Bently Nevada 330130-080-00-BR Extension Cable

Bently Nevada 330130-080-00-BR Extension Cable

Product Introduction

The 330130-080-00-BR is a genuine Bently Nevada 3300 XL extension cable. It transfers vibration signals from an 8 mm proximity probe to a Proximitor Sensor. Specifically, this model provides an 8.0-meter length with a standard, unarmored jacket. Moreover, the "BR" suffix marks a country-specific approval for regional compliance. Therefore, it suits turbines, compressors, and other rotating machinery that demand accurate position and vibration data.

Technical Specifications

First, let us review the electrical values. The center conductor resistance (RCORE) is 1.76 ± 0.26 Ω at 8.0 meters. Meanwhile, the outer conductor resistance (RJACKET) measures 0.53 ± 0.11 Ω. Besides, the cable capacitance is typically 69.9 pF/m (21.3 pF/ft). These figures keep signal loss low across the full cable run.

The 330130-080-00-BR operates with a -17.5 Vdc to -26 Vdc supply. Specifically, it consumes a maximum of 12 mA. Output resistance is 50 Ω, and supply sensitivity stays below 2 mV per volt change. In addition, the linear range spans 0.25 to 2.3 mm (10 to 90 mils), which equals roughly -1 to -17 Vdc.

Mechanical and Environmental Parameters

The length option "080" means 8.0 meters (26.2 feet). Option "00" specifies a standard cable without a connector protector. The standard cable weighs only 34 g/m (0.4 oz/ft), so the total gross weight is 0.272 kg. However, an armored version of this cable weighs 103 g/m (1.5 oz/ft).

The CableLoc design provides 330 N (75 lbf) of pull strength at the probe tip. Furthermore, the optional FluidLoc feature blocks oil from leaking through the cable interior. For humid sites, the design limits average scale factor change to under 3% after 56 days at 93% humidity. Finally, each cable ships with silicone tape as a substitute for connector protectors.

Installation Guide

Next, follow these steps for a clean installation. First, route the 330130-080-00-BR cable away from sharp edges and hot surfaces. Second, connect the probe end firmly and secure the junction. Third, attach the Proximitor end and tighten it by hand.

Additionally, keep field wiring between the sensor and monitor under 305 meters (1,000 feet). Use 3-conductor shielded triad cable with tinned wires for best results. However, avoid silicone tape when turbine oil may reach the probe-to-cable connection. Finally, confirm the probe gap sits at 1.27 mm (50 mils) for accurate readings.

FAQ

Q1: What does the "BR" suffix mean on this cable?
A1: The "BR" suffix indicates a country-specific approval, which confirms compliance with regional certification rules.

Q2: Does this cable include a connector protector?
A2: No, option 00 means a standard cable only. You can add a connector protector or use the included silicone tape.

Q3: Can this cable replace a damaged 3300 XL cable directly?
A3: Yes, it is a direct replacement, as long as the total system length matches your Proximitor Sensor setup.

Q4: What is the maximum field wiring length?
A4: The maximum length between the Proximitor Sensor and the monitor is 305 meters (1,000 feet).

Q5: How do you ship this product?
A5: We ship worldwide via Fedex, UPS, and DHL. Most orders dispatch within 1–2 business days.
