Main Features and Advantages

Multi-Channel Vibration Analysis: The BENTLY 136188-01 supports simultaneous monitoring of four critical points on rotating machinery, enabling comprehensive analysis of vibration patterns across multiple axes. This capability is essential for complex systems like multi-stage turbines, where multi-point data collection ensures accurate fault diagnosis for issues such as imbalance or misalignment.

 

Software-Defined Configuration: Users can tailor the module’s settings via BENTLY’s proprietary software, adjusting alarm levels, filter types (low-pass/band-pass), and data sampling rates to match specific machinery requirements. This flexibility eliminates the need for hardware modifications, streamlining system deployment in diverse industrial environments from offshore platforms to manufacturing plants.

 

Rugged Industrial Design: Constructed with an IP23-rated metal enclosure and anti-vibration mounting brackets, the module withstands harsh conditions, including high temperatures, humidity, and mechanical stress. Its self-shielded design minimizes electromagnetic interference, ensuring reliable measurements even in dense industrial installations with multiple active components.

 

Real-Time Data Integration: The RS-485 interface enables real-time transmission of vibration data to higher-level control systems, supporting remote monitoring and predictive maintenance. Engineers can access live diagnostics and historical trend data via SCADA platforms, allowing proactive intervention before equipment failures occur and reducing unplanned downtime.

 

Modular System Scalability: As part of the 3500 Series, the BENTLY 136188-01 can be combined with other modules (e.g., temperature monitors, power supplies) to create a fully integrated protection system. This scalability allows for easy expansion, from small-scale setups to large industrial complexes, ensuring adaptability as operational needs evolve.

Application Areas

The BENTLY 136188-01 is widely deployed in industries where precise vibration monitoring is critical to operational reliability:

 

  1. Oil and Gas:
    • Monitors compressors and pumps in refineries and pipeline networks, detecting early signs of cavitation or bearing wear to prevent unplanned shutdowns. In offshore platforms, it integrates with emergency shutdown systems (ESD) to ensure safety during extreme operational conditions.
  2. Power Generation:
    • Analyzes vibration in steam turbines and generators to optimize performance and prevent stator-rotor contact in power plants. It supports condition-based maintenance programs by providing real-time data on rotor dynamics, enabling scheduled repairs to minimize downtime and enhance energy production efficiency.
  3. Manufacturing:
    • Controls vibration in high-speed packaging machinery and robotic arms, enhancing product quality and reducing production losses in automotive and pharmaceutical plants. It also monitors motor bearings in conveyor systems to predict maintenance needs, improving overall equipment effectiveness (OEE).
  4. Water/Wastewater Treatment:
    • Ensures reliable operation of centrifugal pumps by detecting imbalance or misalignment, maintaining consistent water flow in treatment facilities. It integrates with SCADA systems for remote monitoring of distributed pump stations, enabling proactive maintenance scheduling and regulatory compliance.

Installation and Maintenance

Pre-installation Preparation:
Before installing the BENTLY 136188-01, ensure the following:

 

  • Verify the power supply meets 24 VDC ±10% and that the control rack is properly grounded to prevent electrostatic discharge (ESD). Use a multimeter to confirm voltage stability and ground continuity before connecting the module.
  • Use BENTLY’s configuration software to define input channel types (proximity probe or accelerometer) and set initial alarm thresholds based on machinery specifications. This includes configuring filter parameters to match the operational frequency range of the monitored equipment.
  • Mount the module in a 19″ rack with at least 50 mm of clearance for airflow, securing it with the provided brackets to minimize vibration-induced displacement. Ensure cable routing avoids high-voltage lines to prevent EMI interference.

 

Maintenance Recommendations:

 

  • Routine Inspections: Monthly visual checks of front-panel LEDs (green for normal operation, red for faults) and cleaning of dust from ventilation slots to maintain optimal cooling. Use a static-free brush to remove debris without damaging internal components.
  • Calibration: Annual calibration of input channels using a BENTLY-certified vibration calibrator to ensure measurement accuracy. This involves applying known vibration amplitudes and frequencies to verify output signals against industry standards.
  • Firmware Updates: Periodically update the module’s firmware via BENTLY’s software to access new diagnostic features, security patches, and compatibility improvements with newer system versions. Always backup configurations before updating.
  • System Testing: Biannual functional tests of alarm relays and communication protocols to ensure compliance with safety standards. Simulate vibration conditions to verify alarm triggers and data transmission reliability, documenting results for audit trails.
