3500/05 System Rack
Available in a traditional 19-inch EIA rack-mount configuration, as well as an innovative bulkhead-mount version with front-access wiring, the system rack holds all 3500 modules. A half-width mini-rack is also available when space is at a premium.

3500 Software
A 3500 Configuration Software is used to configure all 3500 modules. 3500 Operator Display Software is used to collect, trend, and display data from the 3500 system.

3500/15 Power Supply
Accepts 85 to 250 Vac 50/60 Hz, or 20 to 140 Vdc input power, and provides conditioned power through the rack backplane for all installed 3500 modules.

3500/20 Rack Interface Module
The Rack Interface Module (RIM) is the primary interface to the 3500 rack and its installed modules. It provides connection to 3500 configuration software and communication processors. One (1) RIM is required in each 3500 rack.

3500/22M Rack Interface Module with TDI Data Acquisition Hardware
This Rack Interface Module (RIM) provides functions similar to the 3500/20, but incorporates our TDI communications processor, providing full transient, steady-state, or static-only data acquisition and direct connectivity to our System 1 software. It is used in place of the 3500/20 and is recommended whenever immediate, or future, online condition monitoring is desired. Its innovative design consumes no additional rack space and replaces the need for one (or more) external communications processors such as TDXnet™. It is compatible with all M-series 3500 racks.

TDXnet™ Compact Communications Processor
The TDXnet Compact Communications Processor provides the interface between compatible Bently Nevada machinery protection systems and our on-line machinery management software. It continuously collects both steady state and startup/shutdown data from all connected channels in parallel, and offers significant improvements in both data collection features and data transmission (Ethernet or serial) over previous communications processors such as TDIX, TDM, and DDM.

TDXnet™
This communications processor is used with compatible 3300 series systems (refer to 3300 compatibility guide) and is mounted external to the monitoring system. Data can be gathered from up to 24 channels in parallel using high-speed sampling suitable for steady-state and startup/shutdown machinery conditions. Ethernet communications are used for fast data transfer between the TDXnet and its host software. For 3500 racks, TDI is the preferred solution unless it is an older rack without m-series modules installed.

TDIX
This communications processor is the predecessor to TDXnet, performing many of the same functions. However, it uses serial communications rather than Ethernet. It is not supported by System 1 software and information is provided here for reference purposes only. For new or retrofit installations requiring connection to System 1 software, use TDI or TDXnet as appropriate.
|
|
|

|
DDIX/SDIX
This communications processor is similar to TDIX, but without the capability for collection of transient data. It is not supported by System 1 software and information is provided here for reference purposes only. For new or retrofit installations requiring connection to System 1 software, use TDI or TDXnet as appropriate.
