Bently Nevada 16925-20 20-Foot Industrial Transducer Extension Cable

Product Description

The Bently Nevada 16925-20 is a ruggedized 20-foot (6.1 meters) coaxial interconnect cable engineered for critical asset condition monitoring systems. This high-integrity signal path links physical transducers directly to institutional machinery protection monitors.

Technical Specification Matrix

Core Functionality and Applications

This interconnect cable forms a shielded bridge between field sensors and centralized control infrastructure. Industrial facilities deploy this hardware to interface 330400 and 330425 accelerometers with permanent safety monitors. By supporting both 50g and 75g peak acceleration measurement ranges, the assembly captures high-frequency phenomena. Consequently, operators can track gear mesh frequencies, detect casing unbalance, and pinpoint shaft misalignment.

The robust coaxial architecture shields weak analog signals from electromagnetic interference. For this reason, the assembly operates effectively on bearing housings, heavy process pump casings, and large steam turbine enclosures. These settings rely on flawless telemetry to execute automated emergency trip sequences.

Material Engineering and Environmental Resilience

• Low-Loss Electrical Shielding: High-grade internal conductors achieve a low core capacitance of 110 pF/meter or less. This design preserves the wave amplitude of high-frequency signals across the entire 20-foot run.
• Oil-Resistant PVC Armor: A premium industrial-grade PVC jacket protects the copper shielding from chemical degradation. This layer successfully repels synthetic lubricants, moisture ingress, and corrosive process fluids.
• Thermal Range Stability: The internal dielectric materials sustain nominal electrical properties from -40°C up to +100°C. This stability prevents signal drift when routing cables past hot machine casings.
• Full API 670 Standard Alignment: The cable design satisfies the technical construction guidelines mandated by the API 670 standard. This alignment ensures compliance when integrating the cable into modern safety monitor layouts.
