Main Features and Advantages
Eight-Channel Relay Switching: The BENTLY 3500/53 133396-01 supports 8 independent SPDT relays, enabling simultaneous control of multiple field devices such as valves, alarms, and shutdown systems. This high channel density reduces the need for additional modules, simplifying system architecture.
High-Current Capability: Each relay channel can switch up to 5 A at 250 VAC or 30 VDC, making it suitable for direct control of heavy loads like motor starters and solenoid valves. This capability eliminates the need for intermediate relays, reducing installation costs.
Fail-Safe Design: The module features latching relays with manual override capability, ensuring critical safety functions remain active even during power interruptions. This design is vital for emergency shutdown systems in oil refineries and power plants.
Advanced Diagnostics: Built-in LED indicators and fault reporting via the 3500 Series communication bus allow real-time monitoring of relay status, contact wear, and coil health. This proactive approach to maintenance minimizes unplanned downtime.
Modular System Integration: As part of the 3500 Series, the BENTLY 3500/53 133396-01 integrates seamlessly with other modules (e.g., vibration monitors, power supplies), forming a cohesive protection system. Its hot-swappable design enables maintenance without system shutdowns.

Before installing the BENTLY 3500/53 133396-01, 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.
- Use BENTLY’s configuration software to map relay outputs to specific alarm conditions (e.g., high vibration, low pressure) based on machinery safety protocols.
- 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.
Maintenance Recommendations:
- Routine Inspections: Monthly visual checks of front-panel LEDs (green for normal operation, red for faults) and physical relay contacts for signs of arcing or wear.
- Contact Resistance Testing: Annual measurement of relay contact resistance using a multimeter to ensure reliable switching. Replace relays if resistance exceeds 100 mΩ.
- Firmware Updates: Periodically update the module’s firmware via BENTLY’s software to access compatibility improvements with newer 3500 Series components.
