Product Description
Product Details
Manufacturer: Bently Nevada
Series: 3500/45
Model/Part Number: 140072-04C
Model Type: Position Monitor Module
Description
The 3500/45 Position Monitor is a four-channel module designed to monitor and analyze position data for machinery. It accepts input signals from various transducers and compares them to user-configurable alarm setpoints to ensure machinery operates efficiently and safely.
Supported Transducer Types:
- Proximity Transducers
- Rotary Position Transducers (RPTs)
- DC Linear Variable Differential Transformers (DC LVDTs)
- AC Linear Variable Differential Transformers (AC LVDTs)
- Rotary Potentiometers
The module processes and conditions the input signals to provide accurate position monitoring and protection.
Outputs
Front Panel LEDs:
- OK LED: Indicates the monitor is functioning correctly.
- TX/RX LED: Flashes during communication with other modules in the rack.
- Bypass LED: Illuminates when the monitor is in bypass mode.
Firmware and Software Requirements
To integrate the 3500/45 Position Monitor into an existing 3500 system, the following minimum versions are required:
- 3500/20 RIM Firmware: Rev. G or later
- 3500 Configuration Software: Version 2.41 or later
