BENTLY 3500/22M 288055-01
Product Introduction
BENTLY 288055-01 is a 3500/22M transient data interface module for mechanical protection systems. It bridges the monitoring rack and host software to capture dynamic waveform data.
This industrial automation unit combines rack interface and communication processor functions. It supports high-frequency transient capture via an optional channel enabling disk.

Quality Control Process
We validate every BENTLY 288055-01 before it leaves our facility. First, we perform a live Ethernet link test to verify both 10Base-T and 100Base-TX port integrity.
Next, we simulate a System 1 software handshake to confirm data packet routing and transient capture triggering. We also verify the embedded Linux OS boots correctly and check the front-panel LED status indicators.
Finally, each replacement module ships in anti-static shielding with desiccant packs. This prevents moisture ingress during transit.

Replacement Pitfall Guide
❗ Slot Placement Rule: This TDI module MUST be installed in the slot immediately adjacent to the 3500 rack power supplies. Placing it in a standard monitor slot will prevent backplane communication.
❗ Transient Disk Requirement: Standard static data capture is built-in, but high-resolution transient waveforms require the optional Channel Enabling Disk. Ensure your application doesn’t require this disk if it’s missing.
❗ Network Segregation: Never connect this Ethernet port directly to an unmanaged corporate switch. Industrial transient data bursts can saturate standard networks. Use a dedicated VLAN or managed industrial switch.
❗ Firmware Matching: The TDI firmware must match your 3500 rack configuration software version. A mismatch causes communication timeouts and failed waveform uploads.
Keep these in mind and you’ll cut 90% of rework time.
