Bently Nevada 3500/65 145988-02 16-Channel Temperature Monitor

Function Features

• Flexible Multi-sensor Compatibility: It supports inputs from various RTDs and isolated tip thermocouples, and can be configured to mix these two types of sensor inputs. This flexibility enables it to adapt to different temperature monitoring needs on industrial sites without requiring additional signal conversion equipment.
• Triple Modular Redundant Adaptability: It can form a triple modular redundant system with two other identical modules. The voting logic of the system ensures accurate temperature monitoring data and continuous operation of the monitoring system, which is critical for safety-critical industrial scenarios that cannot tolerate monitoring interruptions.
• Programmable Alarm Mechanisms: Users can set custom alert and danger setpoints within the full-scale range through dedicated software. When the monitored temperature exceeds the set thresholds, the module immediately triggers alarm signals to notify operators to handle potential risks promptly and prevent equipment damage caused by overheating or abnormal temperature changes.
• Intuitive Status Indication: It is equipped with OK, TX/RX, and bypass status LEDs. These indicators clearly show the module’s normal operating status, communication status with other modules in the 3500 rack, and whether it is in maintenance bypass mode, facilitating quick troubleshooting.
• Convenient Configuration and Integration: It is fully configured via the 3500 rack configuration software, and can be seamlessly installed into the 3500 series rack system. It supports data exchange through multiple communication interfaces, enabling smooth connection with upper-level control systems and realizing centralized management and analysis of temperature data.

Application Scenarios

• Power Generation Industry: It is installed on steam turbines, generators, and transformers in thermal power and hydropower stations. It monitors the temperature of key components such as bearings and windings. It promptly detects abnormal temperature rises to avoid equipment burnout and ensures the continuous and stable operation of power generation systems.
• Oil and Gas Industry: It is applied to offshore drilling platforms, natural gas compressors, and oil pipeline pumping units. It monitors the temperature of pipeline walls, compressor cylinders, and pumping equipment in complex and harsh field environments, effectively preventing safety accidents such as pipeline leakage caused by temperature-induced material fatigue.
• Chemical Processing Industry: It is deployed on chemical reactors, distillation towers, and heat exchangers. It tracks the temperature changes during chemical reactions and material transportation. Stable temperature monitoring ensures that production processes comply with preset standards and avoids dangerous situations such as material decomposition or equipment explosion due to temperature abnormalities.
• General Manufacturing Industry: It is used for temperature monitoring of pumps, fans, and transmission equipment in pulp and paper, metallurgical, and water treatment plants. It monitors the temperature of bearings and transmission parts in real time, helps arrange maintenance plans reasonably, and reduces production downtime caused by equipment failures.
• Rotating Machinery Monitoring: It is widely used in the temperature monitoring of industrial rotating machinery such as air compressors and centrifugal pumps. It cooperates with other 3500 series modules to form a comprehensive machinery protection system, covering temperature, vibration and other key monitoring indicators.
