The Bently Nevada 3500/32-01-02 is a versatile 4-channel relay module designed for the 3500 Monitoring System. Each relay channel operates independently and can be programmed using AND/OR logic to perform voting and alarm functions. Engineers deploy multiple 3500/32-01-02 modules in racks to the right of the Rack Interface Module, enabling customized control logic for alarms and machinery protection.
This full-height module integrates robust SPDT relays configured as DPDT, supporting both normally energized and normally de-energized operations. Each relay comes with built-in arc suppression, ensuring long-term reliability under industrial loads.
