3500-05-02-04-00-00-00 custom-configured 2-channel vibration monitoring module

The BENTLY 3500-05-02-04-00-00-00 is a custom-configured 2-channel vibration monitoring module under Bently Nevada’s 3500 Series Rotating Machinery Protection & Monitoring System. Its hyphenated part number follows Bently’s modular configuration coding (breaking down into "series-function-channel-specification" segments), indicating it is optimized for dual-channel relative vibration monitoring of rotating equipment (e.g., turbines, compressors, pumps). It is designed to convert signals from eddy current proximity probes into measurable vibration parameters (e.g., peak-to-peak amplitude, RMS value) while providing programmable alarms and fault protection—critical for early detection of mechanical issues like rotor unbalance, misalignment, or bearing wear. Below is its comprehensive detailed information:

I. Part Number Decoding (Configuration Breakdown)

Bently’s 3500 Series uses hyphenated part numbers to define module functions and specifications. The 3500-05-02-04-00-00-00 can be decoded as follows to clarify its core configuration:

Segment	Code	Meaning
Series	3500	Belongs to Bently Nevada’s 3500 Series Rotating Machinery Protection System
Function Type	05	Vibration monitoring module (dedicated to relative/absolute vibration measurement)
Channel Count	02	2 independent monitoring channels (supports dual-probe setup for 1 shaft or 2 separate shafts)
Input Spec	04	Compatible with eddy current proximity probes (e.g., 3300XL 8mm/16mm series) with standard signal range (-24V to +10V DC)
Alarm Option	00	Basic dual-level alarm (Warning/Danger) with relay output (no advanced logic like cross-channel voting)
Output Spec	00	Standard 4-20mA analog output (1 per channel) + backplane digital signal output
Special Func	00	No optional features (e.g., no intrinsic safety certification, no extended temperature range)
