3500/60 Temperature Monitor

Overview

The bently nevada 3500/60 Temperature Monitor integrates temperature protection into the Bently Nevada 3500 machinery protection rack. By conditioning RTD/TC signals and converting them to engineering units, it drives alarm logic for trips/interlocks and supplies high-quality data to System 1 so you can correlate heat with vibration, process changes, and machine state.

Measurements & Inputs

• Sensor types: Common RTD (e.g., Pt100; 2/3/4-wire) and TC (Type K/J/E/T, etc.)

• Engineering units: °C/°F with linearization and scaling

• Per-channel setup: Range, filtering, and alarm strategy are independently configurable

Protection & Alarming

• Programmable Alert/Danger thresholds with delays and latching options

• Time-stamped events to the rack—tie to relay logic for shutdowns/interlocks

• Designed to complement API-class protection philosophies alongside vibration monitors

Diagnostics & System 1

• Publishes temperature trends to System 1 (via rack interface, e.g., 3500/22M TDI)

• Correlate temperature with vibration/phase/process for faster root-cause analysis

• Supports reports, alarms history, and maintenance planning

Integration & Operation

• Hot-swappable monitor; front LEDs indicate OK/fault/alarm

• Configured via 3500 Rack Configuration Software; remote work through System 1 per site standard

• Works with existing 3500 monitors (40M/42M/44M, etc.) in mixed racks

Compatibility & Ordering Notes

• Confirm sensor model, wiring (RTD 3/4-wire preferred), ranges, and ambient conditions

• Share rack BOM/slot map and System 1 version to verify compatibility

• Provide cable lengths and termination details to avoid measurement drift/noise

Typical Applications

• Bearing and housing temperature on turbines, compressors, large motors/generators

• Lube-oil and coolant circuits monitoring

• Seal and case temperature protection in critical rotating assets

FAQ

Q1: Which sensors are supported?

RTDs (e.g., Pt100) and common thermocouples (K/J/E/T…). We’ll confirm per your sensor list.

Q2: Does it provide protection alarms?

Yes—Alert/Danger with delays/latching feed the rack’s relay logic for trips/interlocks.

Q3: Can I trend data in System 1?

Yes—temperature values are logged/trended in System 1, enabling correlation with vibration.

Q4: RTD wiring recommendation?

Use 3-wire or 4-wire RTD wiring for better accuracy and lead compensation.

Q5: Is the module hot-swappable?

Yes—per site procedures, the 3500/60 can be replaced without powering down the rack.
