Product Description

Overview

The Bently Nevada 286566-02 is a dual-channel tachometer module designed for demanding industrial environments. It precisely measures shaft speed, rotor acceleration, and rotor direction by receiving signals from proximity probes or magnetic pickups. The module features programmable alarm setpoints, which trigger alerts when measurements exceed predefined thresholds. With Modbus RTU communication and DIN rail mounting, it integrates seamlessly into industrial control systems.
