Product Introduction
The Bently Nevada 330130-040-00-05 is a 3300 XL 8 mm extension cable used to connect a 3300 XL 8 mm proximity probe to a 3300 XL Proximitor sensor. It is part of the 3300 XL eddy-current transducer system, which measures shaft relative vibration, axial displacement, eccentricity, and keyphasor reference on rotating machinery.
The model code breaks down as follows:
| Segment | Value | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Base model | 330130 | 3300 XL extension cable |
| Length | 040 | 4.0 m cable length |
| Armor / temperature | 00 | Non-armored, standard temperature |
| Approval | 05 | Multi-license approval |
The 330130 series extension cable uses ClickLoc connectors to maintain signal integrity between the probe and the Proximitor sensor. The 3300 XL system is designed for full interchangeability, meaning individual components do not require matched calibration when replaced with the same series and size.
This cable is typically used in steam turbines, centrifugal compressors, gas turbines, generators, pumps, and fans where shaft vibration and displacement must be monitored continuously.

Exact compatibility should be confirmed against the probe model, Proximitor sensor model, and total system length.
Quality Control Process (DYNAMIC GENERATION)
- Part-number verification: Confirm 330130-040-00-05 on the cable label or packaging.
- Visual inspection: Check the cable jacket for cuts, crushing, oil damage, or insulation degradation.
- Connector inspection: Inspect both ClickLoc connectors for bent pins, corrosion, seal damage, or loose locking rings.
- Continuity test: Verify cable continuity and insulation resistance if test equipment is available.
- System length check: Confirm the total system length (probe + extension cable) matches the Proximitor sensor configuration.
- Label and approval check: Verify the 05 approval marking matches the site certification requirements.
Replacement Pitfall Guide (DYNAMIC GENERATION)
❗ Do not confuse 330130 with a probe or Proximitor sensor. The 330130 is an extension cable only. It cannot replace a 330105/330106 probe or a 330180 Proximitor sensor.
❗ Match the total system length. The 3300 XL system requires a consistent total length. Mixing incompatible probe and cable lengths may reduce linearity or cause measurement errors.
❗ Verify the armor option. The 00 option means non-armored. Replacing it with an armored cable may affect routing flexibility, bend radius, and mechanical fit.
❗ Confirm the approval suffix. The 05 approval option denotes multi-license approval. Substituting 00 (no approval) or CN may affect hazardous-area or regional compliance.
❗ Check connector compatibility. The cable must use ClickLoc connectors compatible with the connected probe and Proximitor sensor. Damaged or mismatched connectors can cause signal instability.
❗ Do not use as a standalone signal cable. The extension cable is part of an eddy-current transducer system and must be used with a matching 3300 XL 8 mm probe and Proximitor sensor.
Compatibility Matrix & Benchmarks
| Original Model | Replacement / Alternative | Compatibility Level | Migration Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Bently Nevada 330130-040-00-05 | Same 330130-040-00-05 | Direct | Match full order code, length, armor, and approval. |
| Bently Nevada 330130-040-00-00 | 330130-040-00-05 | Needs Verification | Different approval option; confirm site certification needs. |
| Bently Nevada 330130-040-00-CN | 330130-040-00-05 | Needs Verification | Different approval option; verify regional compliance. |
| Bently Nevada 330130-040-01-05 | 330130-040-00-05 | Needs Verification | Different armor/temperature option; verify mechanical and environmental fit. |
| Bently Nevada 330130-045-00-05 | 330130-040-00-05 | Needs Verification | Different cable length (4.5 m vs. 4.0 m); verify total system length. |
| Bently Nevada 330106-05-30-10-02-05 | 330130-040-00-05 | Not direct | 330106 is a probe; 330130 is an extension cable. |
Benchmarks:
- 3300 XL 8 mm extension cable for shaft vibration and displacement systems.
- 4.0 m non-armored cable with ClickLoc connectors.
- Standard temperature rating.
- Multi-license approval (option 05).
- Must be used with a matching 3300 XL 8 mm proximity probe and Proximitor sensor.
- Third-party listings that describe 330130 as a probe, transmitter, or 4–20 mA sensor are incorrect.
