Product Introduction
The Bently Nevada 330130-040-02-00 is a 3300 XL extension cable designed to link a 3300 XL proximity probe with a compatible 3300 XL proximitor. It has a 4.0 m cable length, standard construction, a large coax connector on the probe side, and a mini coax connector on the proximitor side.
This cable is commonly used in 3300 XL 8 mm vibration and displacement measurement channels. Its length must be combined with the probe cable length so that the total system length matches the proximitor calibration—typically 5.0 m, 7.0 m, or 9.0 m. Because it uses a large coax connector on the probe side, it is intended for probes equipped with a large coax interface rather than mini-coax-only probe ends. The “00” approval code means no special agency approval is specified, so it should be treated as a standard industrial cable unless the physical label shows otherwise.

Key Selling Points & Differentiators
- Exact 4.0 m length. Matches systems that require a 4.0 m extension cable to reach the correct total system length.
- Large coax probe-side connector. Suitable for probes that require a large coax interface rather than mini coax.
- Mini coax proximitor-side connector. Directly mates with standard 3300 XL proximitors.
- Standard cable construction. A straightforward, non-armored, non-FluidLoc variant for typical dry or protected installations.
- Clear boundary. This is an extension cable only—not a probe, not a proximitor, and not a complete sensor channel.
Quality Transparency SOP
- Part number verification. We confirm the label reads 330130-040-02-00 and matches the 3300 XL extension cable family.
- Length check. The cable is verified as a 4.0 m extension cable to avoid mismatches with 3.0 m, 4.5 m, or 5.0 m variants.
- Connector inspection. The large coax probe-side connector and mini coax proximitor-side connector are checked for bent pins, corrosion, or loose shells.
- Continuity and insulation check. Using a Fluke multimeter, we verify center conductor continuity and shield integrity from end to end.
- ESD-safe packing. The cable is coiled to the recommended bend radius, sealed in an anti-static bag, and foam-packed to prevent connector stress.
Technical Risk Avoidance
❗ Confirm total system length before installation. The probe cable length plus this 4.0 m extension cable must equal the proximitor system length—commonly 5.0 m, 7.0 m, or 9.0 m. A wrong total length can shift sensitivity and gap-voltage settings.
❗ Verify connector compatibility on both ends. This cable has a large coax probe-side connector and a mini coax proximitor-side connector. It will not fit probes or proximitors that require a different connector type.
❗ Do not assume armored or FluidLoc construction. Code “00” means standard cable. If the installation requires armor, FluidLoc, or connector protectors, this variant may not be suitable.
❗ Confirm approval requirements for hazardous areas. The “00” code indicates no special agency approval. Do not install in Zone 2 / Division 2 areas unless the physical label and approval drawing explicitly permit it.
❗ Keep connectors clean and dry. Eddy-current signal integrity depends on reliable coax connections. Contaminated or damaged connectors can cause unstable gap voltage or false vibration readings.
Buyer’s FAQ
Is this a complete vibration sensor? No. This is only the extension cable. A complete channel also requires a compatible 3300 XL proximity probe and a 3300 XL proximitor.
Can I use this with a 330105 or 330106 probe? Only if the probe has a large coax interface. Many 3300 XL probes use ClickLoc or mini coax connectors, so the probe-side connector must be confirmed before ordering.
Can I replace a 330130-040-00-00 with this? Not without checking connectors. The -00-00 variant uses mini coax on both ends, while the -02-00 variant uses a large coax connector on the probe side.
Can I replace a 330130-050-02-00 with this? Not without checking length. The -050- variant is 5.0 m, while this unit is 4.0 m. Changing cable length affects total system length and may require recalibration.
Does this include the probe or proximitor? No. Unless explicitly stated, this listing covers the extension cable only.
Is this genuine Bently Nevada? Yes. We sell genuine surplus inventory. The part number is verified against the physical label before dispatch.
What warranty applies? Standard 12-month warranty against DOA and functional defects. Damage from incorrect installation, connector mismatch, cable crushing, or oil ingress is not covered.
