Description
The BENTLY 3500/25/125800-01 is a Bently Nevada 3500/25 Enhanced Keyphasor I/O Module (Single Channel). It’s a specific module within the Bently Nevada 3500 machinery protection system designed to process signals from rotating machinery. Here’s a breakdown of its functionality based on publicly available resources:
Function:
- Processes a Keyphasor signal from a proximity probe or magnetic pickup. A Keyphasor signal is a pulse generated once per revolution or multiple times per revolution from a rotating shaft or gear.
- Converts the analog Keyphasor signal from the sensor into a digital format compatible with the Bently Nevada 3500 system.
- Transmits the digital Keyphasor signal to the monitor modules within the system rack for further analysis.
Key Features:
- Processes a single Key phasor signal for machine health monitoring.
- Connects to the backplane of a Bently Nevada 3500 system rack.
- Communicates with other monitoring modules using proprietary protocols (details in user manuals).
Benefits of Using a Keyphasor I/O Module:
- Provides crucial data for:
- Machine speed measurement
- Shaft relative position determination (if used with other Keyphasor modules)
- Analysis of machine behavior and potential faults (by monitoring variations in the Keyphasor signal over time)
