136294-01 Communication Processor 3500 System – Bently Nevada

Description of the 3500/45 Position Monitor:

The 3500/45 Position Monitor is a versatile 4-channel instrument designed to process input from various transducers, including proximity transducers, Rotary Position Transducers (RPTs), DC Linear Variable Differential Transformers (DC LVDTs), AC Linear Variable Differential Transformers (AC LVDTs), and rotary potentiometers. The monitor conditions the input signals and compares them with user-programmable alarms, providing a reliable solution for position measurements.

Key Features:

1. Input Compatibility:
   • Accepts input from a range of transducers, including proximity transducers, RPTs, DC LVDTs, AC LVDTs, and rotary potentiometers.
2. Conditioning and Comparison:
   • Conditions the input signals and performs comparisons with user-programmable alarms to ensure accurate monitoring.
3. Programmable Channels:
   • Each of the four channels can be individually programmed using the 3500 Rack Configuration Software to perform specific functions.
4. Measurement Functions:
   • Supports various measurement functions, including Axial (thrust) Position, Differential Expansion, Standard Single Ramp Differential Expansion, Non-standard Single Ramp Differential Expansion, Dual Ramp Differential Expansion, Complementary Differential Expansion, and Valve Position.
5. Configurability:
   • Configurable through the 3500 Rack Configuration Software, allowing users to tailor the monitor’s settings to meet specific application requirements.

Reference Materials:

• Refer to the documentation for Transducer Types for Position Measurements, Figures and Graphs, and I/O Modules for AC LVDTs and Rotary Potentiometers for additional guidance.

The 3500/45 Position Monitor provides a reliable and configurable solution for monitoring and safeguarding critical equipment by precisely measuring and analyzing positional data.
