Bently Nevada 3500/60-05 Temperature Monitor
1. Core Functions
Multi-Channel Temperature Monitoring:
Provides 6-channel temperature measurement for RTDs (Resistance Temperature Detectors) and TCs (Thermocouples), supporting both isolated and non-isolated configurations.
Configurable for absolute temperature or differential temperature monitoring (e.g., bearing metal temperatures, compressor discharge temperatures).
Machinery Protection:
Compares real-time temperature data against user-programmable alarm setpoints (e.g., API 670-compliant thresholds for radial/thrust bearings).
Triggers alerts or shutdowns via the 3500 system to prevent equipment damage.
Integration & Communication:
Interfaces with 3500 rack systems (e.g., 3500/05 framework) and external platforms like System 1® for predictive maintenance.
Supports TMR (Triple Modular Redundancy) configurations (requires three adjacent modules for fault tolerance).
2. Technical Features
Input Types: RTDs (Pt100, Cu10, Ni120) and TCs (J, K, E, T, etc.) with optional channel isolation (250 Vdc).
Configuration: Programmable via 3500 Configuration Software (alarm thresholds, channel pairing, unit conversion).
Environmental Tolerance: Operates in -30°C to +65°C ambient conditions (reduced range for isolated TCs above +35°C).
3. Applications
Critical Industries: Power plants (turbines, generators), oil & gas (compressors, pumps), and chemical processing.
Monitoring Targets: Bearing temperatures, process fluids, motor stators, and steam systems.
4. Key References
TMR Configuration: Requires triple-module installation for fault-tolerant voting logic.
Isolation: TC-isolated versions mitigate electrical interference in harsh environments.
