Introduction
The Bently Nevada 330130-090-10-00 is a 3300 XL Standard Extension Cable configured for compatible 3300 XL proximity transducer systems. With a nominal 9.0-meter cable length, this version is intended for installations where additional distance is required between the proximity probe and Proximitor Sensor.
The ordering configuration identifies 090 as the 9.0-meter cable-length option, 10 as the FluidLoc cable configuration, and 00 as the option with no additional agency approvals required. The result is a practical extension solution that combines the reach needed for larger machinery layouts with FluidLoc protection for installations where oil or other liquids may be present.
For turbine, compressor, generator, motor, pump, and other rotating-equipment applications, selecting the correct extension-cable configuration is important because the probe, extension cable, and Proximitor Sensor form a matched electrical measurement system. The 330130-090-10-00 provides a straightforward FluidLoc configuration for projects where additional cable protection is needed but an armored cable or special approval configuration is not required.

Applications
Turbine Condition Monitoring
The 330130-090-10-00 can be used as part of a compatible 3300 XL proximity measurement chain on steam and gas turbines. Its 9-meter reach gives installation engineers greater freedom when locating the Proximitor Sensor away from the turbine casing.
Compressor Monitoring
Compressors frequently require proximity probes around bearings and rotating shafts while signal-conditioning hardware is installed at a more accessible location. The extended cable length provides additional routing flexibility for these layouts.
Oil-Lubricated Machinery
The FluidLoc construction is particularly useful in machinery environments where lubricating oil is present. It is designed to help prevent oil and other liquids from migrating through the cable interior.
Generator and Motor Applications
Compatible 3300 XL proximity systems can be used for shaft vibration and position measurement on generators and motors. The 330130-090-10-00 offers additional installation reach without introducing the extra bulk of an armored cable.
Pump Monitoring
Industrial pumps can benefit from continuous proximity-based monitoring of shaft position and vibration. The FluidLoc configuration is useful where the cable is routed through an environment exposed to lubricants or process fluids.
Industrial Rotating Equipment
The cable can support proximity measurement applications on fans, blowers, gearboxes, auxiliary turbines, and other rotating machinery where the installed system requires a longer extension connection.
Retrofit Projects
For existing 3300 XL systems that require a 9-meter FluidLoc extension cable without additional agency approval, the 330130-090-10-00 provides a clearly defined replacement configuration.
Advantages
9-Meter Installation Reach
The 9.0-meter length gives installers more flexibility than shorter extension options. It can help accommodate larger machinery layouts and greater distances between the sensing point and instrumentation hardware.
FluidLoc Protection
FluidLoc is the defining feature of the 10 cable configuration. It is designed to help control the migration of oil and other liquids through the cable assembly, which can be particularly valuable around oil-lubricated machinery.
Lightweight Flexible Construction
Unlike armored configurations, the 330130-090-10-00 remains relatively lightweight and flexible. This makes cable routing easier where additional mechanical armor is not required.
75Ω Triaxial Design
The 75Ω triaxial cable construction is intended for the electrical characteristics of the 3300 XL proximity measurement system. Maintaining the correct cable configuration supports consistent performance across the probe, extension cable, and Proximitor Sensor.
FEP Insulation
FEP insulation provides dependable electrical isolation and is well suited to industrial instrumentation applications where environmental durability is important.
Clean Installation Profile
Without the additional armor and connector-protector hardware associated with other 330130 configurations, this version provides a relatively simple cable arrangement for installations where the surrounding environment is adequately controlled.
Practical Replacement Option
For maintenance teams working on an existing 3300 XL system, matching the complete cable number helps avoid confusion between standard, armored, FluidLoc, and connector-protected variants.
Purpose-Built for 3300 XL Systems
The 330130 series is designed specifically as part of the 3300 XL proximity transducer architecture. Using the correctly configured extension cable helps preserve the intended electrical relationship between the probe and Proximitor Sensor.
Technical FAQs
1. What is the Bently Nevada 330130-090-10-00?
The 330130-090-10-00 is a 3300 XL Standard Extension Cable configured with a 9.0-meter length, FluidLoc cable construction, and no additional agency approval option.
2. How long is the cable?
The nominal cable length is 9.0 meters, equivalent to approximately 29.5 feet.
3. What does “090” mean?
The 090 portion identifies the 9.0-meter cable-length configuration.
4. What does “10” mean?
The 10 option identifies the FluidLoc cable configuration. It provides fluid-migration protection without adding the armored construction associated with the 11 or 13 configurations.
5. What does the final “00” indicate?
The final 00 indicates that no additional agency approval option is required for this configuration.
6. Does the 330130-090-10-00 include armor?
No. This is the FluidLoc cable configuration without armored cable construction. If additional mechanical protection is required, an armored configuration should be selected instead.
7. Does this model include connector protectors?
The 10 configuration does not include the connector-protector option. Models using the appropriate connector-protector configurations should be selected when additional protection at the cable connection is required.
8. What is the approximate cable weight?
At approximately 34 g/m, a 9.0-meter cable has an estimated cable mass of approximately 0.31 kg. Actual supplied weight can vary slightly depending on termination and packaging.
9. What are the important installation dimensions?
The key dimensions are the 9.0-meter cable length, approximately 3.9 mm maximum FluidLoc cable diameter, connector dimensions, bend requirements, and available routing space. Since this is a flexible cable assembly, a rectangular product footprint is not applicable.
10. How does the 330130-090-10-00 differ from an armored FluidLoc cable?
The 330130-090-10-00 uses FluidLoc without armor. An armored FluidLoc configuration provides additional mechanical protection and is better suited to exposed cable routes where abrasion, impact, or physical contact is a concern. The non-armored 10 configuration is more compact and flexible when mechanical protection is not necessary.
