Description
The Bently Nevada™ 3500/40M Proximitor Monitor is a four-channel monitor that accepts input from Bently Nevada proximity transducers, conditions the signal to provide various vibration and position measurements, and compares the conditioned signals with user-programmable alarms. The user can program each channel of the 3500/40M with the 3500 Rack Configuration Software to perform any of the following functions:
Radial vibration
Thrust position
Eccentricity
REBAM | Differential expansion
The primary purpose of the 3500/40MProximitor Monitor is to provide the following:
Machinery protection by continuously comparing monitored parameters against configured alarm setpoints to drive alarms
Essential machine information for both operations and maintenance personnel.
Each channel, depending on configuration, typically conditions its input signal to generate various parameters called static values. You can configure alert setpoints for each active static value and danger setpoints for any two of the active static values.
You program the monitor channels in pairs. The monitor channels can perform up to 2 of these functions at a time. Channels 1 and 2 can perform one function, while channels 3 and 4 perform another (or the same) function.

Ordering Considerations
General
The 3500/40M Module requires the following (or later) firmware and software revisions:
3500/01 Software – Version 2.50
3500/02 Software – Version 2.20
3500/03 Software – Version 1.21
When ordering I/O Modules with External Terminations, the External Termination Blocks and Cable must be ordered separately for each I/O Module.
External Termination Blocks cannot be used with Internal Termination I/O Modules.
Internal Barrier I/O Modules
Consult the 3500 Internal Barrier specification sheet (document 141495) if the Internal Barrier Option is selected.
REBAM
The REBAM channel type requires the following (or later) firmware and software revisions:
3500/40M Module Firmware – Revision 2.1
3500/01 Software – Version 3.30
3500/02 Software – Version 2.40
3500/03 Software – Version 1.40
DM2000 Software-Version 3.40.
Requires the M version of the 3500 Proximitor Monitor.
