Bently Nevada 3500/15 106M1079-01 AC Power Supply Module

This AC power supply module keeps critical machinery monitoring systems humming in demanding industrial environments. Specifically designed for Bently Nevada’s 3500 series racks, it delivers clean, stable power to vibration monitoring systems where unexpected downtime could cost thousands. You’ll find these modules deployed in power plants, offshore rigs, and heavy manufacturing facilities where precision matters more than ever.

Engineers specify this module for turbine monitoring systems, compressor protection setups, and continuous process lines where vibration analysis prevents catastrophic failures. We’ve seen it deployed alongside 3500/44 vibration monitors, 3500/22M proximity probes, and 3500/92 relay modules in oil & gas applications. The 106M1079-01’s ability to handle voltage fluctuations makes it popular in regions with unstable grid power.

What sets this unit apart? The dual power input lets you connect two separate AC sources for redundancy – I’ve seen this keep monitoring systems alive during plant-wide brownouts. The front panel LEDs show output status at a glance, which maintenance teams appreciate during troubleshooting. Internally, the ruggedized PCB design resists vibration itself, avoiding false trips from mechanical stress.

Installation feels straightforward thanks to the plug-in terminal blocks and DIN rail mounting. One customer mentioned swapping out a failed unit during a turbine overhaul without powering down the entire rack – that’s the advantage of modular design. While specs list “varies based on system load” for current output, real-world testing shows it consistently handles 2A combined across all rails without overheating.
