Bently Nevada 3500/05 (350005-02-04-00-00-01) – Power Supply Module for 3500 Machinery Protection Racks

The Bently Nevada 3500/05 power supply module—build code 350005-02-04-00-00-01—is designed to provide reliable rack power for the 3500 vibration monitoring and machinery protection system. It supports hot-swap replacement and redundant configurations, so you can maintain protection coverage without taking the rack offline. From my experience, this is the piece plants rely on when uptime really matters and shutdown windows are tight.

Our Order Placement Process and Guarantees

• Warranty: 365 days
• Delivery: 1 week if in stock; no more than 1 month at the latest
• Payment: 50% advance; full payment before delivery
• Express options: FedEx, UPS, DHL

Key Features

• Built for the 3500 rack – Provides regulated power to all installed monitoring and interface modules across the backplane.
• Redundant-ready – Supports dual power supplies; if one unit drops, the other carries the load automatically.
• Hot-swappable – Replace the module with the rack energized, minimizing process interruptions.
• Status indication – Front LED and OK relay typically used for quick health checks and alarming to DCS/PLC.
• Industrial temperature rating – Suited for control rooms and harsh plant environments in most cases.
• Backwards-compatible design – Commonly used alongside 3500/40M, 3500/42, 3500/25, 3500/22M, and other cards in mixed racks.

Technical Specifications

Application Fields

This module is typically used wherever continuous vibration monitoring and machinery protection are standard practice:

• Oil & gas (compressors, pumps, turbines)
• Petrochemical and refining units
• Power generation (gas/steam turbines, large motors)
• Pulp & paper, mining, and metals processing lines
• Pipeline stations and offshore platforms

Advantages & Value

• High availability by design – Redundant-ready and hot-swappable to keep your protection system live during maintenance.
• Lifecycle compatibility – Works across mixed 3500 racks with common modules like 3500/22M (TDI), 3500/20 (RIM), 3500/40M/42 (proximity/seismic), and 3500/25 (Keyphasor).
• Cost control – Quick field replacement reduces outage costs; spares strategy is simple in most cases.
• Procurement confidence – Stable supply chain, documented build codes, and straightforward install reduce project risk.

Installation & Maintenance

• Cabinet & environment – Mount the 3500 rack in a clean, ventilated cabinet (19″ rack or panel enclosure). Keep ambient within the stated temperature range and avoid conductive dust.
• Power wiring – Use the correct input rating for your specific build (-02 in your code). Proper grounding is essential; torque terminals per spec and keep AC/DC wiring separated from low-level signal cables.
• Redundancy – For critical trains, install dual power supplies. Periodically test redundancy by simulating a single-supply loss during a maintenance window.
• Routine care – Inspect connectors, clean dust with dry air, and verify the Power OK relay back to DCS/PLC. Firmware updates generally apply to interface/monitor cards, not the power supply, but keep overall rack compatibility in mind.
• Swap practice – The module is hot-swappable. A maintenance lead at a refinery told us they typically change it in under five minutes without dropping protection.

Quality & Certifications

• CE marked; UL/cUL for industrial control equipment in many cases
• RoHS compliant where applicable
• Manufacturer warranty is typically 1 year; our supplied units carry a 365-day warranty
