Key Core Functions

• 16-Channel High-Density Integrated Temperature Acquisition: The module integrates 16 completely independent isolated temperature measurement channels, which can replace 2-3 ordinary 4/8-channel industrial temperature acquisition modules at the same time, effectively reducing the number of modules in the 3500 protection system rack, saving the cabinet installation space, and the system hardware cost is reduced by more than 30% compared with the scheme using scattered modules.
• Dynamic Temperature High-Speed Sampling and Analysis: Different from ordinary slow-response temperature acquisition0Hz full-channel synchronous sampling, which can capture modules, this module supports up to 10 the transient dynamic temperature mutation process that cannot be detected by ordinary slow temperature measurement modules during the abnormal operation of the unit, such as the instantaneous temperature change of the bearing bush during the oil film oscillation fault, helping the prediction maintenance system to find early hidden dangers of equipment faults in advance.
• Full-Coverage Sensor Fault Self-Diagnosis: Each channel independently has automatic fault detection function, which can quickly identify abnormal states such as temperature sensor signal line open circuit, short circuit, signal loss, and cold-end compensation abnormality, and upload fault alarm information to the 3500 system and upper monitoring platform in time, avoiding the wrong judgment of equipment operation state caused by temperature measurement signal failure.
• Multi-Level Temperature Protection Alarm Mechanism: Each channel can independently configure two-level alarm thresholds (warning alarm and trip protection alarm), when the temperature exceeds the set warning threshold, it will send out on-site alarm to remind the operation and maintenance personnel to pay attention, when the temperature reaches the trip protection threshold, it can output hard-wired interlock signal, cooperate with the 3500 system relay output module to trigger the unit protection trip, avoiding the major equipment damage accident caused by the equipment overheating.
• Perfect Data Compatibility Integration: The module can seamlessly transmit all 16 paths of temperature data to Bently Nevada System 1 prediction maintenance platform and on-site DCS/PLC system through the 3500 system interface module, no additional signal conversion equipment is needed, it can realize the unified display of temperature data and vibration, displacement, rotating speed data of the unit on the same monitoring interface, helping the operation personnel to fully grasp the full state of the unit operation.

Typical Application Scenarios

• Industrial transformation and upgrading projects: Spare parts replacement and system maintenance of old Bently Nevada 3500 series machinery protection systems that have been in operation for many years in various industrial sites.

Installation and Maintenance Guidelines

• Strict anti-static protection must be implemented before installation: operators must wear a reliably grounded anti-static wrist strap and anti-static gloves to avoid static electricity damaging the precision AD conversion chips and high-precision reference components on the board.
• The temperature signal wiring must strictly follow the Bently Nevada 3500 system special wiring specifications, thermocouple signals must use dedicated compensation wires, RTD signals must use 3-wire system connection, and the signal wiring and power wiring must be routed separately to avoid electrical interference affecting the temperature measurement accuracy.
• <;">After installation, perform full function test and temperatureli style="margin-bottom: 10px measurement accuracy calibration of the module through the dedicated Bently Nevada 3500 Rack Configuration engineering software, confirm that the signal acquisition function, fault diagnosis function, alarm protection function and data transmission function of each channel fully meet the system design requirements.
• Regularly check the operation status indicator of the module during daily operation, regularly clean the dust accumulated on the surface of the circuit board every 2 years, and regularly verify the measurement accuracy of the temperature channel with a portable temperature calibrator, which can effectively extend the service life of this dynamic temperature monitoring module to more than 15 years.
