Description
The Bently Nevada 3300/55 Dual Velocity Monitor is a critical component of the 3300 Series machinery protection system. This module is engineered to monitor casing vibration velocity by interfacing with Velomitor piezo-velocity sensors. It provides two independent channels of continuous vibration monitoring, comparing real-time input values against user-defined Alert and Danger setpoints to ensure the integrity of rotating equipment such as turbines, compressors, motors, and pumps.
Features
- Dual-channel velocity monitoring for redundant or multi-point machinery protection.
- Direct interface compatibility with Velomitor piezo-velocity sensors.
- Integrated alarm logic with dedicated Alert and Danger relay outputs.
- Proportional 4–20 mA output for integration with external PLC or DCS control systems.
- Designed for seamless integration into existing 3300 Series rack environments.
Applications
This monitor is widely utilized in heavy industrial environments for critical asset protection, including:
- Steam and gas turbine vibration monitoring.
- Centrifugal and reciprocating compressor casing vibration analysis.
- Large motor and pump bearing housing velocity measurement.
- Balance-of-plant rotating equipment requiring continuous vibration surveillance.
