Information

Overview Manuals Common Applications Product Precautions
The 172115-01 is a full-height plug-in installed at the front of a 3500 rack. Its core function is to receive raw sensor signals from the rear I/O modules of the rack, perform linearization processing, compensation calculations, and alarm comparisons through its internal microprocessor, and finally upload the data to the rack backplane bus.
    • Ultra-High Channel Densityt
    • Superior Noise Immunity
    • Advanced Alarm Logic
The Bently Nevada 3500/65 monitor provides 16 channels of temperature monitoring and accepts both resistance temperature detector (RTD) and isolated tip thermocouple (TC) temperature inputs. The monitor conditions these inputs and compares them against user-programmable alarm setpoints. The monitor is programmed using the 3500 Rack Configuration Software. You can configure the 16-Channel Temperature Monitor to accept isolated tip thermocouples, 3-wire RTD, 4-wire RTD, or a combination of TC and RTD inputs. In Triple Modular Redundant (TMR) configurations, you must install temperature monitors in groups of 3 adjacent monitors. In this configuration the monitor uses 2 types of voting to ensure accurate operation and to avoid single point failures.

 When using the 172115-01 (3500/65) module, ensure that the sensor type (RTD/TC) strictly matches the software configuration and follow proper shielding and grounding practices to eliminate electromagnetic interference. Due to its high channel density, prevent terminal short circuits during wiring; before replacing the module or adjusting parameters, always verify that related alarm interlock logic is in a safe bypass mode to prevent accidental machine trips.
