Applications
The 330130-070-11-05 is intended for installations where a 3300 XL 8 mm proximity probe must be connected to the associated monitoring electronics over an extended distance.
Typical applications include:
- Steam and gas turbine monitoring — Suitable for proximity-based measurement arrangements used to monitor shaft position, vibration, and other critical machine conditions.
- Compressor monitoring — Provides the cable extension required in installations where the probe and signal-conditioning equipment are physically separated.
- Pump and rotating equipment protection — Supports continuous machinery monitoring systems in industrial plants.
- Oil and gas facilities — The armored and FluidLoc configuration is useful where cable protection and fluid containment are important considerations.
- Petrochemical and process plants — Provides a practical connection solution for machinery monitoring installations requiring extended cable routing.
- Power generation equipment — Well suited to condition monitoring systems where reliable proximity probe connections are essential to equipment protection.
The 7.0 m length gives engineers additional routing flexibility while retaining compatibility with the 3300 XL 8 mm system architecture.
Advantages
Extended Installation Flexibility
With a 7.0 m cable length, the 330130-070-11-05 gives installation engineers more freedom when positioning proximity probes and associated monitoring electronics. This can be particularly useful on large rotating machines where the physical distance between the measurement point and monitoring cabinet is significant.
Reinforced Cable Construction
The armored configuration adds mechanical protection to the cable, making it better suited to industrial environments where cables may be exposed to physical contact, routing constraints, or other installation stresses.
FluidLoc Design
The FluidLoc option is designed to help prevent oil and other liquids from migrating through the cable interior. This feature is particularly valuable for machinery installations where the cable passes from an oil-containing machine environment toward external instrumentation.
Strong Mechanical Connection
The 3300 XL cable design incorporates CableLoc technology intended to provide a stronger attachment between the cable and probe assembly. This helps improve mechanical security in applications subject to vibration and continuous machine operation.
Hazardous-Area Approval Options
The 05 configuration provides CSA, ATEX, and IECEx approvals, making this particular version suitable for applications where recognized hazardous-area certification is required, subject to the complete installation and applicable site requirements.
Designed for 3300 XL Integration
Rather than functioning as a generic instrumentation cable, the 330130-070-11-05 is part of the 3300 XL 8 mm proximity measurement ecosystem. This makes it a logical replacement or extension component when maintaining an existing Bently Nevada monitoring installation.
Technical FAQs
1. What is the Bently Nevada 330130-070-11-05?
The 330130-070-11-05 is a 3300 XL Standard Extension Cable used with Bently Nevada 3300 XL 8 mm proximity measurement systems. It provides the cable length required between the proximity probe and associated Proximitor sensor.
2. How long is the 330130-070-11-05 cable?
The cable length is 7.0 meters, equivalent to approximately 22.9 feet.
3. What does the “070” designation mean?
The “070” portion of the part number identifies the 7.0 m cable-length option.
4. What type of cable configuration does this model use?
The 330130-070-11-05 uses the specified armored FluidLoc cable configuration. This provides additional mechanical protection and helps limit fluid migration through the cable.
5. Which Bently Nevada system is this cable designed for?
This model is associated with the Bently Nevada 3300 XL 8 mm proximity transducer system and is intended to work as part of the probe, extension cable, and Proximitor sensor arrangement.
6. What approvals are associated with the “05” option?
The 05 configuration is identified with CSA, ATEX, and IECEx approvals. Installation should still be evaluated against the complete system certification and the requirements of the intended hazardous area.
7. Can this cable be used as a replacement for another 3300 XL extension cable?
It may be suitable when the replacement cable has matching system, length, connector, cable construction, and approval requirements. The complete part number should always be checked before replacement.
8. Is the 330130-070-11-05 suitable for industrial rotating machinery?
Yes. It is intended for use within proximity measurement systems commonly applied to rotating machinery monitoring, including turbines, compressors, pumps, and other critical equipment.
9. What are the listed dimensions and weight?
The listed product dimensions are 31 × 30 × 3 cm and the listed weight is 0.84 kg. These figures should be treated as listed product or packaging information rather than a detailed dimensional specification of the flexible cable.
