Bently Nevada 3500/45 135137-01 Position I/O Module

Bently Nevada 3500/45 135137-01 Position I/O Module

The Bently Nevada 3500/45 135137-01, also cataloged as the 3500/45 Position I/O Module, operates as a dedicated hardware component for position signal acquisition, conditioning, and alarm comparison within the Bently Nevada 3500 monitoring system.

Hardware Specifications

Eddy-Current Probe Scaling and Rotor Position Signal Processing

The Bently Nevada 3500/45 135137-01 Position I/O Module is a four-channel instrument designed for position measurement signal processing within the 3500 monitoring platform. The module accepts input from proximity transducers, Rotary Position Transducers (RPTs), DC Linear Variable Differential Transformers (DC LVDTs), AC Linear Variable Differential Transformers (AC LVDTs), and rotary potentiometers.

The module conditions incoming position signals and compares processed values against user-programmable alarm settings. The 3500/45 configuration allows channels to be assigned for position monitoring applications requiring measurement conversion and alarm evaluation.

The module supports input signal formats including 4-20 mA and 0-10 V. Signal processing parameters and alarm settings are configured through the Bently Nevada 3500 Rack Configuration Software.
