Bently Nevada | 330930-060-00-05 | NSv Proximity Probe Extension Cable

Product Description

The Bently Nevada 330930-060-00-05 is a dedicated extension cable developed for the 3300 NSv (Narrow Side-view) proximity transducer system. It forms a critical link between the NSv proximity probe and the Proximitor® sensor or driver, preserving signal integrity for precise vibration and position measurement in space-constrained installations.

Engineered to match the electrical characteristics of NSv probes, this cable minimizes signal loss and electromagnetic interference across its full 6.0-meter length. Its low-noise coaxial construction ensures consistent performance in continuous-duty machinery protection and condition monitoring systems.

Key Technical Characteristics

The 330930-060-00-05 is optimized for compatibility and long-term reliability within Bently Nevada NSv measurement chains.

Electrical and Construction Features

• 75-ohm precision coaxial cable matched to NSv transducer requirements

• Low-noise design for accurate dynamic vibration and static displacement signals

• FEP (Fluoroethylene Propylene) insulation providing chemical resistance and thermal stability

• Factory-terminated connectors designed to maintain system calibration integrity

Mechanical and Physical Properties

• Cable length: 6.0 m (19.7 ft)

• Non-armored construction (standard option) for flexible routing in tight spaces

• Weight: 0.32 kg

Environmental Performance

Designed for harsh industrial environments, the 330930-060-00-05 maintains electrical stability under typical rotating equipment operating conditions.

• Operating temperature range: –20 °C to +80 °C (–4 °F to +176 °F)

• Storage temperature range: –40 °C to +85 °C (–40 °F to +185 °F)

• Suitable for standard industrial humidity levels and enclosed machinery housings

Ordering Code Interpretation

The ordering structure of 330930-060-00-05 defines its configuration and compliance status.

• 060: 6.0-meter cable length

• 00: Standard, non-armored jacket

• 05: Multiple international agency approvals

Typical Applications

This extension cable is commonly installed in rotating machinery monitoring systems where compact probe mounting is required.

• Centrifugal and axial compressors

• Steam and gas turbines

• Pumps and gearboxes

• Motors and auxiliary rotating equipment

It is particularly well suited for applications where clearance limitations prevent the use of standard 3300 XL probes.

Compatibility Notes

The 330930-060-00-05 is specifically designed for use with Bently Nevada 3300 NSv proximity probes and must be used as part of a correctly matched NSv transducer system. Mixing with non-NSv cables or probes may result in measurement errors or calibration drift.

FAQ

Q: Can this cable be used with 3300 XL probes?
A: No. The 330930-060-00-05 is electrically and mechanically matched to 3300 NSv probes only. 3300 XL systems require XL-series extension cables.

Q: Does this cable include stainless-steel armor?
A: No. The “00” option indicates a standard, non-armored cable. Armored variants are available under different ordering codes.

Q: Is recalibration required when replacing the extension cable?
A: When replaced with the same model and length, system recalibration is typically not required. Always follow site-specific maintenance procedures.
