3500/64M Dynamic Pressure Monitor
Datasheet
Bently Nevada Machinery Condition Monitoring
Description
The 3500/64M Dynamic Pressure Monitor is a single slot, fourchannel monitor that accepts input from high temperature
pressure transducers and uses this input to drive alarms. The
monitor’s one measured variable per channel is bandpass
dynamic pressure.
You can use the 3500 Rack Configuration Software to
configure the bandpass corner frequencies along with an
additional notch filter. The monitor provides a recorder
output for control system applications.
The primary purpose of the 3500/64M Dynamic Pressure
Monitor is to provide the following:
l Machinery protection by continuously comparing
monitored parameters against configured alarm
setpoints to drive alarms
l Essential machine information for operations and
maintenance personnel
Each channel, depending on configuration, conditions its input
signal to generate various parameters called measured
variables. You can configure alert and danger setpoints for
each active measured variable.

The front of each monitor has one coaxial
connector for each channel.
Each connector is short-circuit protected.
The Cascade Mode does not cascade the
buffered transducer outputs.

Fixed low pass
Low and high filtering modes are options for a
channel pair. Channels 1 and 2 form a pair, and
channels 3 and 4 are the other pair. You may
select different band pass options on each
channel of a channel pair. However, the channels
within the pair must operate in the same
filtering mode.
You can set up the signal processing so that the
monitor feeds only the channel 1 input to all
four channels. This feature is called Cascade
Mode and is denoted as 1 >ALL in the 3500
Rack Configuration Software.
In Cascade Mode, you can select filter mode
options for a channel pair only. One transducer
provides input to four channels for different
filtering requirements. As a result, you can
configure four separate bandpass filter options
and four separate full-scale ranges with one
transducer input.
The two modes of filtering provide different
qualities of filtering.

Alarms are adjustable from 0 to 100%
of full-scale for each measured value.
However, when the full-scale range
exceeds the range of the transducer,
the range of the transducer will limit
