Bently Nevada 3500/15-05-05-01 Power Supply

Technical Specifications and Hardware Overview

The Bently Nevada 3500/15-05-05-01 operates as a power supply module for the 3500 series machinery monitoring system. This module measures 241 mm in height, 50 mm in width, and 210 mm in depth for standard rack mounting. It weighs approximately 1.4 kilograms, which ensures stable mechanical integration within the chassis.

The module operates with a typical efficiency of 87% for reduced power waste. The unit supports redundant power supply configurations for high availability systems. The operating temperature range spans -20°C to 65°C for harsh industrial environments. Storage temperatures extend from -40°C to 85°C without causing component damage. Humidity tolerance covers 5% to 95% non-condensing conditions.

Power Conversion and Protection Features

This power supply converts AC input to stable DC outputs with 87% efficiency. It provides 24 V DC at 2.5 A for all 3500 series rack modules. The Bently Nevada 3500/15-05-05-01 maintains output regulation within ±2% under varying loads. It uses a flyback converter topology with active power factor correction. The unit features a soft-start circuit to limit inrush current during power-on. It includes comprehensive protection against overvoltage and overcurrent faults. The module supports hot-swappable replacement for maintenance without system shutdown.

Installation and Reliability Data

The 3500/15-05-05-01 mounts into a dedicated slot within the 3500 series rack. It connects directly to the backplane for power distribution to modules. The unit provides 30 ms of hold-up time to bridge momentary power interruptions. It delivers a mean time between failures of 200,000 hours for dependability. The module carries CE, ATEX, and UL certifications for global deployment. It passes vibration testing at 10 to 55 Hz with 0.15 mm amplitude. The unit withstands shock loads up to 5 g for 30 ms duration.
