Usually called 3500/61 temperature monitor card, installed in Bently Nevada 3500 Machinery Protection System. It’s a 6-channel temperature module, often chosen over 3500/60 when more output and system integration are needed.
Input Type - supports both:
- RTD temperature measurement
- Thermocouple (TC) monitor
Works fine in mixed sensor setups, common in turbine and rotating equipment packages.
Output & Integration
- 4–20 mA proportional outputs to DCS / PLC
- Buffered analog outputs for local diagnostics
- Integration via 3500/22M TDI, configured through 3500/01 software
- Can work with 133819-01 I/O module depending on rack design
Function Role
Basically used as a temperature protection module / isolated input monitor inside machinery protection system. Focus is stability, noise resistance, and reliable long-term signal handling.
Typical Applications
- bearing temperature monitoring
- winding temperature protection
- steam turbine instrumentation
- gas turbine protection
- motor & generator protection
- general industrial rotating machinery
Often part of API 670 compliant systems in power plants and heavy industry.
Amikon is a company specializing in industrial automation spare parts, dedicated to providing efficient, stable, and reliable supply services for global industrial clients.
At Amikon, communication is kept simple and fast. Whether it’s product inquiries, stock checks, or urgent sourcing, the team usually responds quickly and keeps things clear, so customers don’t have to go back and forth too much.
The focus is mainly on industrial automation spare parts, including PLC modules, DCS system components, drives, sensors, and industrial controllers. They also handle a lot of discontinued or hard-to-find spare parts, which are quite common in older systems still running in the field.
Typical industries include:
- power generation and energy
- petrochemical plants
- manufacturing
- general industrial automation
With a global sourcing network and some regular stock on hand, Amikon can usually support a wide range of brands and models. For urgent requirements, they try to move fast. For project orders, they can also follow longer schedules—it’s fairly flexible depending on the situation.
Supply channels are checked before shipment, not just random sourcing. There’s also basic after-sales support, like product confirmation or replacement suggestions if needed. The idea is pretty straightforward—help reduce downtime and keep equipment running more steadily.
A1: Basically it’s a temperature card with 6 channels, used inside the 3500 system. It reads RTDs or thermocouples and keeps tracking temperature all the time. If something goes out of range, it gives alarms. In a lot of plants, it’s tied into protection logic, not just monitoring.
A2: The main thing people care about is the output. 3500/61 has built-in 4–20 mA outputs, so you can send signals directly to DCS or PLC. With 3500/60, you usually need extra transmitters, so in real projects 61 is just easier to use.
A3: Pretty flexible. RTDs like 100Ω platinum, copper, nickel types are all fine, and also thermocouples like E, J, K, T. Each channel can be set separately in the configuration software, so mixing sensors is actually quite common.
A4: Yeah, that’s one reason people use it. If you match it with the right I/O module, like the isolated version, it helps reduce interference and ground loop problems. In real plants, that kind of stability matters a lot.
A5: Usually yes. It has buffered outputs for each channel, so you can hook up test equipment and check signals while the system is still running. No need to interrupt protection, which is important for critical machines.
A6: Yes, it won’t work by itself. You need a matching I/O module at the back of the rack. Most people use either 133819-01 or 133819-02, depending on how the wiring is done. Just make sure you match it correctly, otherwise signals or 4–20 mA outputs may not behave properly.
