Bently Nevada 142238-120-00-05 Proximity Probe Cable
Reliable Extension for Vibration Monitoring
The Bently Nevada 142238-120-00-05 proximity probe cable ensures accurate signal transmission. This cable measures 12 meters (120 decameters) in total length. It connects a 2-meter 3300 or 3300 XL probe to the 170133-140-XX 14-meter Internal Proximitor Module.
Manufacturers use this cable for turbine, compressor, and pump vibration monitoring. The standard connector option (00) provides a secure fit. Additionally, the “05” multiple approvals cover hazardous area requirements. Therefore, this cable suits both normal and classified environments.
Key Technical Specifications
The Bently Nevada 142238-120-00-05 operates as a passive extension cable. It does not require external power. The cable’s impedance matches 3300 series proximity probes. This match reduces signal loss over long runs.
Specifically, the total length of 12 meters (120 dm) includes the probe’s own cable. You must pair it with a 2-meter probe and the 170133-140-XX module. The standard cable option (00) uses a durable PVC jacket. This jacket resists oil, water, and mild chemicals.
Furthermore, multiple approvals (05) include ATEX, CSA, and IECEx certifications. These approvals allow installation in Zone 2 gas and Zone 22 dust environments. The operating temperature range is -20°C to +85°C.
Mechanical and Environmental Parameters
The cable’s outer diameter is 4.5 mm. The conductor uses 24 AWG stranded copper. This design offers flexibility and vibration resistance.
Minimum bend radius: 25 mm
Tensile strength: 100 N maximum
IP rating (mated): IP67
Flammability rating: VW-1
Meanwhile, the connector shell is nickel-plated brass. The contacts are gold-plated for corrosion resistance. This construction ensures reliable performance in harsh industrial settings.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Can this 142238-120-00-05 cable work with non-Bently probes?
No. It is designed specifically for 3300 and 3300 XL probes. Other probes may have different impedance values.
What exactly does the “05 - Multiple Approvals” include?
It includes ATEX (II 3 G Ex nA IIC T4), CSA (Class I, Div 2), and IECEx certifications for gas and dust environments.
What is the total system length when using this cable?
The total equals the 2-meter probe plus this 12-meter cable. That makes 14 meters, matching the 170133-140-XX module perfectly.
Is this cable compatible with both 5 mm and 8 mm 3300 XL probes?
Yes. Both the 5 mm and 8 mm 3300 XL probes with 2-meter leads work without any issues.
Which shipping carriers do you use for this cable?
We ship worldwide via FedEx, UPS, or DHL. Tracking information is provided within 24 hours after dispatch.
