Description
The BENTLY 3500/22M is a Bently Nevada 3500/22M Standard Transient Data Interface (TDI) Module. Here’s a breakdown of what you can expect based on publicly available resources:
Product Name: Bently Nevada 3500/22M Standard Transient Data Interface (TDI) Module
Product Description: This module acts as an interface between the Bently Nevada 3500 system rack and various sensors or monitoring modules. Its primary function is to capture and transmit short bursts of high-speed data (transient data) related to sudden machine vibration events. This data is then sent to the central processing unit within the 3500 system for analysis, enabling condition monitoring and protection of machinery.
Key Features:
- Captures and transmits transient vibration data.
- Connects to the backplane of a Bently Nevada 3500 system rack.
- Communicates with other monitoring modules using proprietary protocols (details in user manuals).
- Power consumption: 10.5 Watts [1]
- Front panel features:
- LED indicator to show when the module is operating correctly [1, 4].
- Rack reset button to clear latched alarms and reset the module [3, 5]
Finding Detailed Specifications:
The most accurate details will come from the user manuals or datasheets downloadable from Bently Nevada or authorized distributors:
- Bently Nevada Website: Search for “Bently Nevada 3500/22M” under “Product Literature” or “Downloads” on the Bently Nevada websitehile there might not be a dedicated product page, the user manuals for the 3500 system or the 3500/22M TDI Module should be available.
- User Manuals/Datasheets: Look for documents related to the Bently Nevada 3500 system, specifically mentioning the 3500/22M Standard TDI Module. These documents will contain the most accurate details, including:
- Supported Communication Protocols: The specific protocols used for communication with other system components.
- Data Transfer Rates: The speed at which the TDI module can transmit transient data.
- Input/Output Specifications: Details about connections for receiving transient data from sensors and transmitting it to the system.
- Power Requirements (usually around 10.5 Watts)
- Operating Temperature Range
- Dimensions and Weight
- Safety and Regulatory Compliance Information (e.g., CE, UL)
Optional Channel Enabling Disk:
The user manuals might mention an optional Channel Enabling Disk that can be used with the 3500/22M Standard TDI Module. This disk can enable capturing not only transient data (sudden events) but also steady-state vibration data for continuous monitoring.
Additional Notes:
- The “M” in the model number (3500/22M) likely signifies it’s the standard variant for transient data capture. Bently Nevada might offer other variants with different functionalities (e.g., 3500/22 for a discontinued Rack Interface Module).
- If considering this module for an existing 3500 system, ensure compatibility. Upgrading from a 3500/20 Rack Interface Module (RIM) to a 3500/22M TDI Module might require checking with Bently Nevada for compatibility with your specific system configuration.
By consulting the user manuals, you’ll have the most precise information for using the BENTLY Nevada 3500/22M effectively within your Bently Nevada 3500 system.
