The Bently Nevada 330130-040-01-00 is a 4.0-meter standard extension cable designed for the 3300 XL 8 mm Proximity Transducer System. This cable serves as the critical electrical link between a 3300 XL proximity probe and a 3300 XL Proximitor sensor, transmitting eddy current signals for precise machinery condition monitoring.

Features

• 4.0-meter cable length for flexible installation
• Armored construction using flexible stainless steel braid for superior mechanical protection
• Designed for 3300 XL 8 mm Proximity Transducer Systems
• High-reliability ClickLoc connectors for secure, tool-free mating
• Wide operating temperature range (-51 degC to +177 degC)
• Fully compliant with API 670 standards for interchangeability

Applications

• Oil, Gas, and Petrochemical: Monitoring critical rotating machinery in hazardous zones
• Power Generation: Tracking shaft displacement and vibration in turbines and generators
• Chemical Processing: Reliable operation in environments requiring chemical resistance
• Heavy Industry: Withstands mechanical stress, abrasion, and harsh industrial conditions

Technical Specifications

Installation Guidelines

• Route the cable away from AC power lines and high-voltage wiring (minimum 305 mm separation) to minimize electromagnetic interference (EMI).
• Avoid sharp bends during installation to maintain cable integrity and signal quality.
• Ensure ClickLoc connectors are aligned and pushed until a positive click is felt; no tools are required for mating.
• Use appropriate cable ties to secure the armored cable, ensuring the armor is not crushed or kinked.
• Verify that the total system electrical length (probe + extension cable) matches the requirements of the Proximitor sensor.

FAQ

What is the primary function of the 330130-040-01-00?

It provides the signal transmission pathway between a 3300 XL proximity probe and a Proximitor sensor, allowing for accurate distance and vibration measurement in industrial machinery.

Is this cable compatible with non-XL systems?

No. This cable is specifically engineered for the 3300 XL series. Mixing components with non-XL systems will result in degraded performance and measurement inaccuracies.

Why is the armored option recommended?

The stainless steel armor provides essential protection against physical damage, such as abrasion, crushing, or rodent interference, which is common in heavy industrial environments.
