Product Introduction
The Bently Nevada 3500/25 126648-02 Isolated Keyphasor I/O Module is a specialized component of the Bently Nevada 3500 Machinery Protection System. Designed to work in tandem with the 3500/25 Enhanced Keyphasor Module, this I/O card provides galvanic isolation for Keyphasor signals, enhancing the integrity of signal transmission and protecting the system against electrical disturbances.
The purpose of this isolated module is to receive input signals from proximity probes or magnetic pickups, condition those signals, and output them as clean, TTL-compatible square wave pulses. These pulses serve as a precise rotational phase reference for dynamic machinery analysis. The galvanic isolation ensures that transients or ground loop noise in the sensor wiring do not affect the integrity of data within the 3500 rack system.
With robust design and enhanced electrical insulation, the 126648-02 I/O module is essential in high-noise industrial environments and is ideal for applications involving turbines, compressors, and other critical rotating machinery.
