Bently Nevada 1900/65A General Purpose Equipment Monitor Module

This general-purpose monitor module provides continuous protection for a wide range of industrial machinery. It accepts various sensor inputs including vibration, speed, temperature, and process parameters. The module offers flexible configuration to suit different equipment types and applications.

Monitoring Capabilities and Input Configuration

The Bently Nevada 1900/65A 167699-02 supports up to four channels of input for comprehensive machinery protection. It accepts accelerometer, velocity, proximity, and temperature inputs based on specific requirements. The module provides both 4-20 mA analog outputs and digital relay outputs for control and annunciation. Each channel can operate independently, allowing mixed-sensor configurations for complete machine monitoring. A local LCD display provides real-time data and status indicators for easy on-site interpretation.

Technical Specifications

System Integration and Communication

The module integrates with DCS and PLC systems via 4-20 mA outputs and relay contacts. Modbus RTU communication enables data collection from remote monitoring systems. The ability to mix sensor types reduces the total number of modules required for a machine train. The local display provides a convenient interface for setup and diagnostics without a separate programming terminal.

Application Use

This monitor serves compressors, pumps, motors, and small turbines across many industries. It suits applications with limited budget or where full 3500 monitoring systems are unnecessary. The module’s versatility makes it a popular choice for general plant protection. Industries include chemical processing, power generation, water treatment, and manufacturing facilities.
