Description
BENTLY 3500/22M Transient Data Interface (TDI)
1. Product DescriptionThe
BENTLY 3500/22M is a high-performance transient data interface module designed for advanced condition monitoring of rotating machinery. As part of the
BENTLY 3500 series, this module bridges the gap between the 3500 monitoring system and software platforms like System 1, enabling real-time analysis of steady-state and transient data. Unlike its predecessor (3500/22), the
3500/22M captures high-frequency vibrations during critical events such as startups, shutdowns, and fault conditions, making it ideal for predictive maintenance and fault diagnosis. Its Ethernet connectivity and modular design ensure seamless integration with BENTLY’s vibration sensors and other system components.

3. Advantages and Features
- Dual-Mode Data Capture: Simultaneously collects steady-state and transient data for comprehensive machinery health analysis.
- High-Speed Transmission: Supports rapid data transfer to facilitate real-time decision-making.
- Flexible Configuration: Optional channels for dynamic transient data capture and compatibility with M-series monitors (e.g., 3500/42M).
- Enhanced Security: Firmware updates address vulnerabilities (e.g., CVE-2016-5788) to prevent unauthorized access.
4. Application Fields and Case Studies
- Energy: Analyzing turbine rotor dynamics during startup to detect imbalance or misalignment.
- Manufacturing: Diagnosing gearbox faults through vibration spectrum analysis.
- Oil & Gas: Monitoring pump cavitation and bearing wear in offshore installations.
Case Study: A petrochemical plant reduced unplanned downtime by 40% using the 3500/22M to detect early-stage compressor blade damage during transient operations.
5. Competitor Comparison
The 3500/22M outperforms comparable modules with:
- Simultaneous steady-state and transient data support (vs. single-mode alternatives).
- Higher data transfer rates (100 Mbps vs. typical 10 Mbps).
- Built-in compatibility with BENTLY’s System 1 software for advanced analytics.

6. Selection Recommendations
- System Requirements: Ensure compatibility with existing 3500 racks and software versions.
- Data Needs: Choose the USB version for direct connectivity or the serial version for legacy systems.
- Security: Opt for firmware version 5.0 or later to mitigate security risks.
7. Precautions
- Firmware Updates: Regularly apply patches to address security vulnerabilities.
- Network Segmentation: Isolate the module from external networks to prevent unauthorized access.
- Installation: Follow anti-static protocols and ensure proper grounding during setup.
