Introduction
The assembly 3500/45-01-00 135137-01 is a Temperature Monitor and its associated RTD Input Card for the Bently Nevada 3500 Machinery Protection System. The 3500/45 is a dedicated monitor chassis designed to oversee the temperature of critical machine components, such as bearings. Paired with the 135137-01 input card, it is specifically configured to accept signals from RTDs (Resistance Temperature Detectors). This system provides continuous temperature monitoring, alerting operators to overheating conditions that could lead to equipment failure, and can initiate alarms or shutdowns to protect the machinery.

Application Scenarios
This temperature monitoring assembly is crucial for protecting machinery from thermal damage across various industries.
Bearing Temperature Monitoring:
The primary application is monitoring the temperature of journal and thrust bearings on critical equipment like turbines, compressors, large pumps, and motors. A rising temperature is a key indicator of lubrication failure, bearing wear, or overload.
Winding Temperature Monitoring:
Used to monitor the stator winding temperatures in large electric motors and generators using embedded RTDs, providing early warning of insulation breakdown or overloading.
Process and Lube Oil Temperature:
Can be configured to monitor the temperature of lube oil, seal oil, or other process fluids, ensuring they are within safe operating limits for the machinery.
API 670 Compliant Machinery Protection:
Serves as the monitoring and alarm unit for temperature channels in a machinery protection system designed to meet API 670 standards, providing reliable and standardized protection.
Plant-Wide Critical Temperature Points:
Deployed in 3500 racks to provide a centralized and highly reliable system for monitoring all critical temperature points on a machine or within a unit, feeding data and alarms directly to the plant's DCS.
