Key Features and Specifications

General Overview:

  • The 3500/65 module is designed to measure and monitor vibration signals from gearboxes in rotating machinery systems. It helps in identifying potential problems such as gear misalignment, bearing failures, and excessive wear.
  • It is a plug-in module for the Bently Nevada 3500 Series system, providing real-time monitoring and protection for critical assets.

Electrical and Performance Specifications:

  • Input:
    • The module receives inputs from vibration transducers (typically seismic transducers or accelerometers) connected to the machinery. It processes these signals to detect vibration levels, frequencies, and other critical indicators.
  • Power Supply:
    • The module is typically powered by the 3500 rack system, which provides 24V DC power to operate the module.
  • Output:
    • Processed vibration data is made available to the 3500 rack system for further analysis and monitoring, and can trigger alarms or shutdowns based on preset threshold conditions.
  • Signal Conditioning:
    • The 3500/65 module conditions the vibration signals, converting them to readable data for use in the overall monitoring and protection system.
