The 3500/65 145988-02 is a 16-channel temperature monitor manufactured by Bently Nevada. The 172103-01 is its supporting RTD / isolated tip thermocouple I/O module. The two work together for temperature monitoring and control of industrial equipment.
Product Functions: It has a 16-channel temperature monitoring function and can receive temperature input signals from Resistance Temperature Detectors (RTDs) and Isolated Tip Thermocouples (TCs). It can be flexibly configured through the 3500 rack configuration software to accept different types of inputs, such as isolated tip thermocouples, 3-wire RTDs, 4-wire RTDs, or combinations thereof. In a Triple Module Redundancy (TMR) configuration, three adjacent monitors need to be installed in a group, and two voting methods are used to ensure accurate operation and avoid single-point failures. After conditioning the input signals, they are compared with user-programmable alarm setpoints to achieve temperature abnormality monitoring and early warning.

- Power Consumption: 3 watts.
- Sensor Signals: Accepts 1–16 RTD or isolated tip TC sensor signals.
- Input Impedance: Greater than 1MΩ for each lead.
- Sensor Types: Supports multiple sensor types with different temperature measurement ranges.
- Front Panel Indicators: OK, TX/RX, Bypass, and other LED indicators for device status monitoring.
- RTD Current Source: 913±7µA at 25°C per sensor (1 power supply for 4-wire RTD, 2 power supplies for 3-wire RTD).
- Calibration: Set at 25°C (77°F), full-scale range of each channel can be field-configured via 3500 configuration software without manual calibration.
- Resolution: 1°C or 1°F, with different accuracy levels for different sensor types.
- Alarm Thresholds: Configurable via software for Alert and Danger levels, ranging from 0–100% of the full-scale measurement value. Software restricts settings beyond the sensor range.
- Alarm Accuracy: Within 0.13% of the expected value, supporting both under-alarm and over-alarm settings.
- Delay Time: Programmable via software:
- Alert delay: 1–60 seconds (1-second increments).
- Danger delay: 1–60 seconds (0.5-second increments).
- Operating Temperature: -30°C to +65°C (-22°F to +150°F).
- Storage Temperature: -40°C to +85°C (-40°F to +185°F).
- Main Module:
- Dimensions: 241.3mm x 24.4mm x 241.8mm (9.50 in x 0.96 in x 9.52 in).
- Weight: 0.91kg (2.0 lbs).
- Rack Space: Occupies 1 full-height front slot.
- I/O Module:
- Dimensions: 241.3mm x 24.4mm x 99.1mm (9.50 in x 0.96 in x 3.90 in).
- Weight: 0.45kg (1.0 lbs).
- Rack Space: Occupies 1 full-height rear slot.


When adding the 3500/65 to an existing 3500 system, ensure the following components meet the minimum firmware and software versions:
Component Name | Minimum Version Requirement |
---|
3500/22 Module Firmware | Revision 1.50 |
3500/01 Software | Version 3.85 |
3500/93 Module Firmware | Revision 2.02 |
System 1 Software | Revision 5.2 + Service Pack 2 or higher |
3500/02 Software | Not supported |
3500/03 Software | Not supported |
Note: Using 3500/65 with 3500/02 or 3500/03 software may cause abnormal software operation.
- Internal terminal I/O modules (e.g., 172103-01) cannot use external terminal blocks.
- When ordering external terminal I/O modules (e.g., 172109-01), purchase external terminal blocks (e.g., 172115-01) and cables (e.g., 134544-AAAA-BB) separately.
For 4-wire RTD applications, the I/O module must include "Modification 179952-01". Refer to the 3500/65 User Guide for details.
- AA (I/O Module Type):
- 01: RTD/Isolated Tip TC I/O module with internal terminals
- 02: RTD/Isolated Tip TC I/O module with external terminals
- BB (Agency Certification Options):
- 00: No certification
- 01: CSA/NRTL/C certification
- 02: CSA/ATEX certification (only for AA=01 modules)
- External terminal block: Model 172115-01, suitable for RTD/isolated tip TC with European connectors.
- Signal cable: Model 134544-AAAA-BB, where:
- AAAA: Cable length (e.g., 0005=5 ft, 0010=10 ft, etc.)
- BB: Assembly method (01 = Unassembled, 02 = Assembled)
- 172103-01: Internal terminal I/O module
- 172109-01: External terminal I/O module
- 172115-01: External terminal block
When replacing I/O modules (e.g., 172109-01 Rev D, 172103-01 Rev F), remove the module first and then upgrade the monitor firmware to the latest version. Failure to do so may trigger "I/O module mismatch" and "562 ADC fault" errors.
