330130-045-00-00 is a Bently Nevada 3300 XL series standard extension cable with a total length of 4.5 meters (14.8 feet). This model features standard FEP-insulated cable and does not include armor, connector protectors, or hazardous area approvals – a basic configuration extension cable.
It is an essential component of the 3300 XL 8 mm eddy current probe system, designed for installations requiring the specific 4.5 meter length to match a 0.5 meter probe to form a complete 5 meter system, or for medium-distance runs where 4.0 meters is too short but 5.0 meters is excessive. In the 3300 XL system, Proximitor Sensors are available in 5 m and 9 m total system lengths. When using a 0.5 meter probe (e.g., 330101-XX-05-XX), a 4.5 meter extension cable is required to form a complete 5 m system (0.5 m + 4.5 m = 5 m). This model is specifically designed for such precise total length matching.
Model Breakdown: 330130-045-00-00 Configuration Details
Following Bently Nevada’s part number coding system (refer to datasheet Pages 18-19), the fields in this model number represent the following:
Field | Code | Parameter | Description |
Base Model | 330130
| 3300 XL Standard Extension Cable | Compatible with 3300 XL 8 mm and 3300 5 mm series probes |
Length Option | 045
| 4.5 meters (14.8 ft) | Total cable length for precise system total length matching |
Cable Option | 00
| Standard Cable | FEP-insulated triaxial cable, temperature rating -52°C to +177°C |
Agency Approval | 00
| Not Required | Standard industrial version for non-hazardous areas |
Key Configuration Note: The 045 length option is the defining feature of this model. In a 3300 XL system, when using a 0.5 meter probe (e.g., 330101-XX-05-XX), a 4.5 meter extension cable is required to form a complete 5 m system (0.5 m + 4.5 m = 5 m). This model is specifically designed for such precise total length matching, complementing the common 4.0 m cable (which pairs with a 1.0 m probe).
Application Scenarios & Selection Guide
330130-045-00-00 is suitable for the following typical applications:
Precise Total Length Matching for 5 m Systems (0.5 m Probe): When using a 0.5 meter probe (e.g., 330101-XX-05-XX), a 4.5 meter extension cable is required to form a complete 5 m system (0.5 m + 4.5 m = 5 m). This is the primary application for this model.
Medium-Distance Signal Transmission: When the installation requires a cable longer than 4.0 meters but not a full 5.0 meters, the 4.5 meter length provides a flexible option, avoiding excess cable coiling.
Standard Industrial Environments: With 00 approval option, suitable for non-hazardous industrial plants, compressor stations, or auxiliary equipment monitoring where explosion-proof certifications are not required.
Interchangeability with Other 4.5 m Configurations: For armored, connector protector, FluidLoc, or hazardous area approved versions in the same length, refer to other cable options (e.g., 330130-045-01-00, 330130-045-02-00, etc.).
Selection Notes:
Total Length Matching: Probe length + extension cable length = Proximitor Sensor total system length (5 m or 9 m). Verify your probe length: if using a 0.5 m probe, select this model (4.5 m); if using a 1.0 m probe, select a 4.0 m extension cable (e.g., 330130-040-00-00).
Length Verification: 4.5 m is the total length including connectors. Confirm that the field routing distance is within 4.5 m to avoid cables being too short or excessively long.
Ambient Temperature: If the application environment exceeds +177°C, consider the ETR (Extended Temperature Range) extension cable series (e.g., 330190-045-00-00).
Connector Protection: If the installation environment has oil mist or requires conduit routing, consider versions with connector protectors (e.g., 330130-045-02-00).
Comparison with Common Lengths
Model | Length | Typical Matching Probe | System |
330130-040-00-00 | 4.0 m | 1.0 m probe | 5 m system |
330130-045-00-00 | 4.5 m | 0.5 m probe | 5 m system |
330130-080-00-00 | 8.0 m | 1.0 m probe | 9 m system |
330130-085-00-00 | 8.5 m | 0.5 m probe | 9 m system |
Standard 5 m systems are typically composed of a 1.0 m probe + 4.0 m cable, or a 0.5 m probe + 4.5 m cable. Choose the extension cable length that matches your probe. The 4.5 m length complements the 4.0 m length, covering the system length requirement for 0.5 m probes.
Mechanical Dimensions & Installation
Cable Outer Diameter: Standard cable 3.68 mm (0.145 in) maximum
Connector: Features the ClickLoc design. Finger-tighten until an audible "click" is heard — no special tools are required.
Installation Tips: When routing through conduit, use a pull rope or fish tape attached to the cable jacket (not the connector) to avoid stress. If connector protection is needed, install connector protectors (part numbers 40113-02 or 40180-02) in the field.
