3500/05-02-05-00-00-01 Bently Central control module

Product Overview

Bently Nevada, a Baker Hughes business, is a renowned manufacturer of machinery health monitoring systems. Their dynamic pressure monitors are specialized instruments designed to measure and analyze high

-frequency pressure fluctuations in rotating machinery. These monitors play a crucial role in detecting early signs of mechanical faults, such as cavitation, erosion, and imbalance, enabling predictive maintenance 

and preventing catastrophic equipment failures.  

Key Features and Specifications

• High-Frequency Measurements: These monitors are capable of measuring pressure fluctuations at frequencies well above the audible range, allowing for the detection of subtle changes in machine condition.

   

• Multiple Channels: Most models offer multiple channels, enabling simultaneous monitoring of various pressure points within a machine.

   

• Alarm Functions: Customizable alarm thresholds and conditions allow for early detection of potential issues.

• Data Acquisition: Many monitors can store data for trend analysis and historical review.

   

• Compatibility: Compatible with a wide range of Bently Nevada sensors and other instrumentation.

Advantages

• Early Fault Detection: By monitoring high-frequency pressure fluctuations, these monitors can detect incipient faults long before they lead to catastrophic failures.

• Reduced Maintenance Costs: Predictive maintenance based on the data provided by these monitors can significantly reduce maintenance costs.

   

• Increased Equipment Reliability: Early detection and correction of faults can extend the lifespan of rotating equipment.

   

• Improved Safety: By identifying potential failures before they occur, these monitors can help improve the safety of personnel and equipment. 

Considerations and Precautions

• Sensor Selection: The choice of pressure transducer is critical for accurate measurements. Factors such as pressure range, frequency response, and temperature rating must be carefully considered.

• Installation: Proper installation is essential to ensure accurate measurements. Factors such as sensor location, orientation, and cabling must be carefully considered.

• Calibration: Regular calibration is necessary to maintain accuracy.

• Environmental Conditions: These monitors may be sensitive to environmental factors such as temperature, vibration, and electromagnetic interference.

• Signal Conditioning: Proper signal conditioning is often required to ensure accurate and reliable data.

Applications

Bently Nevada dynamic pressure monitors are widely used in various industries, including:

• Power Generation: Monitoring turbines, generators, and pumps.

   

• Aerospace: Monitoring jet engines and auxiliary power units.

• Oil and Gas: Monitoring compressors, pumps, and turbines in oil and gas production facilities.

   

• Marine: Monitoring marine propulsion systems.

• Industrial Machinery: Monitoring large industrial fans, pumps, and compressors.

Specific Model: 3500/64M Dynamic Pressure Monitor

A popular model, the 3500/64M, is a single-slot, four-channel monitor that accepts input from high-temperature pressure transducers. It's designed for applications requiring high-frequency pressure

 measurements and offers features like:  

• Bandpass dynamic pressure measurement

• Alarm functions

• Compatibility with various transducers

By continuously monitoring the dynamic pressure within a machine, the 3500/64M can detect early signs of wear, imbalance, and other mechanical faults, allowing for timely maintenance and preventing costly 

equipment failures.
