The Bently Nevada 330730-080-02-00, also cataloged as the 330730 Extension Cable, operates as a dedicated hardware component for high-frequency signal transmission between proximity probes and Proximitor sensors within 3500 Machinery Protection System networks. It conducts high-frequency excitation signals while returning raw AC dynamic vibration and DC gap voltage readings across the physical transducer interface without signal attenuation.
The ordering suffix structure for the 330730-080-02-00 extension cable defines the following hardware options:
| Parameter | Specification |
|---|---|
| Model | 330730-080-02-00 |
| Brand | Bently Nevada |
| Origin | United States |
| Weight | 0.36 kg (Shipping Weight: 1.5 kg) |
| Dimensions | 8.0 m length, 11 mm transducer system standard |
| Operating Temp | -51 deg C to +177 deg C |
| Power Consumption | Passive physical media (0 W) |
| Cable Capacitance | 69.9 pF/m (21.3 pF/ft) typical |
| Cable Construction | 75 ohm triaxial, fluoroethylene propylene (FEP) insulation |
| Protection Feature | Connector protectors on ClickLock miniature coaxial connectors |
| System Matching | 8.0 m cable (configured for 9.0 m total matched system length with 1.0 m probe) |
The 330730-080-02-00 extension cable maintains a tight 69.9 pF/m capacitance tolerance to preserve linear eddy-current probe scaling (3.94 V/mm or 100 mV/mil output response) across the entire dynamic range. Deviations in physical cable capacitance directly shift the LC resonant circuit frequency of the 3300 XL Proximitor sensor, introducing measurement errors into rotor dynamics tracking and phase angle calculations.
During field commissioning, gap voltage validation targets a nominal -10 VDC reading at the Proximitor output terminals when the probe rests at mid-span mechanical clearance. The integrated connector protectors under option 02 insulate the ClickLock miniature coaxial interface from liquid ingress and environmental contamination, ensuring consistent cross-talk suppression in high-density cable trays.
Q: Can the 330730-080-02-00 extension cable be cut or modified in the field if 8.0 m is longer than required?
A: No. Altering the cable length changes the total system electrical capacitance and resistance, which invalidates the factory calibration curve of the Proximitor sensor and introduces significant scale factor errors into displacement and vibration measurements.
Q: What specific function do the connector protectors serve on the 02 cable option?
A: The connector protectors provide a rubberized physical boot over the miniature coaxial connections. This prevents conductive moisture, oil, and dust from entering the male/female pin interface, eliminating high-resistance leakage paths that alter gap bias voltage readings.
