Bently Nevada 330130-085-03-05 3300 XL Standard Extension Cable

Description

Option 085 (8.5 m cable length) and Option 03 (armored cable with connector protector) specify this 3300 XL Standard Extension Cable configuration — 330130-085-03-05. This coaxial cable connects a 3300 XL 8 mm proximity probe to a 3300 XL Proximitor Sensor, completing the eddy-current transducer system loop. The total length of the extension cable and proximity probe combined must equal the calibrated length of the Proximitor Sensor, which is typically 9.0 meters for this 8.5-meter cable option when paired with a 0.5-meter probe.

This specific variant features protective stainless steel armor along the length of the cable to defend the coaxial signal path against physical abrasion, pinch points, and mechanical stress in harsh industrial environments. It also includes a pre-installed fluorosilicone connector protector on the probe-end connection to prevent the entry of moisture, cutting fluids, and lubricating oils into the gold-plated ClickLoc joints. Option 05 provides hazardous area approvals, establishing compliance with CSA, ATEX, and IECEx safety standards for intrinsically safe and non-incendive environments.

Features

• Cable length of 8.5 meters (27.9 feet) to meet specific proximity transducer installation geometries.
• Flexible AISI 302 or 304 stainless steel protective armor with an outer FEP jacket to withstand extreme mechanical wear.
• Pre-installed fluorosilicone connector protector providing environmental isolation for the female ClickLoc connector joint.
• Corrosion-resistant, gold-plated brass or beryllium copper ClickLoc coaxial connectors that secure finger-tight.
• Agency approval Option 05 certifying suitability for hazardous environments under CSA, ATEX, and IECEx.
• Electrical compatibility with standard Bently Nevada 3300 XL 8 mm proximity probes and Proximitor Sensors.

Applications

• Vibration monitoring and shaft position measurement in utility-scale rotating machinery.
• Continuous monitoring systems for steam turbines, industrial gas turbines, multi-stage compressors, and large cooling tower fans.
• Hazardous-location installations in petrochemical plants, refineries, pipelines, and power generation facilities requiring certified intrinsically safe field wiring.

Installation Guidelines

• Do not exceed the minimum cable bend radius of 25.4 mm (1.0 in) during layout and installation to avoid damage to the internal conductor.
• Ensure both gold-plated ClickLoc connector ends are free of dirt and debris prior to mating. Twist finger-tight until you hear and feel the connectors click.
• Ensure the 8.5-meter extension cable is paired with a matching 0.5-meter proximity probe to achieve the required 9.0-meter overall system calibration length.
• Place the connector protector over the probe-cable interface to seal the coaxial terminal from corrosive moisture and lubricants.

Compliance and Certifications

• CSA, ATEX, IECEx Approvals (Option 05) for intrinsically safe (Ex ia) and non-incendive/increased safety (Ex nA/Ex ec) installations in classified areas.
• RoHS Compliant.
