1. Product Overview: Bently Nevada 3500/92 136180-01
Product Description
The Bently Nevada 3500/92 Communication Gateway Module (Part Number: 136180-01) is an industrial-grade communication interface used within the 3500 series machinery protection and condition monitoring system. Its main function is to serve as a data bridge between the 3500 monitoring rack and external systems such as DCS, PLC, or SCADA platforms. It supports a range of standard communication protocols including Modbus TCP, Modbus RTU, and Bently Nevada proprietary protocols, providing both Ethernet (TCP/IP) and serial interfaces (RS-232, RS-422, RS-485).
It allows users to access machine data (vibration, temperature, proximity, alarms, etc.) from each module in the rack, as well as system status, time-stamped alarms, and health indicators, through a unified gateway. This device is especially vital for real-time data transmission, predictive maintenance, and system-wide integration.
