Bently Nevada 3500/22M-01-01-01 Transient Data Interface Module

Technical Specifications and Hardware Overview

The Bently Nevada 3500/22M-01-01-01 functions as a transient data interface module for the 3500 series 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 1.1 kilograms, which ensures stable mechanical integration within the chassis. The unit draws 0.4 A from a 24 V DC supply, consuming roughly 9.6 W under normal operational load. It features one Ethernet port for network connectivity and data transfer. The module includes one RS-232 serial port for local configuration and diagnostics.

It provides 4 MB of flash memory for firmware and configuration data storage. The unit contains 2 MB of RAM for transient data buffering and processing operations. It supports data transfer rates up to 10/100 Mbps on the Ethernet interface. The module captures time-synchronous and time-asynchronous waveform data from monitoring channels. It interfaces directly with the 3500 system backplane for module communication. The unit includes a built-in web server for remote data access and monitoring. 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.

Data Capture and Communication Features

This interface module acquires transient waveform data from connected monitor channels. It captures both time-synchronous and time-asynchronous data for comprehensive analysis. The Bently Nevada 3500/22M-01-01-01 stores captured data in 2 MB of onboard RAM. It transfers data to host systems via the 10/100 Mbps Ethernet port. The unit includes a built-in web server for browser-based remote monitoring. It supports Modbus TCP and OPC protocols for system integration flexibility. The module buffers data during network interruptions to prevent information loss.

Installation and Application Details

The 3500/22M-01-01-01 mounts into a 3500 series rack chassis slot. It connects to the backplane via a 48-pin interface connector. The module serves as a gateway between the monitoring system and plant networks. It delivers a mean time between failures of 150,000 hours. The unit carries CE and ATEX certifications for global deployment. It passes vibration testing at 10 to 55 Hz with 0.15 mm amplitude. The module withstands shock loads up to 5 g for 30 ms duration.
