BENTLY NEVADA 3500/53-03-00 Electronic Overspeed Detection System
1. Product Description
The BENTLY NEVADA 3500/53-03-00 is a high-reliability electronic overspeed detection system designed for critical rotating machinery, such as turbines, compressors, and generators. As part of the 3500 Series, it integrates advanced monitoring and protection capabilities to prevent catastrophic failures caused by excessive speed. The module supports three independent channels for redundant speed measurement, ensuring accurate tripping signals even in harsh industrial environments. It accepts inputs from proximity probes or magnetic pickups, provides configurable alarm thresholds, and offers Ethernet/Modbus connectivity for seamless integration with distributed control systems (DCS) or plant asset management platforms.
