Bently Nevada 3500/94 145988-01 VGA Display Module

The Bently Nevada 3500/94 (145988-01) serves as a critical interface for industrial condition monitoring systems. Designed for real-time visualization of vibration and machinery health data, this module helps maintenance teams prevent catastrophic failures in rotating equipment like steam turbines, centrifugal compressors, and generator sets. Its VGA output delivers clear graphical representations of operational parameters, making it indispensable for facilities requiring continuous process uptime.

Primarily used in power generation plants and oil refineries, this module connects directly to Bently Nevada’s 3500 Series monitoring chassis through standard DB15 VGA ports. We’ve seen it deployed extensively in facilities with legacy GE steam turbine installations, often paired with 3500/22M vibration monitors and 3500/42M proximity probes. For customers upgrading older systems, this display module maintains backward compatibility with existing 3500 rack assemblies while offering improved visual clarity over earlier CRT-based interfaces.

In fact, one of our clients in Singapore recently replaced 15-year-old HMIs with this VGA module across their combined cycle power plant. They reported a 40% reduction in misinterpreted alarm states due to the enhanced graphical display of shaft vibration orbits and spectral data.

Our inventory includes both new and refurbished units with full 12-month warranties. While GE no longer produces this specific model, we maintain stock through strategic partnerships with decommissioned plants across North America and Europe. For urgent requirements, we can offer expedited delivery from our regional warehouses in Dubai or Singapore.

Personally, I recommend pairing this module with our available 3500/92 communication interfaces for facilities implementing remote monitoring solutions. Our technical team provides free configuration support for integrating these modules into existing monitoring architectures.
