Machinery Protection Solution – Bently Nevada 3500/05-02-04-00-00-01 | 3500 Series System Rack
The Bently Nevada 3500/05-02-04-00-00-01 is a modular system rack at the heart of the 3500 Series Machinery Protection System (MPS). Engineered for continuous, real-time monitoring of rotating and reciprocating machinery, this rack serves as the backbone for housing monitor modules, power supplies, and communication cards in mission-critical industrial environments.
Where This Product Is Used
The 3500/05 System Rack is deployed across the most demanding industrial sectors where unplanned downtime is unacceptable:
- Oil & Gas: Upstream compressor trains, midstream pipeline pumping stations, LNG liquefaction turbines
- Power Generation: Steam turbine-generator sets, gas turbines, hydro turbine shaft monitoring
- Petrochemical & Refining: Cracker unit compressors, reactor feed pumps, blower trains
- Marine & Offshore: Platform propulsion systems, FPSO machinery decks
- Pulp & Paper / Mining: Large induced-draft fans, ball mills, kiln drive systems
Wherever API 670-compliant machinery protection is mandated, the 3500/05 rack is the industry-standard chassis of choice.
Technical Specifications

Why Engineers Specify This Model
- Modular Architecture: Mix-and-match monitor cards (vibration, axial position, speed, temperature) within a single rack — no dedicated chassis per measurement type
- Redundant Power: Dual PSU bays ensure continuous operation even during a single power supply failure
- Hot-Swap Capability: Individual modules can be replaced under power without shutting down the protection system
- Scalability: Expand monitoring points by adding modules; no rewiring of the rack backplane required
- Proven Reliability: The 3500 platform has decades of field-proven deployment in Tier-1 oil & gas and power generation facilities worldwide
- DCS/SCADA Integration: Supports Modbus, FOUNDATION Fieldbus, and Ethernet/IP via optional communication gateway modules

Application-Specific FAQ
Q: Can the 3500/05-02-04-00-00-01 rack accept all 3500 Series monitor modules?
A: Yes. The 3500/05 rack is the universal chassis for the 3500 platform and accepts all standard monitor, power supply, and communication modules within the series.
Q: What is the difference between the various 3500/05 part number suffixes?
A: The suffix digits encode options such as rack depth, display type, and communication backplane configuration. The -02-04-00-00-01 suffix specifies a standard 19-inch, non-display, standard backplane configuration. Contact us to confirm the exact variant for your application.
Q: Is this rack compatible with legacy 3300 Series monitors?
A: No. The 3500 and 3300 series use different backplane architectures and are not cross-compatible. The 3500/05 rack is exclusively for 3500 Series modules.
Q: Can I use this rack in a SIL 2 safety instrumented function?
A: The 3500 platform supports SIL-capable configurations when combined with appropriate safety-rated modules and a validated SIS architecture. Consult your functional safety engineer and Bently Nevada documentation for SIL loop assessment.
Q: What is the lead time for this part?
A: In-stock units ship within 1–3 business days. For out-of-stock inquiries, contact us for sourcing timeline — we maintain active procurement channels for the full 3500 Series.
