Bently Nevada 330130-040-00-00/CN – Extension Cable | 3300 Series Proximity Transducer System
Engineering Background
The Bently Nevada 3300 Series Proximity Transducer System is the industry benchmark for non-contact vibration and position measurement in rotating machinery. The extension cable (330130-040-00-00/CN) is a precision-matched interconnect component that bridges the proximitor/driver and the transducer probe, maintaining signal integrity across the full measurement chain. Correct cable selection is critical: impedance mismatch or incorrect length directly affects gap voltage calibration and system sensitivity.
Product Positioning
This extension cable is engineered for OEM-specification replacement and new-build installations in turbomachinery protection systems, compressor trains, and generator sets where Bently Nevada 3300 Series instrumentation is specified. It is the preferred choice for maintenance engineers requiring a drop-in, calibration-verified replacement without system re-commissioning.

System Architecture & Signal Flow
The 3300 Series measurement chain operates as follows:
Probe Tip → Extension Cable (330130-040-00-00/CN) → Proximitor/Driver → Signal Conditioner → DCS / Vibration Monitor
The extension cable carries the RF oscillator signal from the proximitor to the probe, and returns the demodulated DC gap voltage back. Total system cable length (probe integral cable + extension cable) must remain within the Bently Nevada-specified range for the selected probe model to maintain ±5% sensitivity accuracy. For 3300 XL 8mm probes, the standard system length is 5 m (probe) + 12.2 m (this extension) = 17.2 m total — within the qualified 15–20 m window.

Technical FAQ
Q: Can I use a different length extension cable with my existing probe?
A: Only if the total system cable length remains within the Bently Nevada-specified range for your probe model. Substituting cable lengths without recalculating total system length will shift the gap voltage and invalidate calibration. Always consult the system TDM (Technical Data Manual) before substituting.
Q: Is the /CN suffix a different electrical specification from the standard part?
A: The /CN suffix denotes the China-market configuration, which may include localized packaging and documentation. Electrically and mechanically, the part is identical to the base 330130-040-00-00 specification.
Q: What is the shelf life of an unused extension cable?
A: Indefinite when stored in original packaging in a dry, temperature-controlled environment (15–30 °C, <70% RH). Connectors should be inspected for oxidation before installation if stored >5 years.
Q: Do you provide ATEX/IECEx certified versions?
A: Bently Nevada offers ATEX/IECEx certified variants for hazardous area installations. Please specify your area classification (Zone 1/2, Gas Group, Temperature Class) when inquiring.
Q: Minimum order quantity?
A: MOQ is 1 piece. Volume pricing available for orders of 5+ units.
