Description ⚙️ Product Specifications Model Number: 3500/42M Part Number: 176449-02 Manufacturer: Bently Nevada (Baker Hughes) System Series: 3500 Machinery Protection System Module Type: Proximitor Seismic Monitor Function: Provides four channels of vibration and position monitoring Input Capability: Accepts signals from proximity probes and seismic transducers Interface: Standard 3500 rack backplane connection Status: Bently 3500/42M 176449-02 industrial monitoring component The 3500/42M 176449-02 is a sophisticated four-channel monitor designed to provide critical machinery protection by continuously comparing input signals against user-programmable alarm setpoints. By integrating proximity and seismic data, this module ensures comprehensive oversight of machine health, including radial vibration, thrust position, and casing acceleration, effectively preventing catastrophic equipment failure through real-time diagnostic reporting and relay activation in high-stakes industrial environments. �� Comparison with Similar Models The 176449-02 variant is specifically engineered with enhanced seismic signal processing capabilities compared to the standard 176449-01 model. While both modules utilize the same form factor for the 3500 rack, the -02 version includes improved low-frequency noise filtering, making it superior for monitoring rotating machinery with high background structural noise. Additionally, it features upgraded internal isolation components that offer higher immunity to electromagnetic interference (EMI) compared to older legacy monitors within the 3500/42 series. �� Recommended Bently Nevada 3500 Series Modules 3500/05 Instrument Rack 3500/22M Transient Data Interface 3500/25 Keyphasor Module 3500/32M 4-Channel Relay Module 3500/40M Proximitor Monitor 3500/45 Position Monitor 3500/50 Tachometer Module 3500/53 Electronic Overspeed Detection System 3500/60 Temperature Monitor 3500/92 Communication Gateway
