Module Overview
The Bently Nevada 147663-01 VGA Display I/O Module delivers real-time visualization for 3500 Series machinery protection systems. It connects to a standard VGA monitor, enabling interactive display and control through touch-screen operation.
Moreover, operators can access vibration, position, and system data instantly, ensuring precise machinery status awareness. In addition, the VGA monitor can be installed up to 10 meters away using standard cabling, providing flexible control room placement. Consequently, this design supports safer and more efficient field operation.
Functional Highlights
- Touch Screen Interface: Operators interact directly with live machinery data.
- Configurable Setup: Adjust language and display type using 3500 Rack Configuration Software.
- Nine Custom Screens: Display vibration, gap, or grouped machine train data.
- Status LEDs: OK and Bypass indicators ensure clear operational visibility.
- API-670 Format: Offers a “3300-style” bar graph and numeric values per monitor slot.
- Flexible Installation: VGA monitor can be positioned remotely without signal loss.
For instance, technicians can configure dedicated screens for radial vibration or shaft gap analysis, enhancing diagnostic precision. Furthermore, each setting can be modified locally, streamlining maintenance and reducing setup time.
