The Bently Nevada (BN) 3500 Vibration Monitoring System, the latest vibration system from Bently Nevada, provides continuous, online vibration monitoring suitable for machinery protection applications.
The 3500 System rack design holds all 3500 monitor modules and rack power
supplies. It allows the various 3500 modules to communicate with one another
and the power supplies to distribute power to each module as required.
3500 Racks are available in two sizes:
1. Full-size Rack – 19-inch EIA rack with 14 available module slots
2. Mini-Rack – 12-inch rack with 7 available module slots
3500 racks are available in three formats:
1. Panel mount – This rack format is mounts to rectangular cut-outs in
panels, and secures to the panel using clamps supplied with the rack.
Wiring connections and I/O modules are accessible from the rear of the
rack.
2. Rack mount – This rack format is mounts the 3500 rack on 19-inch EIA
rails. Wiring connections and I/O modules are accessible from the rear
of the rack.
3. Bulkhead mount – This rack format mounts the rack against a wall or
panel when it is not possible to access the rear of the rack. Wiring
connections and I/O modules are accessible from the front of the rack.
The 3500/05 Mini-Rack is not available in this format.
The Power Supplies and Rack Interface Module must occupy the far left rack
positions. The remaining 14 rack positions (7 rack positions for the Mini-Rack)
are available for any combination of modules. If you plan to install internal
barriers in the 3500 rack, consult our document part number 141495-01,
Specifications and Ordering Information for 3500 Internal Barriers.

Ordering Considerations
• Racks with Internal Barriers installed require
a 3500/04-01 Internal Barrier Earthing
Module to provide the IS Earth connection to
the 3500/05 rack. This earthing module
requires a dedicated rack position.
• The 3500/93 System Display A01 System
Face Mount option is incompatible with the
3500/05 Mini-rack.
• The 3500/05 Mini-rack is not available in the
Bulkhead mount option.
• The 3500/06 Weatherproof housing is not
compatible with the 3500/05 Bulkhead
Mount option.
• When using a 3500 Mini-rack in an EIA rack,
a 144863-01 19-inch EIA Adapter Panel is
required.
• The 3500 Mini-rack requires Version 2.70 or
later of the 3500/01 Software.
