Bently Nevada 133323-01 3500 TMR Redundant Monitor

Description: The 3500/92 Communication Gateway module is a sophisticated component designed to enhance communication capabilities within the 3500 System. Its primary function is to provide extensive communication features for integrating monitored values and statuses with process control and automation systems.

Key Features:

1. Communication Capabilities:
   • Facilitates communication with process control and automation systems.
   • Supports both Ethernet TCP/IP and serial (RS232/RS422/RS485) communication capabilities.
2. Ethernet Connectivity:
   • Utilizes RJ45 connection for 10BASE-T star configuration Ethernet networks.
3. Supported Protocols:
   • Modicon® Modbus® protocol (via serial communications).
   • Modbus/TCP protocol, a variant of serial Modbus specifically for TCP/IP Ethernet communications.
   • Proprietary Bently Nevada protocol designed for communication with 3500 Rack Configuration and Data Acquisition Software packages.
4. Compatibility:
   • Retains support for communication interfaces, protocols, and features from the original 3500/90 module.
   • Exception: Primary value Modbus registers have been replaced with a Configurable Modbus Register Utility in the 3500/92.

Functionality: The 3500/92 module acts as a gateway, allowing seamless communication between the 3500 rack and external systems. It supports a variety of protocols, ensuring compatibility with different communication standards commonly used in industrial settings. The introduction of the Configurable Modbus Register Utility enhances flexibility and functionality, compensating for the absence of primary value Modbus registers.

Conclusion: The 3500/92 Communication Gateway Module serves as a crucial link between the 3500 System and external automation and control systems. Its versatile communication capabilities, support for multiple protocols, and integration-friendly design contribute to the overall efficiency and interoperability of the monitoring system.
