Bently Nevada 350040M_140734-01 – 3500/40M Proximitor/Seismic Monitor with 140734-01 Rear I/O Plate

The Bently Nevada 350040M_140734-01 denotes a 3500/40M monitor paired with its matching rear I/O termination plate 140734-01. From my experience, this is the workhorse 4‑channel monitor for proximity probes and, in many cases, seismic transducers—ideal for radial vibration, thrust (axial) position, and casing velocity/acceleration. You might notice that keeping the OEM rear plate with the front module keeps shield terminations clean and makes swap‑outs much faster during a turnaround.

Company’s Order Placement Process and Guarantees

• Warranty period: 365 days
• Delivery time: 1 week for in-stock; no more than 1 month at the latest
• Payment method: 50% advance payment; full payment for delivery
• Express delivery methods: FedEx, UPS, DHL

Key Features

• 4-channel machinery monitoring – Typically handles proximity probe or seismic inputs for radial vibration, thrust position, and casing vibration.
• Matched rear I/O (140734‑01) – Labeled screw terminals and earth points keep field terminations tidy and repeatable.
• Backplane integration – Powered via the rack; measurements and statuses are shared to other 3500 modules and the TDI (3500/22M).
• Alarm processing – Supports Alert/Danger thresholds and OK status so interlocks are predictable and easy to test.
• Service-friendly layout – Front plug‑in card with rear terminations, which in many cases shortens outage work.

Technical Specifications

Values reflect what you commonly see on a 3500/40M paired with rear I/O 140734‑01. Share your transducer models and rack option string and we’ll verify the exact fit before shipment.

Application Fields

• Compressors and turbines monitoring radial vibration, thrust position, and casing vibration
• Large motors, pumps, and fans where continuous vibration trending supports protection and reliability
• Gearboxes and balance‑of‑plant assets needing 4‑channel condition monitoring in a single module
• Retrofits aiming to keep probe runs intact while refreshing rack hardware

Advantages & Value

• Reliability – Proven 3500 platform with clear OK/Alarm behavior; easier to validate during loop checks.
• Compatibility – Native fit with Bently probes and the 3500 ecosystem; in many cases a direct like‑for‑like swap.
• Maintainability – Rear plate labeling keeps terminations traceable, which typically shortens outage tasks.
• Lifecycle support – Stable option coding and a 365‑day warranty reduce procurement risk for critical spares.

Installation & Maintenance

• Probe setup – Set proximity probe gaps and targets per spec; for seismic, confirm mounting orientation and torque.
• Wiring practice – Route low‑level transducer wiring away from VFD outputs/contactors; maintain shield continuity to the designated point.
• Grounding – Bond the rack using single‑point practice; use rear plate earth lugs to avoid loops.
• Commissioning – Verify OK status, Alert/Danger setpoints, and channel scaling; confirm data is visible via the 22M (System 1).
• Routine care – Re‑torque terminals during PMs, inspect insulation and probe cables, and review trend/OK logs for early warnings.

Quality & Certifications

• CE and RoHS compliance (typical for Bently Nevada 3500 components)
• UL/cUL suitability for industrial control panels, model dependent
• Manufacturer’s warranty: 12 months from shipment

If you share your probe types (proximity or seismic), desired channel assignments, and the rack option string, we’ll double‑check the 3500/40M + 140734‑01 pairing and ship to fit your maintenance window.
