Vibration Monitoring Solution – Bently Nevada 16710-08 | 3500 Series Interconnect Cable
Where This Product Is Used
The Bently Nevada 16710-08 Interconnect Cable is a critical wiring component used in continuous machinery protection and condition monitoring systems. Typical deployment environments include:
- Gas turbines & steam turbines — connecting proximity probes to 3500 Series monitor rack modules for shaft vibration and eccentricity measurement
- Centrifugal compressors — linking eddy-current transducer systems in API 670-compliant installations
- Pumps & motors — routing low-noise signals from field sensors to rack-mounted monitors in petrochemical and power generation plants
- Rotating machinery in refineries, LNG terminals, and offshore platforms — where signal integrity over long cable runs is mandatory
- OEM skid packages — pre-wired turbomachinery control panels requiring factory-spec interconnect assemblies
Technical Specifications
- Part Number: 16710-08
- Series: Bently Nevada 3500 Machinery Protection System
- Cable Type: Interconnect Cable (signal-level, shielded)
- Compatible Systems: 3500 Series monitor rack, proximitor/seismic transducer loops
- Connector Style: Per Bently Nevada OEM specification
- Weight: 400 g (approx.)
- Application Standard: API 670 (Machinery Protection Systems)

Why Engineers Specify This Model
- OEM-matched impedance — preserves signal fidelity across the full transducer-to-monitor loop, eliminating ground loops and EMI pickup common with generic cables
- Drop-in replacement — identical pinout and connector geometry to factory-installed assemblies; no re-termination or adapter required
- Qualified for hazardous areas — shielding and construction meet requirements for Class I Division 2 / Zone 2 installations when used within the certified 3500 system architecture
- Reduced commissioning risk — using the correct Bently Nevada part number avoids loop calibration errors that arise from mismatched cable capacitance
- Long service life — industrial-grade jacket material rated for continuous service in high-vibration, high-temperature machine environments

Application-Specific FAQ
Q: Is the 16710-08 compatible with both 3500/42 and 3500/45 monitor modules?
A: Yes. The 16710-08 interconnect cable is designed for use within the 3500 Series rack architecture and is compatible with all standard 3500 I/O module configurations. Verify your specific rack slot assignment with your system drawing.
Q: Can this cable be used with non-Bently Nevada monitors?
A: The cable is engineered to OEM Bently Nevada specifications. Use with third-party monitors may require impedance verification. Contact our technical team for guidance.
Q: What is the maximum cable run length before signal degradation?
A: Maximum loop resistance and capacitance limits are defined by the 3500 Series system specification. Refer to Bently Nevada document 141228-01 for transducer loop wiring guidelines.
Q: Do you supply cables for ATEX-certified installations?
A: Yes. Please specify your hazardous area classification (ATEX Zone / NEC Division) when requesting a quotation so we can confirm the appropriate certified assembly.
Q: Can Konmask provide a Certificate of Conformance (CoC)?
A: Documentation availability depends on the specific lot. Contact us at the time of order to confirm CoC and traceability documentation.
