Bently Nevada|3500/70M 136449-09|Recip Impulse Velocity Monitor
Bently Nevada 3500/70M 136449-09 Recip Impulse Velocity Monitor
The Bently Nevada 3500/70M is a 4-channel monitor designed for the protection of reciprocating compressors by measuring crankcase and crosshead vibrations.
Features
- Supports four functions: Impulse Acceleration, Acceleration 2, Recip Velocity, Low Frequency Recip Velocity
- Channels are configurable in pairs to allow two simultaneous functions
- Provides machinery protection and operational data through static values and alarm comparisons
Technical Specifications
Inputs

- Special Inhibit: 5 Vdc @ 390 μA
Power
- Consumption: 7.7 W (nominal)
Sensitivity
- Impulse/Acceleration 2: 0.51–11.72 mV/(m/s²) or 5–115 mV/g
- Recip Velocity/LF Recip Velocity: 3.54–22.64 mV/(mm/s) or 90–575 mV/(in/s)
Outputs
