Product Overview
The Bently Nevada 126648-02 Isolated Keyphasor I/O Module is an advanced signal interface component within the 3500 Machinery Protection System. It provides reliable signal isolation for Keyphasor inputs, enabling safe connection to multiple monitoring and control systems without interference or ground loops.
This module is primarily optimized for Magnetic Pickup applications but also supports Proximitor® sensors when an external power supply is available. Moreover, its rugged construction ensures stable performance across a wide temperature range, ideal for industrial environments with fluctuating conditions.
Functional Advantages
The 126648-02 module enhances monitoring accuracy while preventing signal distortion between interconnected systems. It ensures Keyphasor data integrity, which is essential for accurate shaft speed and position measurement in rotating machinery.
Key Benefits:
- Provides full galvanic isolation for Keyphasor signals.
- Reduces ground loop issues in parallel monitoring configurations.
- Supports Magnetic Pickup and Proximitor® sensors (with external power).
- Operates reliably from -30°C to +65°C in harsh industrial setups.
- Compact size simplifies installation and module replacement.
In addition, it offers phase measurement capability, although with slightly increased phase shift compared to the non-isolated version—making it best suited for speed rather than phase-critical applications.
