SST 5136-RE-VME VME Bus Interface Module

SST 5136-RE-VME VME Bus Interface Module

Engineered for critical industrial applications, the SST 5136-RE-VME VME Bus Interface Module acts as a bridge between VMEbus master cards and peripheral devices. Widely used in power plants, manufacturing lines, and process control systems, it ensures dependable data transfer where operational continuity matters most.

Commonly deployed in environments like ABB AC800M systems, GE Fanuc Mark V controllers, and Foxboro I/A Series networks, this module handles communication tasks in harsh conditions. For example, a chemical plant in Texas recently integrated it with their existing 3500/22M Bently Nevada setup to improve turbine monitoring reliability. We frequently handle cross-compatibility requests with legacy systems like the 5SHY6545L0001 IGCT modules and newer Triconex 3008 series.

What sets this module apart is its dual-channel redundancy design – if one communication path fails, the secondary circuit takes over within 15ms. The ruggedized aluminum housing resists vibration up to 15G shock, while the front-panel LED indicators simplify troubleshooting. Unlike generic alternatives, SST’s proprietary firmware reduces protocol conversion latency by 40%, making it ideal for real-time control loops.

In practice, users praise its “plug-and-forget” reliability during extended operations. One maintenance engineer noted that after installing this module in their Emerson OVATION system, communication errors dropped from 3-4 weekly incidents to less than one every two months. The modular design also allows hot-swapping faulty components without shutting down the entire line.
