• ClickLoc™ Coaxial Connectors – Gold-plated miniature connectors require only finger-tight torque and feature a locking mechanism to prevent loosening from vibration 

• 75-ohm Triaxial Construction – FEP-insulated conductor with low capacitance for accurate high-frequency signal transmission 

• Wide Temperature Range – Standard version rated for -51°C to +177°C (-60°F to +350°F) 

• Fluid & Chemical Resistance – Jacket resists oils, solvents, and industrial contaminants 

Technical Specifications

Suffix Code Explanation

Core Advantages

1. Critical Signal Integrity

The 330130 extension cable uses 75-ohm triaxial construction with low capacitance (69.9 pF/m typical) to preserve the high-frequency components of proximity probe signals essential for accurate gap voltage measurement . Triple shielding rejects electromagnetic interference from variable frequency drives, motors, and power distribution systems .

2. Armored Protection for Harsh Environments

The Option 01 armored construction provides a stainless steel flexible sheath that shields the internal conductor from physical damage, abrasion, and compression. This makes the 330130-080-01-00 ideal for installations where cables are exposed to foot traffic, falling debris, or high-vibration machinery housings without the benefit of conduit .

3. Modular Interchangeability

The 3300 XL system's probes, extension cables, and Proximitor sensors are electrically and mechanically interchangeable. Parts can be swapped without matching or bench calibration, simplifying maintenance and reducing spare parts inventory .

4. ClickLoc™ Connector Reliability

The gold-plated ClickLoc™ connectors require only finger-tight torque (you feel a "click" when tight) and feature a patented locking mechanism to prevent loosening from vibration. No special tools are required for installation or removal .

System Integration Notes

The 3300 XL System is a Matched Set

A complete 3300 XL measurement system consists of three parts that must have consistent electrical lengths :

1. Proximity Probe – Mounts inside the machine, facing the shaft

2. Extension Cable (this item) – Links the probe to the Proximitor Sensor

3. Proximitor Sensor – Powers the probe and converts the signal to a usable output

Important: The total system electrical length (probe length + extension cable length) must equal the Proximitor Sensor's design length (typically 5 or 9 meters). For this 8.0 m extension cable, it is typically paired with a 1.0 m probe to create a 9.0 m system .

Installation Guidelines

• Route cables away from high-voltage power lines to minimize electromagnetic interference 

• Maintain minimum bend radius to prevent damage to the coaxial core 

• Secure armored cables using suitable clamps to prevent vibration-induced wear 

• Use appropriate connector protectors if connections are exposed to moisture or contaminants 

Applications

The 330130-080-01-00 is deployed across critical rotating machinery applications :

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What is the Bently Nevada 330130-080-01-00?

It is an 8.0-meter extension cable from the 3300 XL series, used to connect a proximity probe to a Proximitor sensor in machinery protection systems. This variant features stainless steel armor for mechanical protection .

Q2: What does each suffix in the part number mean?

080 = 8.0 meter length; 01 = Armored cable; 00 = No agency approval required .

Q3: Is this cable armored?

Yes, the 01 option code indicates this is an armored cable with a stainless steel flexible sheath .

Q4: What is the total length of this cable?

The total length is 8.0 meters (26.2 feet) .

Q5: What connector type does this cable use?

It features Miniature Coaxial ClickLoc™ connectors with gold plating. These require only finger-tight torque and feature a locking mechanism .

Q6: What is the temperature range of this cable?

The standard 330130 cable operates from -51°C to +177°C (-60°F to +350°F) .

Q7: Can I use this cable with any 3300 XL probe?

Yes, the 330130 extension cable is designed for the 3300 XL 8 mm proximity transducer system. However, the total system length (probe + extension cable) must match the Proximitor sensor's design length .

Q8: What is the recommended configuration for this 8.0 m cable?

This 8.0 m extension cable is typically paired with a 1.0 m probe to create a 9.0 m total system length, matching a 9.0 m Proximitor sensor .

Q9: Does the armor affect the electrical calibration?

No. The armor is external to the active electrical path. As long as the total length remains 8 meters, the cable maintains precise impedance matching for the 3300 XL system .

Q10: What is the advantage of the armored option over standard cable?

The stainless steel sheath prevents the cable from being crushed or kinked, significantly extending service life in areas where conduit is not available or practical .

Q11: Is this cable compatible with the 3300 XL ETR (Extended Temperature Range) system?

This is a standard temperature cable. For extreme high-temperature applications, consider the 330190 series ETR extension cable, which operates up to +260°C.
