Description
1. Product Overview
BENTLY 137110-01 is a high-precision temperature monitoring module engineered by Bently Nevada (a Baker Hughes company), exclusively designed for the 3500 machinery health monitoring system to track critical temperature parameters of rotating equipment, bearings, and process components. As a specialized sensing module, BENTLY 137110-01 supports multiple temperature sensor types and delivers accurate, real-time data to detect overheating—a leading cause of machinery failure. In power plant steam turbine systems, BENTLY 137110-01 monitors bearing and lube oil temperatures to prevent lubrication breakdown; in refinery compressor stations, BENTLY 137110-01 tracks motor winding temperatures to avoid insulation damage and premature failure. Additionally, BENTLY 137110-01 integrates seamlessly with other 3500 modules (e.g., vibration, speed) to provide a holistic view of machinery health, enabling predictive maintenance and reducing unplanned downtime.

4. Application Fields & Cases
4.1 Application Fields
- Power Generation: Steam/gas turbine bearing temperature monitoring, generator stator winding temperature tracking, lube oil system temperature sensing
- Oil & Gas: Compressor motor winding temperature monitoring, pipeline pump bearing temperature detection, LNG plant cryogenic equipment temperature tracking
- Petrochemical: Refinery reactor jacket temperature monitoring, extruder barrel temperature sensing, chemical storage tank temperature control
- Manufacturing: Steel mill furnace temperature monitoring, paper mill dryer cylinder temperature tracking, cement plant kiln inlet temperature sensing
4.2 Typical Cases
- Gas Turbine Bearing Temperature Monitoring: A 500 MW combined-cycle power plant deployed BENTLY 137110-01 to monitor turbine bearing temperatures. The module detected a 3°C temperature rise in one bearing (caused by lubrication leakage) 48 hours before critical failure, enabling scheduled maintenance and avoiding a $2 million unplanned shutdown.
- Offshore Compressor Motor Protection: An offshore natural gas platform used BENTLY 137110-01 to track compressor motor winding temperatures. When the module detected an abnormal temperature spike (indicating insulation damage), it triggered an automatic shutdown, preventing a motor fire and ensuring continuous gas production.
- Refinery Reactor Temperature Control: A petrochemical refinery integrated BENTLY 137110-01 into its reactor system to monitor jacket and internal temperatures. The module’s high accuracy enabled precise process control, reducing product waste by 15% and extending reactor lifespan by 3 years.

6. Selection Suggestions & Precautions
6.1 Selection Suggestions
- Sensor Type Matching: BENTLY 137110-01 is ideal for mixed sensor environments (RTDs + thermocouples); for RTD-only applications, select Bently 137110-02 (cost-optimized single-sensor module).
- Temperature Range Needs: Choose thermocouple-compatible configurations for high-temperature applications (≥400°C); select RTD-focused versions for precision low-temperature monitoring (≤200°C).
- Environment & Safety: Opt for ATEX/IECEx-certified units for explosive zones (e.g., refineries, chemical plants); select IP65 enclosures for outdoor or dusty installations (e.g., mining facilities).
6.2 Precautions
- Sensor Wiring: Use twisted-pair, shielded cables for thermocouples (type-specific insulation) and 4-wire wiring for high-precision RTD measurements; ground shielding at the module end only to eliminate ground loops.
- Calibration Requirements: Calibrate BENTLY 137110-01 annually using a precision temperature calibrator (e.g., Fluke 9142); verify cold junction compensation accuracy in varying ambient temperatures.
- Maintenance Checks: Inspect sensor connections and terminal blocks every 6 months for corrosion or loose wiring; replace aging thermocouple cables (≥5 years old) to prevent signal degradation.
- Installation Guidelines: Mount BENTLY 137110-01 in the 3500 chassis with at least 5 cm clearance from power modules to avoid heat interference; avoid installation near direct heat sources (e.g., heaters, exhaust vents).
