Vibration Monitoring Solution – Bently Nevada 16710-13 | 3300 Series Proximity System
The Bently Nevada 16710-13 Interconnect Cable is a precision-engineered signal cable designed for the Bently Nevada 3300 Series proximity transducer system. It provides a reliable, low-noise electrical path between the proximitor/extension cable and the monitoring rack, ensuring accurate shaft vibration and position data in critical rotating machinery applications.
Where This Product Is Used
The 16710-13 is specified by rotating machinery engineers and reliability teams across heavy industry wherever continuous vibration monitoring is mandatory:
- Steam & Gas Turbines – Shaft radial vibration and axial position monitoring per API 670
- Centrifugal Compressors – Real-time rotor dynamics surveillance in petrochemical and LNG plants
- Boiler Feed Pumps – Bearing health monitoring in power generation facilities
- Gearboxes & Expanders – High-speed shaft displacement measurement in refinery service
- Marine Propulsion Systems – Continuous shaft monitoring in shipboard machinery rooms
- Offshore Platforms – Hazardous-area vibration monitoring on gas compression trains

Application-Specific FAQ
Q: Is the 16710-13 compatible with the Bently Nevada 3500 monitoring rack?
A: Yes. The 16710-13 interconnect cable is designed for the 3300 Series proximitor output and connects to the field wiring terminal of 3500 Series monitor cards via standard signal wiring practices.
Q: Can this cable be used in a hazardous (classified) area?
A: The cable itself is passive; hazardous-area suitability depends on the complete system’s ATEX/IECEx certification. Consult your system documentation and safety engineer before installation in Zone 1/2 or Division 1/2 areas.
Q: What is the difference between an extension cable and an interconnect cable?
A: The extension cable runs from the probe tip to the proximitor. The interconnect cable (16710-13) runs from the proximitor output to the monitor rack input — it carries the conditioned DC gap voltage signal, not the raw RF oscillator signal.
Q: Do you supply a Certificate of Conformance (CoC)?
A: Yes, a CoC is available upon request for all orders. Please specify this requirement when placing your order or in your RFQ email.
Q: Can I order multiple units for a plant-wide spares program?
A: Absolutely. We offer volume pricing for quantities of 5 or more. Contact us for a tiered quote.
