Applications

The table on page 5 summarizes the enormous selection of measurement types available in 3500. This allows it to be applied to an extremely wide range of rotating and reciprocating machinery in many industries. Below are just a few of the more common applications that can be easily addressed by the 3500 System.• Steam turbines• Hydraulic industrial turbines• Industrial gas turbines • Aeroderivative gas turbines • Reciprocating compressors • Centrifugal compressors • Axial compressors• Screw compressors• Gears • Turbo-expanders • Horizontal and vertical centrifugal pumps• Reciprocating pumps • Electric motors • Generators• Fans • Blowers • Agitators • Mixers • Centrifuges • Pulp refiners • Ball mills • Crushers/pulverizers • Extruders• Pelletizers • Cooling tower/heat exchanger fans If your specific machine doesn’t appear on the list, just ask us. Chances are, our applications engineers have already developed a solution that’s right for you. And, with our extensive custom applications capabilities, we can easily modify off-the-shelf 3500 solutions to handle your nonstandard applications and signal processing requirements.
