Introduction
The component with part number 3500/22M 161580-01 is a monitoring module within the Bently Nevada* 3500 Machinery Monitoring System. This part number refers to the 3500/22M 4-Channel Analog Monitor.
This module is designed to monitor up to four analog DC voltage or current signals from a wide variety of process transducers. It converts these signals into engineering units and provides continuous surveillance and protection based on programmable alarm setpoints. It is a versatile module used to integrate non-vibration process parameters into the machinery protection framework.
*Bently Nevada is a part of Baker Hughes.

Application Scenarios
The 3500/22M Analog Monitor is deployed to monitor various auxiliary process parameters that are essential for the safe and reliable operation of machinery. Key application scenarios include:
Temperature Monitoring:
Accepting 4-20 mA signals from Resistance Temperature Detectors (RTDs) or thermocouple transmitters to monitor bearing temperatures, lube oil temperatures, or motor winding temperatures.
Pressure Monitoring:
Monitoring critical pressure points such as lube oil pressure, seal oil differential pressure, or discharge pressure to ensure they remain within safe operating limits.
Process and Position Monitoring:
Receiving DC voltage or current signals from transducers monitoring flow, level, or valve position, integrating these process values into the overall machinery protection scheme.
Integrated Machinery Protection:
Working in conjunction with other 3500 modules (like vibration and position monitors) to provide a comprehensive protection scheme. For example, if a bearing temperature (monitored by the 22M) exceeds its setpoint, it can trigger an alarm or a Danger shutdown to protect the machine.
Auxiliary Signal Interface:
Acting as a general-purpose interface to bring any standard analog signal from the field into the 3500 system for monitoring, alarming, and data logging.
Typical Machinery and Parameters Monitored:
Turbines & Compressors: Bearing Temperature, Lube Oil Pressure
Pumps & Motors: Bearing Temperature, Discharge Pressure
General: Case Expansion, Differential Expansion, Fuel Gas Pressure, and other critical process variables.
