Bently Nevada 330130-040-01-CN 3300 XL Extension Cable

Critical Signal Link for Proximity Transducer Systems

The Bently Nevada 330130-040-01-CN is a high-performance extension cable specifically designed for the 3300 XL 8mm Proximity Transducer System. It serves as the vital connection between a proximity probe and a Proximitor sensor, extending the reach of the sensing system while maintaining the strict electrical capacitance required for accurate vibration and position measurements. Because the Proximitor sensor relies on precise impedance matching to calculate the gap between the probe tip and the target, using the 330130 series cable ensures the system remains within its calibrated linear range. Consequently, this cable is indispensable for monitoring critical rotating machinery where cable length must be precisely managed to ensure signal integrity.

Advanced Engineering for Harsh Environments

The 330130-040-01-CN maximizes system reliability through its specialized FEP (Fluorinated Ethylene Propylene) jacket, which provides exceptional resistance to moisture, industrial chemicals, and high-temperature exposure. Furthermore, the cable features the patented ClickLoc™ gold-plated connectors, which provide a secure, vibration-proof mechanical lock and superior electrical conductivity. Since the cable includes the “-01” connector protector option, the connection points are shielded from mechanical damage and environmental contaminants in the field. Moreover, the “-CN” approval ensures that the cable meets the specific regulatory and safety requirements for explosive environments in the Chinese market, providing a certified solution for global industrial operations.
