Bently Nevada 16710-66 330400 Interconnect Cable

Description

Option 66 (66.0 ft cable length) specifies this 3-conductor shielded armored cable configuration — 16710-66, which serves as an interconnect cable designed for Bently Nevada 330400 and 330425 accelerometer transducers.

This cable configuration incorporates integrated metal armor over 22 AWG (0.5 mm2) conductors, shielding delicate accelerometer signals from physical impact, abrasion, and electromagnetic interference. It is equipped with a 3-socket plug on the transducer connection end and terminal lugs on the receiver end, supporting direct connection to industrial monitor panels or junction boxes.

Features

• Length Option 66: Provides 66.0 ft (20.1 m) of run length to handle mid-to-long distance physical separation between the transducer and junction box.
• Integrated Metal Armor: Offers heavy-duty protection against abrasive materials, crushing force, and impact in critical industrial settings.
• Shielded 22 AWG Core: Combines low-resistance copper conductors with overall shielding to isolate and preserve clean vibration signals.
• MIL-C-5015 Socket End: Features a durable 3-socket plug termination to match the heavy-duty threads of standard casing sensors.
• Terminal Lug Ends: Prepared with terminal lugs on the receiver end for rapid and secure screw terminal connection.

Applications

• Casing acceleration and vibration measurements on rotating machinery such as gearboxes, steam turbines, gas turbines, and pumps.
• Interconnecting Bently Nevada 330400 or 330425 accelerometers with 3500 series vibration monitoring systems or intermediate junction boxes.
• Environments where mechanical hazards require armored cabling to prevent physical damage to critical signal paths.

Installation Guidelines

• Cable Routing: Route the armored cable through protected environments or directly across mechanical supports where hazards exist. Avoid placing the cable near high-voltage lines or high electromagnetic sources to prevent signal interference.
• Grounding and Shielding: Properly terminate the cable shield at the monitoring system or junction box terminal. Keep the shield isolated at the transducer end to prevent ground loops.
• Cable Bend Radius: Maintain the recommended bend radius of the metal armor during installation to prevent crimping the inner 22 AWG conductors.
• Connector Assembly: Align and hand-tighten the 3-socket plug connector onto the MIL-C-5015 sensor receptacle, ensuring a snug and secure seal.

Compliance and Certifications

• China RoHS: Environmental Protection Use Period (EFUP) designation of 15 years in accordance with SJ/T 11364-2024.
