Bently Nevada 3500/05-01-02-01-00-01 Rack with cNRTLus Option

Bently Nevada 3500/05-01-02-01-00-01 3500 system rack, rack mount (19-inch EIA)

The 3500/05-01-02-01-00-01 is the rack-mount full-size 3500 rack that carries the cNRTLus Class I Division 2 approval option together with the CE option. It is picked when the rack mounts on EIA rails and the site also needs North American Division 2 marking on the rack.

The Bently Nevada 3500/05-01-02-01-00-01 is the 3500/05 System Rack ordered as a 19-inch EIA rack-mount full-size rack. The rack holds the power supplies, the Transient Data Interface and up to 14 monitor, relay, Keyphasor or gateway modules. Seven Star LLC supplies 3500/05-01-02-01-00-01 in Oman and the GCC as an independent supplier in Muscat.

Decoding 3500/05-01-02-01-00-01

The European compliance field is set to 01 (CE), so the rack is ordered with the CE marking option; the datasheet lists EMC Directive 2014/30/EU and LV Directive 2014/35/EU.

Mounting and installation of 3500/05-01-02-01-00-01

Fit the rack on the EIA rails at the planned height using the rack ears, with the 482.6 mm width and 265.94 mm (10.47 in) height in mind. Allow 349.25 mm of depth for the standard case, or 422.91 mm if internal barriers are used, and leave rear clearance for the I/O modules and cables.

Rack mounting suits the standard marshalling or control cabinets used by turbine and compressor packages, where several 19-inch items share the same frame.

Approval and compliance notes for 3500/05-01-02-01-00-01

The datasheet lists the cNRTLus approval as Class I Zone 2 AEx/Ex nA nC ic IIC T4 Gc and AEx/Ex ec nC ic IIC T4 Gc, plus Class I Division 2 Groups A, B, C and D, T4 at ambient -20 to +65 °C, when installed according to drawing 149243 or 149244. A rack alone does not make a system approved: the modules fitted must also hold approvals, and the final authority is the label on the unit. Check site-specific certificate requirements before purchase.

What goes into the rack

A 3500 rack is a passive backplane frame. The left-most positions are reserved for the 3500/15 power supplies and the 3500/20 or 3500/22M interface module, and the remaining 14 positions take main modules at the front and I/O modules at the rear (above the main module on bulkhead racks). Spares and filler items listed by the manufacturer for the rack are:

• 125388-01 half-height module adapter (internal chassis), 125565-01 card guide, 04300111 screws (qty 3).
• 131150-01 power supply blank front panel; 128085-01 power supply input connector cover; 04310251 screws.
• 130768-01 full-height blank monitor cover kit (130944-01 front panel and 128031-01 I/O cover).
• 131151-01 half-height blank front panel; 00561941 TMR/SIM jumper on the backplane.
• 129766-01 rack installation and maintenance manual and 130432-01 field wiring diagrams.

Selection checklist for 3500/05-01-02-01-00-01

• Check that the area classification in the project documents calls for Class I, Division 2 or Zone 2 equipment, and that the whole rack assembly (modules and I/O) is ordered with matching approval options.
• Confirm the rails and cabinet depth, remembering 349.25 mm normally and 422.91 mm with internal barriers.
• Review the installation drawings referred to by the datasheet (149243 or 149244) when the rack is installed in a classified location.
• Note that module-level approval options are separate: each monitor and I/O module carries its own agency option.
• Retain nameplate photos for the site hazardous-area dossier.

Rack family comparison

Compared with 3500/05-01-02-00-00-01, this rack adds the cNRTLus option (code 01 in the third field). The mounting, size and CE code are the same.

Typical applications in Oman and the GCC

3500 racks protect gas turbines, steam turbines, centrifugal compressors, large motors and pumps in oil and gas, power generation, desalination and petrochemical plants in Oman and the GCC. A rack is a long-life item that may stay in service for decades, so replacement racks are usually requested during modernization or when a backplane is damaged. High ambient temperatures, dust and humid coastal air mean the installation location, cabinet ventilation and earthing quality matter as much as the rack itself.
