Description

The Bently Nevada 169459-01 is a vibration monitoring I/O module designed for aeroderivative gas turbine vibration monitoring systems within the 3500 Machinery Protection System. Installed in a full-height rear slot of the 3500 rack, it serves as the rear interface card for the 3500/44M Aeroderivative GT Vibration Monitor. The module processes field signals from Proximitor sensors, Velomitors, and accelerometers with a high input impedance. Onboard internal termination headers allow direct wiring connection, accepting contact inputs for machine mode switching to alter alert and danger alarm parameter sets, while sending current outputs through 4 to 20 mA recorder channels.

Features

  • Integrates directly into a single full-height rear slot of the 3500 system rack
  • Features internal termination headers with Euro-Style or Push-in-Spring connector options for direct transducer and system wiring
  • Interfaces with Proximitor sensors, Velomitor sensors, and accelerometers for aeroderivative gas turbine monitoring
  • Supports multimode machine operation by accepting external mode switching contacts to toggle between up to eight alarm parameter sets
  • Provides dedicated +4 to +20 mA recorder output channels proportional to overall monitor full-scale values

Applications

  • Aeroderivative gas turbine machinery protection and vibration monitoring
  • Dynamic signal processing for Proximitor, Velomitor, and accelerometer transducer loops
  • Multi-mode machine operation tracking with automated alarm setpoint switching
