Features:
- 4-Channel Position Monitoring with Universal Transducer Compatibility
- Programmable Measurement Functions for Comprehensive Machinery Protection
- Full Integration with 3500 Rack Configuration Software and System Architecture
The 3500/45 176449-04 operates as the Position Monitor in a 3500 rack, providing comprehensive position monitoring capabilities across four independent channels. It continuously accepts input from proximity transducers, Rotary Position Transducers (RPTs), DC Linear Variable Differential Transformers (DC LVDTs), AC Linear Variable Differential Transformers (AC LVDTs), and rotary potentiometers. The 3500/45 176449-04 conditions the incoming signals and compares the conditioned outputs against user-programmable alarms to enable reliable machinery protection. The 3500/45 176449-04 has made improvements in monitoring versatility over previous position monitor designs in addition to incorporating multi-transducer compatibility within the 3500 rack.
The 3500/45 176449-04 provides essential position monitoring functions common to the entire rack, and is a critical component of the machinery protection path, directly affecting the proper, normal operation of the overall monitor system. One or more 3500/45 176449-04 modules can be installed per rack depending on the monitoring requirements. The 3500/45 176449-04 occupies a full-height slot in the rack and can be installed in any available monitor slot position alongside other 3500 monitoring modules.
For multi-function monitoring applications, the 3500 System requires each 3500/45 176449-04 channel to be configured through the 3500 Rack Configuration Software. In addition to standard position measurement, the configuration also supports specialized functions including Axial (thrust) Position, Differential Expansion, Standard Single Ramp Differential Expansion, Non-standard Single Ramp Differential Expansion, Dual Ramp Differential Expansion, Complementary Differential Expansion, Case Expansion, and Valve Position. The 3500/45 176449-04 configuration executes measurement functions using the internal circuitry specified in the monitor options.
The 3500/45 176449-04 Bently Nevada Position Monitor may still be available for purchase and support from Apter Power beyond End-Of-Life (EOL) by the manufacturer (OEM).
