High-Performance Data Interface for 3500 Monitoring Systems
The Bently Nevada 3500/22M-01-02-00 Transient Data Interface (TDI) delivers a powerful and efficient link between the 3500 Monitoring System and System 1 Condition Monitoring software. This intelligent interface integrates the roles of a Rack Interface Module (RIM) and a communication processor, ensuring seamless real-time data acquisition, configuration, and diagnostics. Installed beside the power supply in the 3500 rack, the 3500/22M continuously captures steady-state and transient waveform data, transmitting it through an Ethernet connection to the host system.
Advanced Performance and Integrated Control
The 3500/22M-01-02-00 not only captures static and dynamic data but also enables high-resolution transient recording when equipped with the optional Channel Enabling Disk. It manages communication for the entire rack while maintaining system stability and reliability. Although it facilitates monitoring operations, it does not interfere with critical machinery protection functions, ensuring safe continuous operation.
