Description

The Bently Nevada 330130-045-12-05 is a 3300 XL standard extension cable designed for use within the 3300 XL 8mm Proximity Transducer System. This cable provides the essential electrical pathway for transmitting eddy current signals from the proximity probe to the Proximitor sensor. It is engineered to ensure high signal integrity and system stability in demanding machinery condition monitoring applications, including vibration and position measurements on fluid-film bearing machines.

Features

• 4.5-meter (14.8-foot) cable length
• FluidLoc cable construction with integrated connector protector
• Compatible with 3300 XL 8mm probes and Proximitor sensors
• Supports static (position) and dynamic (vibration) measurement signals
• Robust design for thermal cycling and mechanical stress resistance
• Agency approvals: CSA, ATEX, and IECEx

Applications

• Vibration and shaft position monitoring for fluid-film bearing machines
• Performance monitoring for industrial compression systems
• Rotational speed and Keyphasor phase-related measurements
• Harsh industrial environments requiring resistance to oil and liquid leakage

Technical Specifications

Installation Guidelines

• Ensure all connectors are clean and dry before mating to prevent signal interference.
• Verify that the total system electrical length (probe + extension cable) matches the Proximitor sensor requirements (typically 5m or 9m total).
• Do not exceed the minimum bend radius of the coaxial cable to prevent damage to the internal structure.
• Ensure the connector protector is properly seated to maintain an environmental seal against contaminants.
• Handle with care to avoid mechanical stress on the CableLoc and TipLoc interfaces.

FAQ

What is the 330130-045-12-05?

The Bently Nevada 330130-045-12-05 is a 3300 XL 8mm Proximity Transducer System extension cable, featuring a 4.5-meter length, standard cable construction, and specific agency approvals.

What is the function of the 330130-045-12-05 cable?

This cable connects a 3300 XL proximity probe to a 3300 XL Proximitor sensor. It is part of an eddy current transducer system used to measure radial vibration, axial position, and speed on rotating machinery.

Can I use a different length cable than the one originally installed?

No. The 3300 XL system must have a matched electrical length. The total electrical length of the probe plus the extension cable must match the Proximitor sensor, typically 5 or 9 meters total.

What is the typical gap voltage setting for a 3300 XL probe system?

When installed and properly gapped, the typical gap voltage is around -9 V to -11 V DC when the shaft is centered in the probe's linear range.
