Vibration Monitoring Solution – Bently Nevada 16710-45 | 3300 Series Proximity System
Where This Product Is Used
The Bently Nevada 16710-45 Interconnect Cable is a precision-engineered signal cable designed for use within the 3300 Series Proximity Transducer System. It is deployed in mission-critical rotating machinery monitoring applications across the following industries:
- Oil & Gas: Centrifugal compressors, gas turbines, and pipeline pumping stations where continuous shaft vibration monitoring is mandatory per API 670.
- Power Generation: Steam turbines and hydro-generators requiring real-time radial vibration and axial position measurement.
- Petrochemical & Refining: Reactor feed pumps, expanders, and blowers in hazardous-area installations.
- Marine & Offshore: Propulsion turbines and auxiliary machinery on FPSOs and offshore platforms.
- Pulp & Paper / Heavy Industry: High-speed rotating equipment where unplanned downtime carries severe production cost.
In each environment, the 16710-45 serves as the critical signal path between the proximity probe and the Proximitor® sensor, ensuring low-noise, impedance-matched transmission of the eddy-current displacement signal.
Technical Specifications

Why Engineers Specify This Model
- System Integrity: Factory-matched to the 3300 Series probe/Proximitor pair; substituting non-OEM cables introduces impedance mismatch and gap voltage error.
- Signal Fidelity: Precision coaxial construction minimizes capacitance variation, preserving the linear output range (–18 VDC nominal) required by Bently Nevada monitors.
- Hazardous-Area Compatibility: Designed to support intrinsically safe (IS) installations when used with approved barriers and Proximitor configurations.
- Plug-and-Play Replacement: Drop-in replacement for existing 3300 Series installations; no recalibration of the Proximitor required when cable length is unchanged.
- Long Service Life: Fluoropolymer jacket resists hydrocarbons, steam, and cleaning solvents common in turbomachinery environments.

Application-Specific FAQ
Q: Can I use the 16710-45 with a 7200 Series probe?
A: No. The 16710-45 is designed exclusively for the 3300 Series system. The 7200 Series uses a different impedance specification and connector standard.
Q: Does changing the interconnect cable length affect system calibration?
A: Yes. The total cable system length (probe + interconnect) determines the Proximitor gap voltage output. Always verify the combined length matches the original system design. Contact us if you need a different length.
Q: Is this cable suitable for outdoor or subsea installations?
A: The standard 16710-45 is rated for industrial environments. For subsea or extreme outdoor exposure, consult Bently Nevada’s application engineering for armored variants.
Q: What is the lead time if not in stock?
A: Typical lead time is 2–4 weeks for new stock. Expedited sourcing from verified surplus may be available within 3–5 business days. Contact us for current availability.
Q: Do you provide a certificate of conformance (CoC)?
A: Yes. A CoC is available upon request for all orders. Please specify at time of order.
