Bently Nevada’s 3500 series online monitoring and protection system. Monitoring and Protection systems provide continuous online condition monitoring and protection for your unit equipment. The Bentley 3500 system works well with Bentley vibration sensor probes and can accept Bentley approach eddy current sensors, velocity acceleration sensors (e.g. 330400,330500) and various composite sensors. It is a world leader in detecting and preventing false trips and false trips of rotating machinery. Installed in more than 80,000 units worldwide, it provides automatic protection values through trip monitoring machines to prevent costly damage when needed. The 3500 system also protects your machines and processes against errant trips that can cause your operations to stop for no reason, resulting in costly downtime or lost production. When connected to System 1* software, it also provides continuous condition monitoring information for proactive maintenance planning. The 3500 system combines the industry’s broadest selection of mechanical measurement parameters with software configurations for virtually all mechanical monitoring scenarios. The 3500 system fully complies with the requirements of the American Petroleum Institute API670 standard for such systems. It is the most powerful and flexible system in the Bentley Nevada legacy frame system, with a variety of features and advanced functions not available in other systems.
