Product Short Description
Technical Specifications:
- Input Signal Compatibility:
- Accepts signals from proximity probes (e.g., eddy current sensors) or magnetic pickups.
- Supports dual-channel operation for redundancy.
- Speed Measurement Range:
- Configurable to monitor speeds up to 50,000 RPM (exact range depends on sensor type and configuration).
- Alarm Thresholds:
- User-programmable settings for overspeed alarms (e.g., warning, danger levels).
- Supports speed band alarms for precise threshold control.
- Output Signals:
- Provides relay outputs for alarm activation.
- Communicates with the 3500 framework via backplane for system-wide integration.
Description
- Environmental Ratings:
- Operating temperature: -40°C to +85°C (-40°F to +185°F).
- Storage temperature: -55°C to +125°C (-67°F to +257°F).
- Physical Attributes:
- Half-height module design for integration into 3500 series racks.
- Weight: Approximately 1–2 kg (depending on configuration).
Functional Features:
- Real-Time Overspeed Detection: Continuously monitors rotational speed and triggers alarms when thresholds are exceeded.
- Redundant Operation: Supports dual-channel configurations for fail-safe operation.
- Programmable Alarms: Users can set custom speed thresholds and alarm delays via 3500 configuration software.
- Keyphasor Signal Compatibility: Can interface with enhanced Keyphasor modules to provide precise timing for vibration analysis.
- Hot-Swappable Design: Allows module replacement without disrupting system operation (when installed in a powered 3500 framework).
Application Scenarios:
- Power Generation: Monitors turbine speeds in gas, steam, and hydroelectric plants to prevent overspeed-induced failures.
- Oil and Gas: Protects compressors and pumps in refineries and offshore platforms.
- Petrochemical Industry: Ensures safe operation of rotating equipment in chemical processing plants.
- Metallurgical Sector: Monitors motors and fans in steel mills to avoid mechanical overspeed damage.
- Aerospace: Used in test cells for engine and rotor monitoring.
Compatibility:
- Designed exclusively for the Bently Nevada 3500 series monitoring system.
- Integrates with DCS/PLC platforms via Modbus or Ethernet communication modules (e.g., 3500/92).
- Certified for use in hazardous locations (ATEX, IECEx, CSA).
Certifications and Standards:
- Meets API, ISO, and ASTM standards for vibration and speed monitoring.
- Complies with EMC directives (EN 61326) for industrial environments.
- RoHS compliant (restriction of hazardous substances).
