Bently Nevada Monitor Configuration software will run on most Windows desktop or notebook computer systems. Bently Nevada Monitor Configuration software is designed to run and fully tested on Microsoft Windows 7. Software operation is also verified for operation in 32-bit or 64-bit environments.

Networking Requirements

Bently Nevada Monitor Configuration software requires Ethernet ports with TCP/IP protocol support to communicate with the 3701/55 ADAPT ESD. The dual ports on each CPU module should be configured for separate subnets to successfully implement redundant data pathways when this feature is available. Bandwidth sharing on any network, depending on traffic, is always a consideration and will affect network performance. Ensure that you have installed all networking hardware and configured the hardware according to your network administrator’s specifications.

Specifications

Typical specifications are provided for a temperature of +25 °C ± 3°C (+77°F ± 5.4°F). All other specifications are over the operating temperature range of -30°C to +65°C (-22°F to +149°F).

For Hazardous Area installations, the supply must be appropriately certified to the local national standards. Refer to Hazardous Area Directives section for power supply requirements in hazardous area applications.

Refer to Bently Nevada Application Note 013 for instruction about connecting the system and power supply to earth ground.

The 3701/55 Overspeed Protection Module will support from 1 to 999 events per revolution with a maximum full-scale range of 1,20,000 rpm and a maximum input frequency of 20 kHz (1EPR).

Minimum input frequency for proximity transducers is 3Hz (180 rpm for 1 event/revolution & 0.18 rpm for 999 event/revolution). The minimum peak to peak signal amplitude for proximitor speed input of the 3701/55 is 1V. Refer to the table in Appendix on speed signal requirements for minimum (pk to pk) amplitude of signal for different speeds and duty cycles.

Refer to Bently Nevada Application Note 085 for instruction on proximity probe installation.

Minimum input frequency for magnetic is 3Hz (180 rpm for 1 event/revolution & 0.18 rpm for 999 event/revolution). The minimum peak to peak signal amplitude for magnetic speed input of the 3701/55 is 1.5V

Environmental Considerations

The ADAPT ESD is designed to meet a broad range of use cases and environments. The design incorporates significant measures to provide a robust electrical and mechanical package with careful attention to system reliability, including extensive shock, vibration, and temperature exposure.

That being said, the ADAPT ESD system should be treated with the appropriate care, as exposure to extreme environments will shorten the life expectancy of the system. Exposing the ADAPT ESD to condensing liquids, rain, sand, or situations that impair ventilation can cause excessive internal heating and performance loss. For installations that may exceed environmental specifications we can create custom solutions to meet specific needs. For example, although the ADAPT ESD has hazardous area approvals, it must be in a NEMA grade enclosure. If you have any questions regarding an application, please contact your local sales and service representative.
