Product Details
The 3500/42-07-00 Proximitor Seismic Monitor is a four-channel machinery protection module engineered by Bently Nevada. It accepts inputs from proximity and seismic transducers to continuously condition signals for vital vibration and position measurements. By evaluating operating parameters against user-configured alarm setpoints, the monitor drives machinery alerts to safeguard critical industrial assets.
Core Functions and Operation
The module utilizes the 3500 Rack Configuration Software to assign monitoring functions such as radial vibration, thrust position, eccentricity, differential expansion, and acceleration. Each of the four channels operates independently to track designated machine health metrics. Front-panel LEDs display the operational status, communication state, and bypass conditions for immediate diagnostic visibility.
Inputs and Signal Conditioning
The unit accepts one to four proximity, velocity, or acceleration transducer signals through standard or TMR I/O configurations. It provides internal power to connected proximity transducers while filtering raw inputs using advanced low-pass and high-pass filtering structures. Buffered coaxial connectors on the front panel allow direct signal analysis for each channel.
Alarms and Analog Outputs
Alarm setpoints are user-programmable for each active proportional value, enabling precise Alert and Danger thresholds. The module supplies proportional 4 to 20 mA recorder outputs for each channel to interface with external control and monitoring systems. Short-circuit protection ensures that loop outputs remain stable during external wiring faults.
