Relay: Form C (fault alarm, configurable NO/NC)

Protection: Overvoltage, short‑circuit, thermal shutdown

Core Functions

Integrate RIM + high‑speed data acquisition in one module, replacing separate 3500/20 and communication processors.

Collect real‑time steady‑state and transient data from all M‑series monitors in the rack.

Transmit data via Ethernet (Modbus TCP/IP) or PROFIBUS‑DP to System 1 software for analysis and diagnostics.

Support transient event capture (pre‑/post‑alarm, speed‑triggered) with high sampling rates.

Enable local configuration via front‑panel USB‑B port.

Monitor rack health and report faults via LEDs and relay contact.

Hot‑swappable (in redundant power setups) for replacement without system shutdown.

Applications

Power Generation: Gas/steam turbines, generators, combined‑cycle plants (vibration monitoring, fault diagnosis).

Oil & Gas: Onshore/offshore compressors, pumps, fans, centrifuges (transient vibration analysis).

Petrochemical/Refining: Critical process machinery, motors, gearboxes (predictive maintenance).

Heavy Industry: Metallurgy, pulp & paper, mining (large rotating assets).

Condition Monitoring: System 1‑integrated sites requiring high‑speed transient data.

Usage & Maintenance

Installation: Insert into Slot 1 (leftmost, next to power supply); connect Ethernet/fiber and USB cables.

Configuration: Use front‑panel USB‑B with 3500 Configuration Software to set up communication and data acquisition parameters.

Maintenance: Inspect connectors annually; clean front‑panel LEDs/ports; no fans or consumables.

Status: Active; supported by Baker Hughes with full spare parts availability.
