Description

The Bently Nevada 3500/72M Recip Rod Position Monitor is a four-channel module that accepts inputs from proximity transducers. It conditions these signals to provide accurate dynamic and static rod position measurements and continuously compares the values with user-programmable alarm setpoints to ensure reliable compressor protection.

The Bently Nevada 3500/72M Recip Rod Position Monitor allows users to configure each channel through the 3500 Rack Configuration Software. Each channel can be programmed to measure rod position, rod drop, or hyper-compressor performance, providing flexible and precise monitoring for reciprocating compressor applications.
