Bently Nevada has a legacy of machinery protection and condition monitoring. Bently Nevada's product line is capable of monitoring for the protection and continuous monitoring of varied machinery assets. The Bently Nevada 3500 System provides continuous, online monitoring suitable for machinery protection applications and collect machine information as a part of comprehensive predictive maintenance program for both field diagnostics and test stand use.
Whether generating power, compressing and pumping fluids or driving process equipment, industry relies on critical machinery every hour of every day. In these settings, machinery failure isn’t just inconvenient, it can be catastrophic. While repair costs alone can be staggering, the partial or even total loss of production resulting from critical machinery failure – sometimes worth millions per day – can mean the difference between profit and loss for the entire year. With so much at stake, mechanical condition monitoring is more than just a good idea, it’s a necessity.
Continuously monitoring critical asset parameters such as vibration, temperature, speed, and numerous other condition indicators is a proven method for anticipating and preventing mechanical failures – proven in tens of thousands of industrial facilities around the world by delivering tangible benefits such as:
- Improved protection from catastrophic failures
- Better machinery reliability/availability
- Fewer process interruptions
- Enhanced maintenance/outage planning
- Lower maintenance and repair costs
- Longer intervals between outages
