Description
1. Product Description
⚙️ The Bently Nevada 3500/42M (176449-02) is a four-channel Proximitor/Seismic Monitor in the 3500 Machinery Protection System. It processes signals from compatible proximity probes, velocity transducers, and accelerometers to monitor rotating machinery vibration and position. The module compares measured values with configured alarm setpoints to support machinery condition monitoring and protection.
🔧 Typical applications include steam turbines, gas turbines, compressors, pumps, and other critical rotating equipment. The monitor is configured through compatible 3500 Rack Configuration Software. Verify the rear I/O module, transducer type, channel configuration, and system revision before installation.
