The 3500/42M is a Proximitor Seismic Monitor component developed by Bently Nevada. It is a four-channel monitor with proximity and seismic sensor inputs. It compares the conditioned signal to a user-programmable alarm and conditions the signal to produce vibration and position readings. The 3500 Rack Configuration Software can be used to program each channel to monitor and report radial vibration, thrust position, REBAM, acceleration, differential expansion, eccentricity, velocity and other parameters.

3500/42M Technical Features

 

enter
Accepts signals from one to four proximity, acceleration, or speed sensors.
Power consumption 7.7 watts.

output
The OK LED is on when the Monitor module is functioning normally.
The TX/RX LED illuminates when the Seismic Monitor module is connected to other modules in the 3500 rack.
The Bypass LED will illuminate if the Seismic Monitor is in bypass mode.
Buffer Sensors: Each channel has its own coaxial connector on the front of the monitor. Each connector has built-in short-circuit protection.
