The Bently Nevada 79482-01 functions as a high-integrity Relay Output Module within the 3500 Series Machinery Protection System. This module translates digital logic signals from the 3500 backplane into physical contact closures, driving critical alarm annunciation and emergency machinery trip functions. It serves as the primary interface for triggering protective actions, such as shutting down a turbine or compressor when sensors detect hazardous vibration or thrust levels. By providing reliable electrical switching for safety circuits, the 79482-01 ensures that automated protection protocols execute immediately upon the detection of abnormal operating conditions.

The 79482-01 provides hardware-based safety solutions for mission-critical industrial assets:
Configurable Trip Logic: The module allows engineers to assign individual relays to specific alarm conditions across the 3500 rack. This flexibility supports complex "Voting Logic" (e.g., 2-out-of-2), reducing the risk of false trips while maintaining strict machinery protection.
Superior Electrical Isolation: Internal circuitry isolates the relay channels from the system backplane. This prevents high-voltage spikes or electromagnetic interference (EMI) on the field-side wiring from damaging the central processing electronics of the 3500 system.
Deterministic Output Execution: Unlike software-based communication protocols, these physical relay contacts provide a nearly instantaneous response. This ensures that the time between a "Danger" alarm detection and the final trip contact closure remains within millisecond thresholds.
Industrial-Grade Durability: Bently Nevada designed the 79482-01 to withstand the extreme temperatures and continuous vibration of power generation and petrochemical facilities. The robust Form C relays maintain contact integrity even after years of continuous energized service.
Is this Bently Nevada 79482-01 module 100% Brand New?
Yes. We supply the 79482-01 in 100% Brand New and Original condition. Each module arrives in factory-sealed anti-static packaging, ensuring it meets all original OEM performance specifications for safety-critical circuits.
Can I use the 79482-01 in both 3300 and 3500 series racks?
The 79482-01 is specifically engineered for the 3500 Series Machinery Protection System. While it shares architectural similarities with 3300 components, it requires the 3500 rack backplane and configuration software to function correctly.
Does the module support "Fail-Safe" configurations?
Yes. You can configure the relays as "Normally Energized" or "Normally De-energized" through the 3500 Rack Configuration Software. Selecting the "Normally Energized" state ensures the machinery trips if the protection system loses power, providing a fail-safe shutdown path.
What maintenance is required for the relay contacts?
Under normal operation, the 79482-01 requires no active maintenance. However, we recommend a functional "Trip Test" during scheduled facility outages to verify that the relay contacts cycle correctly and that the external shutdown solenoids or annunciators respond as intended.
