Product Overview

Core functions

The 330500 Velomitor piezoelectric velocity sensor is a special type of piezoelectric accelerometer that uses solid-state design and integrates embedded electronic components for measuring absolute vibration (relative to free space) of bearing seats, housings, or structures. It has no moving parts, avoiding mechanical degradation and wear, and can be installed vertically, horizontally, or at any angle.

Application points

Suitable for detecting vibration changes caused by common faults such as rotor imbalance and misalignment.

If the integral output is used to measure displacement, it should be noted that electrical noise may amplify and affect data accuracy. Therefore, it is necessary to choose the installation position, grounding, and shielding method reasonably to maximize amplitude and frequency response and reduce non actual vibration data interference.

We can provide engineering services to determine the optimal installation location. For more information, please visit Bently.com.

Product Overview

Core functions

The 515 lockout and testing module is a specialized testing device for GE Multilin relays, with main functions including:

Provide trip locking, relay isolation, and testing functions;

By turning on the switch and inserting the test plug, it is possible to monitor the phase current and residual current from the primary CT, or inject current into the relay through the secondary injection testing equipment during debugging;

Ensure that the CT (current transformer) is short circuited during testing to avoid high voltage hazards, while also isolating the output circuit of the trip relay to prevent false tripping.

main features 

Including a 14 pole switch group, the CT input automatically short circuits when the current switch is turned on;

Support injection of current in each phase, equipped with grounding terminals;

Intuitively isolate (disconnect) the output circuit of the trip relay and provide a protective cover;

Suitable for power and industrial scenarios, equipped with 515 test plugs.

Installation instructions

CT Connection and Safety Requirements

The module provides a short-circuit switch for connecting three-phase CTs and individual zero sequence ground fault CTs (or three-phase CTs used for residual ground fault detection);

Key safety point: The CT must be connected to the short-circuit side of the switch. When the CT switch is opened, the CT will be short circuited to avoid dangerous high voltage caused by CT open circuit.

PANEL MOUNT

The module consists of a metal chassis and a test switch, and needs to be installed by sliding it in from the front of the panel;

The panel needs to be cut according to the dimensions shown in Figure 3, and the module should be fastened by bending retaining tabs. If necessary, the accompanying # 8 screws and anti vibration nuts can be used for reinforcement;

After installation, fasten the front cover and rotate the fasteners at both ends by 1/4 turn to lock it in place;

There is a grounding screw at the bottom right corner of the module’s rear side, which needs to be connected to the panel chassis grounding.

Operating instructions

Switch configuration and function

There are a total of 14 switches, divided into two categories:

6 single pole switches (terminals 1-6 and 15-20): used to isolate relay output circuits, disconnect trip and auxiliary circuits, and achieve trip locking;

4 sets of dual switches (terminals 7-14 and 21-28): corresponding to A-phase, B-phase, C-phase currents and grounding currents, each set of switches is used for CT short circuit, test current injection, and CT current measurement.

The working logic of each set of dual switches:

The first switch (such as terminals 7 and 21): regardless of the switch status, the terminals are always short circuited;

The second switch (such as terminals 8 and 22) adopts a “close first, then open” design. When closed, the terminals are short circuited, and when opened, terminals 8-22 are open and 22 and 7-21 are short circuited (to achieve CT short circuit).

test process

Before testing: Disconnect the trip and auxiliary circuits to prevent accidental tripping, and then short-circuit the CT;

During testing: After turning on the switch, insert the test plug to inject signals or monitor CT current;

After testing: first close the CT switch to restore the normal operation of the relay, and then close the trip and auxiliary circuits.

Receiving and Processing Instructions

Receiving inspection

Visually inspect the system for any obvious transportation damage. If there is any damage, file a claim with the carrier and submit a copy to Bently Nevada, LLC.

Handling and storage precautions

The circuit board is susceptible to static damage and requires the use of a grounding strap (such as 3M Velostat) before operation ®  No.2060) Grounding: Avoid using tools/materials that are prone to static electricity, such as ungrounded soldering irons and non-conductive plastics.

Transport and storage of circuit boards require the use of conductive bags or foil, and special attention should be paid to static electricity accumulation in dry weather (humidity<30%).

When the system loses power, it will lose its mechanical protection function; When operating correctly, the module can be plugged in and out while powered on (see Chapter 4 for details).

Basic Information

System Overview

The 3500 monitoring system is used to continuously monitor the status of rotating and reciprocating machinery (such as imbalance, misalignment, shaft cracks, bearing failures, etc.) to improve factory safety, product quality, equipment availability, and reduce operating costs.

Core advantage: Enhanced operator information (providing multi-dimensional data, Windows) ®  Basic display software, better integration of factory control computers (multi protocol communication gateway, time synchronization data), reduced installation and maintenance costs (reduced wiring, backward compatibility, easy configuration), improved reliability (redundant power supply, TMR system), intrinsic safety options, multiple output interfaces (supporting multiple display and control systems).

General characteristics

Hot swappable module: When operated correctly, any module can be plugged in and out while the system is powered on, without affecting the operation of unrelated modules (plugging in and out of the power supply does not interrupt the system when dual power is available).

Internal and external terminals: External terminals are connected to I/O modules and terminal blocks through multi-core cables (suitable for narrow space areas); Internal terminals allow sensors to be directly connected to I/O modules (I/O modules with internal Zener barriers have no external terminals).

System components

Including a weatherproof enclosure (protecting the rack from moisture and dust), rack (full-size 19 inch/compact 12 inch Mini rack), power supply (half height module, supporting 1-2 redundant installations), Rack Interface Module (RIM, communicating with the host and other modules, maintaining event lists), communication gateway module (allowing external devices to access information), monitoring module (collecting sensor data), relay module (controlling relays based on channel status) Keyphasor ®  Modules (supplying power to sensors and processing signals), display modules (supporting multiple display devices), grounding modules (providing low impedance grounding, used in conjunction with internal barrier I/O modules), etc.

Relays and Safety Systems

Standard rack relay options: independent relay (each monitoring module is equipped with more than one relay module), bus relay (multiple monitoring channels share a single relay), Triple Modular Redundancy (TMR) system (high reliability configuration, triple redundancy function, avoiding single point failure).

Intrinsic safety internal barrier system: suitable for hazardous environments, needs to be used in conjunction with grounding modules, has strict installation restrictions (such as prohibiting the use of bus sensors, requiring isolation of RS-232 connections, etc.), and has characteristics such as dual IS grounding and safe/hazardous area wiring separation.

Initial rack installation

General installation process

Refer to the installation checklist (confirm conditions such as power supply, space, ventilation, grounding, etc.);

Install weatherproof casing (if required);

Install the rack;

Set rack jumpers and switches;

Install external terminal blocks (if necessary);

Install modules;

Connect sensors, relays, and power wiring;

Complete the software configuration for rack installation.

Key installation details

Weather resistant enclosure: Meets NEMA 4 requirements, not compatible with display units; Attention should be paid to temperature derating (due to limited ventilation), panel cut size, conduit fittings (to avoid mixing power and signal wiring), and air purification options (to meet specific pressure and flow requirements).

Rack installation: Ensure ventilation (minimum gap of 50.4mm between top and bottom), support panel installation, rack installation (19 inch EIA cabinet), Bulkhead installation, etc. Different installation types have specific size and fixing requirements.

Intrinsic safety operation: Ensure that the grounding resistance is less than 1 Ω, use 4-10mm ² cables to connect to the factory’s IS grounding, and use a single point grounding to avoid loops.

High electromagnetic noise/CE installation: The system rack, EMI shielding, and cables must be thoroughly grounded to shield all wiring out of the metal cabinet. CE installation must comply with EN61000.3.2 standard.

Module installation and removal

Installation steps

Power supply: First install the Power Input Module (PIM), configure single point grounding, connect the power cord (in a non powered state), then install the main module and tighten the screws.

Full height module: First install the I/O module (configuration options, fastening screws, connection wiring), and then install the main module (ensure that the ejectors are in place, inserted along the guide rail, and fastened).

Half height module: First install the half height card guide rail, then install the I/O module and main module, similar to the steps for full height modules.

Remove steps

After power off, loosen the module screws and use ejectors (full height) or screws as handles (half height/power) to pull out the module; The I/O module needs to remove the wiring first, and then loosen the screws to remove it.

Replace module

Main module: Save the configuration before removing the old module, reconfigure and verify after installing the new module.

I/O module: The main module and wiring need to be removed first, replaced, reconnected, and verified.

Maintenance

General maintenance

The internal components of the module cannot be repaired on site, and maintenance mainly involves testing whether the channel is normal and replacing faulty modules (spare parts are required).

Support live plugging and unplugging modules (follow the steps in Chapter 4), the system does not require calibration, but the functionality needs to be verified regularly.

Maintenance interval

The initial interval is 1 year; If the monitoring machine is a critical equipment or the rack is in an extreme temperature, high humidity, or corrosive environment, the interval needs to be shortened; Adjust the interval based on the verification results and ISO 10012-1 after each maintenance.
