Description
The M2600 Shutdown Unit is a back-up protection device
designed for marine engines. It is ensuring safety shutdown
of the engine in case normal primary shutdown fails. Together
with Engine controller units M2000 or M2500 or other
engine controllers it can be used to build a complete control,
alarm and safety system for marine engines. Alternatively
it can work as a standalone primary shutdown unit in
applications where shutdown functionality is not included
in the start/stop device of the engine. The M2600 design is
based entirely on discreet logic, thus meeting requirements
to safety shutdown devices from the marine classification
societies.
All inputs and outputs of the M2600 have corresponding LED
indication clearly showing whether they are active or not.
The unit furnishes 10 digital shutdown inputs. One is pre-
defined for overspeed and another for emergency stop. All
inputs are dry contacts. Output relays are provided for control
of the fuel valve and the stop solenoid when stopping the
engine in normal conditions. Another output relay is provided
for emergency shutdown. Additionally the unit provides an
output for circuit breaker trip for use with gen-sets. Engine
speed (rpm) can be detected from magnetic and inductive
pick-ups connected to dedicated inputs. Alternatively the
speed can be detected from digital inputs. M2600 provides
cable monitoring on all sensor inputs and for the shutdown
relay output. Configuration is made solely with the dip-
switches and rotary switches on the unit.
