Product Description
The 3500/05-01-01-00-00-00 is a Radial Vibration Monitor Module from the Bently Nevada 3500 Monitoring System, a leading framework for machinery protection. This module is specifically designed to continuously monitor and process vibration signals from two eddy current proximity probes (typically X and Y directions) installed on a machine's radial bearings. It conditions these signals, provides continuous monitoring of both dynamic (vibration) and static (position) data, and generates programmable alarm (Alert and Danger) signals to protect critical machinery from damage due to excessive vibration or sudden failure conditions.
