330930-060-02-00 Bently Nevada 3300 NSv Extension Cable
Product Introduction
The 330930-060-02-00 is a high-quality extension cable from Bently Nevada's 3300 NSv series, serving as an essential component in the 3300 XL NSv Proximity Transducer System. This cable establishes a dependable connection between the 3300 NSv proximity probe and the Proximitor Sensor, enabling precise vibration and position monitoring on critical rotating machinery.
This particular model provides a 6.0-meter (19.7-foot) length and features robust stainless steel armor without an FEP outer jacket. The "-02" connector option indicates this configuration includes armor but omits the FEP jacket, while still incorporating connector protectors for enhanced connection security. Therefore, this cable excels in applications where mechanical protection is paramount and exposure to certain chemicals or oils makes the FEP jacket unnecessary. We offer this genuine Bently Nevada cable for immediate delivery via FedEx, UPS, or DHL.
Technical Specifications
Cable Construction and Material
The 330930-060-02-00 utilizes a 75 Ω coaxial cable with fluoroethylene propylene (FEP) insulation. This insulation provides excellent dielectric properties and resists degradation from oils, solvents, and high temperatures. The cable features gold-plated brass ClickLoc connectors on both ends, which create a secure, vibration-resistant locking mechanism.
Armor Configuration
The "-02" option specifies stainless steel armor without an FEP outer jacket. This armor, constructed from flexible AISI 302 SST, delivers superior mechanical protection against crushing, abrasion, and cutting. Since the FEP jacket is absent, the cable offers slightly reduced chemical resistance but maintains its structural integrity in applications where the armor alone provides sufficient protection.
Electrical Characteristics
For accurate signal transmission, this extension cable exhibits specific electrical properties. The center conductor's DC resistance measures 0.220 Ω/m (0.067 Ω/ft) , while the shield's DC resistance is 0.066 Ω/m (0.020 Ω/ft) . Additionally, the cable's typical capacitance is 69.9 pF/m (21.3 pF/ft) . These parameters ensure faithful signal transfer from the probe to the monitoring system.
System Length Requirements
When deploying this extension cable, you must verify that the cable length, combined with the probe length, equals the Proximitor Sensor's total length. For instance, a 6.0-meter cable should be paired with a probe whose length plus 6.0 meters matches the sensor specification. This ensures the system maintains correct calibration and linearity.
Environmental and Temperature Performance
The 330930-060-02-00 operates and stores reliably across a wide temperature range from -51°C to +177°C (-60°F to +351°F) . This broad operating envelope makes it suitable for extreme conditions found in power generation, oil and gas processing, and heavy industrial facilities.
Mechanical Parameters
Tensile Strength and Durability
This cable demonstrates impressive mechanical robustness. The maximum rated tensile strength is 220 N (50 lb) at all critical connection points, including the probe case to probe lead, probe lead to extension cable connectors, and probe case to stainless steel armor. Consequently, the cable withstands significant pulling forces during installation and maintenance.
Connector Material and Protection
Both connectors feature gold-plated brass construction, which provides excellent conductivity and corrosion resistance. The included connector protectors safeguard the ClickLoc connections from moisture, dust, and other contaminants. Furthermore, the armored construction adds an extra layer of protection for the cable body in demanding installations.
Field Wiring and System Integration
Compatibility and Wiring
This extension cable is mechanically and electrically compatible with both 3300 NSv and previous 3300 RAM probes. It works seamlessly with the 3300 XL NSv Proximitor Sensor. For field wiring beyond the cable, use a three-conductor shielded triad cable with a wire gauge of 0.2 to 1.5 mm² (16 to 24 AWG) . The maximum total length between the Proximitor Sensor and the monitor is 305 meters (1,000 feet) .
Linear Range and Gap Setting
The complete transducer system provides a linear range of 1.5 mm (60 mils) , beginning at approximately 0.25 mm (10 mils) from the target. The recommended gap setting for optimal performance is 1.0 mm (40 mils) . This ensures the system operates within its most accurate measurement region for both static position and dynamic vibration monitoring.
Installation Guidelines
Pre-Installation Checks
First, confirm that the 330930-060-02-00 matches your required length and armor configuration. Specifically, verify that the stainless steel armor without FEP jacket suits your installation environment and chemical exposure conditions. Next, inspect the ClickLoc connectors and armor for any visible damage.
Making Connections
Begin by connecting the extension cable to the probe and the Proximitor Sensor. Push the connectors together until they click into place, indicating a secure lock. Then, install the provided connector protectors over the connections to shield them from environmental hazards. For applications inside the machine casing, avoid using silicone tape and rely solely on the connector protectors.
Cable Routing
Route the armored extension cable with attention to bend radius requirements to prevent internal conductor damage. The stainless steel armor provides excellent protection against mechanical stress. However, secure the cable using appropriate clamps and avoid routing near extreme heat sources or sharp edges that could compromise the armor's integrity.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
1. What is the difference between the -02 and -03 connector options?
The 330930-060-02-00 includes stainless steel armor but no FEP outer jacket. In contrast, the -03 option provides no armor but does include connector protectors, offering less mechanical protection but greater flexibility.
2. What happens if I exceed the maximum tensile strength?
Exceeding the rated 220 N (50 lb) tensile strength may damage the cable or connectors, potentially causing signal degradation or complete failure. Always apply pulling force evenly and avoid abrupt jerks during installation.
3. Can I use this cable with older 3300 RAM probes?
Yes, the 3300 NSv extension cable is mechanically and electrically compatible with previous 3300 RAM proximity probes, providing interchangeability for system upgrades or replacements.
4. Why does this cable lack an FEP outer jacket?
The "-02" configuration deliberately omits the FEP jacket for applications where the stainless steel armor alone provides sufficient protection, and where the absence of an outer jacket offers better flexibility or compatibility with certain installation environments.
5. What should I do if the ClickLoc connector does not click into place?
Inspect both the cable's connector and the mating socket for dirt or bent pins. Additionally, ensure you are applying axial pressure squarely. If the issue persists, please contact our technical support team for further assistance.
