Bently Nevada 3500/15-05-00 AC/DC Power Supply Module

Bently Nevada 3500/15-05-00 AC/DC Power Supply Module

The Bently Nevada 3500/15-05-00 is a high-reliability dual-input power supply module engineered to deliver uninterrupted power to complete 3500 series monitoring racks. Designed for critical rotating machinery applications, this module accepts both AC and DC input sources, ensuring continuous operation even during primary power disruptions.

Technical Specifications

• Model Number: 3500/15-05-00
• Input Voltage: AC 100-240V / DC 88-300V
• Output Power: 40W continuous per rack
• Operating Temperature: -30 °C to +65 °C (-22 °F to +149 °F)
• Compliance: API 670, ISO 20816, CE certified
• Mounting: Single-slot rack module
• Weight: 1.39 kg (3.06 lbs)
• MTBF: >100,000 hours at 40 °C

Key Features & Benefits

• Dual Redundant Inputs: Automatic failover between AC and DC sources eliminates single-point power failures
• Universal Voltage Range: Operates globally without voltage selection switches or external adapters
• Hot-Swappable Design: Replace modules without shutting down the monitoring system
• Diagnostic LEDs: Real-time status indication for AC OK, DC OK, and output fault conditions
• Overvoltage Protection: Built-in surge suppression safeguards downstream monitoring modules
• Factory Calibrated: Each unit tested to OEM specifications with traceable certification

Application Scenarios

This power supply module is essential for:

• Steam and gas turbine vibration monitoring systems in power generation facilities
• Compressor train protection in oil & gas processing plants
• Pump and motor monitoring in water treatment and chemical manufacturing
• Critical machinery surveillance in pulp & paper mills
• Offshore platform rotating equipment protection systems

Installation & Integration

The 3500/15-05-00 installs in the leftmost slot of any 3500 series rack configuration. Each rack requires one power supply module, though dual-module configurations are recommended for mission-critical applications. The module interfaces seamlessly with all 3500 monitoring modules including proximitor sensors, accelerometers, and keyphasor modules.

Common Questions

Q: Can one power supply support a full 14-slot rack?
A: Yes, a single 3500/15-05-00 provides sufficient power for a fully populated rack, though redundant supplies are recommended for critical applications.

Q: Is this compatible with older 3300 series racks?
A: No, the 3500/15 is designed exclusively for 3500 series racks. For 3300 systems, use the appropriate 3300 power supply modules.

Q: What’s included with the module?
A: Each module ships with mounting hardware, terminal block connectors, and factory calibration certificate.

Q: How do I verify proper operation?
A: Check the front-panel LEDs: green AC OK and DC OK indicators confirm input power; a red fault LED indicates output issues requiring attention.

Warranty & Support

Every 3500/15-05-00 module includes a comprehensive 12-month warranty covering manufacturing defects and component failures. Our technical support team provides installation guidance, troubleshooting assistance, and rapid replacement services to minimize downtime.
