Bently Nevada 3300/03-02-01 Extension Cable | 3300 XL Series

3300/03-02-01 Extension Cable for 3300 XL Systems

Extend your monitoring reach with the Bently Nevada 3300/03-02-01 extension cable—engineered specifically for 3300 XL proximity transducer systems where standard cable lengths don't meet installation requirements.

🔌 Technical Overview

Part Number: 3300/03-02-01
Product Family: 3300 XL Proximity System
Cable Type: Precision coaxial extension
Connector Style: BNC male to BNC female
Impedance: 50 ohms (system-matched)
Shielding: Dual-layer braid for maximum EMI rejection
Jacket: Industrial PVC, oil and chemical resistant
Operating Temperature: -40°C to +85°C
Compliance: RoHS, CE, API 670 compatible systems

🎯 Purpose-Built Performance

Signal Integrity First: Unlike generic BNC cables, the 3300/03-02-01 maintains the precise impedance and capacitance characteristics required by Bently Nevada proximity systems. This means zero calibration drift when you add cable length to your measurement chain.

Noise Rejection: Industrial environments are electrically hostile—VFDs, welders, motors, and high-voltage equipment create interference that can corrupt sensor signals. The dual-layer shielding on this cable provides superior protection, ensuring clean data reaches your monitoring system.

Mechanical Durability: The industrial-grade jacket resists oils, coolants, and solvents while maintaining flexibility through thousands of installation cycles and temperature swings.

🏭 Installation Scenarios

✅ Panel Relocation: Moving monitoring cabinets away from machinery for safety or accessibility
✅ Retrofit Projects: Adding sensors to existing equipment with challenging cable routing
✅ Multi-Level Facilities: Bridging vertical distances between machine and control room
✅ Distributed Monitoring: Connecting remote sensor locations to centralized data acquisition
✅ Temporary Installations: Test setups and commissioning activities requiring flexible cable runs

⚡ System Compatibility

Works seamlessly with all 3300 XL proximitor models and 8mm proximity probes. Can be daisy-chained with additional extension cables to achieve custom installation distances—consult your system documentation for maximum total cable length specifications to maintain API 670 compliance.

Compatible with 3500 rack monitoring systems, standalone trip modules, and direct PLC/DCS interfaces. The standard BNC connectors ensure quick, error-free installation without special tools.

🛠️ Installation Best Practices

Cable Routing: Avoid running parallel to power cables; maintain 12-inch minimum separation from high-voltage conductors. Use cable trays or conduit for mechanical protection in high-traffic areas.

Connector Care: Hand-tighten BNC connectors with a quarter-turn past finger-tight. Over-torquing can damage the center pin and degrade signal quality.

Testing: After installation, verify system operation with a known-good target to confirm proper signal levels and absence of noise.
