Bently Nevada 3500/62 163179‑03 Temperature Monitor Module

The Bently Nevada 3500/62 163179‑03 is a 16‑channel temperature monitor module designed for the 3500 machinery protection system. It accepts RTD and thermocouple signals and continuously measures equipment temperature to prevent overheating faults of rotating machinery in power and petrochemical plants.

This single‑slot monitoring board supports multiple temperature sensor types and high‑precision temperature conversion. It features programmable alarm setpoints and transmits temperature data and fault messages to the rack controller. It is widely stocked as original spare parts for turbomachinery monitoring cabinet maintenance, system retrofitting and field replacement.
