Revision 5MicroGuard-II Operating Manual
1.0 INTRODUCTION
‘MicroGuard-II is an intrinsically safe shutdown system for large engines or rotating machinery and
compressors. It combines a state-of-the-art microprocessor based annunciator with programmable
controller technology to produce the most advanced, flexible engine safety system available,
MicroGuard-II provides the brains for a complete safety control system which is easily configured by
the panel builder, packager or user to meet the exact needs of the engine system. It is adaptable to
a5 engines, diesel engines or electric motor driven equipment used in hazardous areas.
‘The system may be set up for various configurations, from 16 channel alarm monitoring to auto-start &
stop sequencing control, including pre- and post-lube, 32 alanm/shutdown channel and speed
monitoring. The system is made up of two modules, the first being a CSA approved explosion-proof
Power Supply Module containing the power supply, output relays and intrinsically safe barriers, and
the second being the intrinsically safe Electronics Module containing the liquid crystal display, operator
keypad sensing switch connections, and microprocessor logic system, suitable for panel mounting.
‘Typical applications are gas & diesel engines, electric driven pump/compressor sets, and processing
plants for hazardous liquids or gases. For non hazardous environments, a suitable industrial power
supply may be used to power the Electronics Module.

Revision 5 Page 3MicroGuard-II Operating Manual
‘The system operation mode is easily configurable by utilizing 12 selector (DIP) switches mounted on
the printed circuit card behind the facia, and then programming the 8 timers, 3 speed set points and e
alarm classes by membrane pushbuttons when prompted by the liquid crystal display. No battery
backup supply is required as all parameters are held in nonvolatile memory with 10 years life
expectancy.
NOTE: On start/stop, alarm and speed monitoring systems, there will normally be 4 intemally
monitored conditions, e.g. overspeed, underspeed, failed to start and pre-lube pressure fault,
therefore the unit has in effect 36 active alarm channel possibilities. In addition, there are
3 more special alarm conditions concerning correct functioning of the microprocessor and power
‘supply.
L1 WHAT DOES MICROGUARD-II DO?
MicroGuard-II functions as a configurable sequencing annunciator. It is configurable in that its
functions are field settable without special tools or programming languages to provide
flexibility in adapting to many types of machinery and users. It sequences both automatic startups
and shutdowns. ‘The annunciator function gives first-out indications and elarms on machine faults.
Features

1.2 AGENCY APPROVALS
AMOT Model 8602 MicroGuard-II has been approved by the Canadian Standards Association to be
intrinsically safe for use in hazardous atmospheres per Class 1 Group D Division 1 when used with
AMOT Model 8612A1, 86122 or 8612A3 explosion proof Power Supply Module and Model 8017A3
Magnetic Pickup.
WARNING
Use of MicroGuard-II with any other Power Supply or Magnetic
Pickup will void this approval for use in hazardous areas.
1.3 INTRINSICALLY SAFE EQUIPMENT
Explosion Proof Systems:
NEMA Type 7 explosion proof enclosures will be capable of withstanding the pressures resulting from
an internal explosion of specified gases, and contain such an explosion sufficiently that an explosive
gas-air mixture existing in the atmosphere surrounding the enclosure will not be ignited. The alternative
to explosion proof equipment is the use of intrinsically safe (L.S.) devices.
Intrinsic Safety:
Intrinsically safe equipment is safe by the nature of its operation and design, The following
description is from the Instrument Society of America, Standard ISA-RP12.2:
“Intrinsically safe equipment and wiring is equipment which is incapable of releasing
sufficient electrical or thermal energy under normal or abnormal conditions, to cause
ignition of a specific hazardous atmosphere mixture in its most ignitable concentration.
Intrinsically safe electrical equipment and wiring may be installed in any hazardous
location of any Group classification for which it is accepted without requiring explosion
proof housings or other means of protection.’
