Product: 3500/50-01-00-01 (Assembly: 288062-02)
Category: Power Supply Module for the Bently Nevada 3500 Monitoring System
Overview:
The 3500/50-01-00-01, with assembly number 288062-02, is a critical rack-mounted AC Power Supply Module for the Bently Nevada 3500 Machinery Protection System. The -01-00-01 suffix specifies its configuration, typically indicating a 120/240 VAC input version. Its primary function is to convert incoming plant AC power into clean, regulated, and isolated DC voltages required to operate all other monitoring modules (vibration, speed, temperature, etc.) within the same 3500 rack chassis. It is a fundamental system component, providing the electrical foundation for reliable machinery protection.
Key Parameters & Specifications
| Parameter | Specification / Description |
|---|---|
| Module Function | Rack-Mounted AC-to-DC Power Supply for the 3500 System. |
| Input Voltage | 120/240 VAC, 50/60 Hz, single-phase (typical for -01 configuration). |
| Input Connection | Terminal block for AC Line, Neutral, and Earth Ground. |
| Output Voltages | Provides +24 VDC (for relay logic) and ±15 VDC (for analog circuits) to the rack backplane. |
| Output Power / Current | Sufficient to power a fully populated rack (up to 16 slots). Typical maximum output is 200W-300W. |
| Redundancy Support | Designed for 1-out-of-2 redundant configuration. Two 3500/50 modules can be installed in Slots 1 and 2. They share the load and if one fails, the other automatically assumes the full load without interruption. |
| Alarm Relays | Contains normally energized relays that de-energize upon a power supply fault (e.g., loss of AC input, over-temperature, internal fault). These contacts are wired to the rack's alarm modules to annunciate a power supply failure. |
| Status Indicators | LED indicators for AC Power On, DC Power OK, and Power Supply Fault. |
| Operating Temperature | 0°C to +65°C (+32°F to +149°F) – Standard for 3500 rack components. |
| Mounting | Occupies one slot (typically Slot 1 or 2) in a 3500/15, 3500/25, or 3500/35 rack. |
| Form Factor | Single-wide module (one slot width). |
| Dimensions (H x W x D) | Standard 3500 module size: 193 mm (7.6 in) H x 44 mm (1.73 in) W x 284 mm (11.2 in) D. |
| Weight (Approx.) | ~1.2 kg (2.65 lbs). |
| Safety & Compliance | Designed to meet international standards such as UL, cUL, CE, ATEX/IECEx (when installed in a certified rack/enclosure for hazardous areas). |
| Assembly Note | The assembly number 288062-02 refers to the specific factory build of this module, including its exact component revision and calibration. |
Primary Application Scenarios
Core Infrastructure for Any 3500 System:
An essential component in virtually every Bently Nevada 3500 rack deployed worldwide. It provides the operating power for monitoring systems protecting gas turbines, steam turbines, compressors, pumps, and fans.
High-Availability / Fault-Tolerant Systems:
Used in pairs in 1-out-of-2 redundant configurations for critical applications where uninterrupted monitoring is mandatory (e.g., offshore platforms, unmanned facilities, base-load power plants). This ensures a single power supply failure does not cause a system shutdown.
New System Deployments & Retrofit Projects:
Specified as the standard power supply for new machinery protection system installations and for modernizing existing systems with 3500 technology.
Cross-Industry Critical Machinery Protection:
Power Generation (Nuclear, Fossil, Combined Cycle): Main turbine-generator monitoring.
Oil & Gas: Pipeline compressor stations, LNG liquefaction trains, refinery turbomachinery.
Petrochemical & Chemical: Critical process compressors and turbine drives.
Marine: Propulsion monitoring on naval and commercial vessels.
Found in all industries utilizing the 3500 system:
Systems Requiring Secure AC-Powered Operation:
Chosen in installations where a reliable AC source is available and preferred over DC-backed systems, providing a simple and robust power solution.
Critical Note:
The 3500/50 Power Supply Module does not function in isolation. It must be installed in a compatible 3500 Series Rack.
The assembly number 288062-02 is the key identifier for this specific unit's configuration and revision level.
For redundant operation, a Redundancy Power Supply Module (3500/50R) or specific rack backplane may be required.
Always refer to the factory documentation for assembly 288062-02 and the 3500/50 Installation and Maintenance Guide for definitive wiring diagrams, fuse specifications, and safety instructions. The input voltage must match the plant supply exactly.
