Bently Nevada 330104-05-10-50-02-RU 3300 XL 8mm Proximity Extension Cable

Brief Product Description

This coaxial extension cable transfers raw eddy current signals between proximity probes and sensor electronics. It enables continuous, non-contact measurement of shaft vibration and position in severe industrial settings.

Product Overview

The Bently Nevada 330104-05-10-50-02-RU serves as a vital bridge within the 3300 XL 8 mm Proximity Transducer System. Consequently, it transmits high-frequency radio frequency signals between the probe tip and the Proximitor sensor. This combined system generates an accurate electrical voltage output that corresponds directly to the gap distance from a conductive target. Reliability remains high because the design resists environmental degradation within challenging industrial equipment housings.

Industrial engineers regularly deploy this cable to monitor critical machinery utilizing fluid-film bearings. Because the assembly strictly adheres to API 670 industry specifications, it ensures linear range precision and temperature stability. Furthermore, the complete interchangeability of these system components eliminates the time-consuming necessity for custom bench calibrations during field replacement.
