Bently Nevada 330905-00-25-05-02 Product Profile

Product Introduction

The Bently Nevada 330905-00-25-05-02 is a high-performance extension cable designed to work seamlessly with the Bently Nevada 3300 XL series Proximity Transducer Systems. These extension cables are essential components in non-contacting vibration and position measurement systems for rotating machinery. Manufactured with precision and durability, the 330905 series ensures accurate signal transmission from the probe to the proximitor sensor while withstanding demanding industrial environments.

This model, 330905-00-25-05-02, features a 25-foot (7.62 meters) length, which provides optimal flexibility for extended installations where the proximitor sensor must be distanced from the probe. It is terminated with standard connectors on both ends to ensure reliable connectivity and ease of installation.

The cable assembly is designed for compatibility with both standard and hazardous locations, making it a versatile solution across power generation, oil & gas, petrochemical, and other heavy industrial applications.

Installation Instructions

1. Verify Compatibility
   Confirm that the proximity probe and proximitor sensor are both part of the Bently Nevada 3300 XL system and match specifications.

2. Secure Cable Routing
   Route the cable away from high-voltage lines, high-temperature surfaces, and sources of vibration to prevent damage or interference.

3. Connector Handling
   Do not force or overtighten connectors. Use standard hand-tightening to attach both ends securely.

4. Avoid Excessive Bending
   Maintain the minimum bend radius (25 mm) during installation to avoid cable damage or signal loss.

5. Cable Support
   Use cable ties or clamps to support long cable runs, especially in vertical or overhead installations.

6. Environmental Protection
   In outdoor or corrosive environments, use protective conduit or sleeving as required by local standards.

7. Final Check
   Use a system tester or voltmeter to verify continuity and grounding before powering the system.
