Overview

The Bently Nevada 86739-01 Dual Vibration Monitor is a specialized monitoring module designed to provide continuous protection for critical rotating machinery. It measures and analyzes vibration signals from two independent channels, enabling precise diagnostics for turbines, compressors, pumps, and motors. Moreover, the dual-channel design enhances system reliability by allowing simultaneous monitoring of multiple machine parameters.

Built to meet API 670 standards, the 86739-01 is trusted in demanding industrial environments such as power generation, oil and gas, petrochemical, and heavy manufacturing, where uninterrupted monitoring is essential for safety and efficiency. In addition, its modular rack-mounted design ensures easy integration into existing Bently Nevada monitoring systems.

Technical Data

Typical Applications

• Turbine monitoring systems in power plants, ensuring accurate vibration diagnostics across multiple channels.

• Compressor and pump monitoring in petrochemical facilities, protecting critical rotating equipment.

• Oil and gas refineries, where dual-channel monitoring prevents catastrophic failures.

• Heavy manufacturing plants, supporting condition monitoring for motors, gearboxes, and production machinery.

For instance, in a gas turbine installation, the 86739-01 Dual Vibration Monitor simultaneously tracks casing vibration and shaft vibration, enabling operators to detect imbalance or bearing wear before failures occur.
