are turning to the AMS 6500 ATG system – field-proven protection system with embedded prediction tools. Now operators can identify developing faults and analyze conditions during transient stages – the startup and shutdown of turbo machinery – when equipment is most likely to fail.
