BENTLY 330171-00-12-10-01-05
Product Introduction
BENTLY 330171-00-12-10-01-05 is a 12-meter extension cable for 3300 XL 8 mm proximity probes. It bridges the gap between field sensors and rack-mounted Proximitor modules.
This cable maintains 50 Ω ±5% characteristic impedance to prevent signal reflections. The BENTLY 330171-00-12-10-01-05 features ClickLoc镀金铜接头 for tool-free, secure connections. Verify total system cable length against OEM limits.

Quality Control Process (Engineer’s Perspective)
- Incoming Verification: Trace source via serial number. Inspect connectors for bent pins or corrosion.
- Live Functional Test: Connect to TK-3E calibrator. Verify signal transmission across full length.
- Electrical Parameter Test: Measure impedance (50 Ω ±5%) and insulation (500 V Megger, >10 MΩ).
- Cable Integrity Test: Check continuity and shield grounding at both ends.
- Final QC & Packaging: Seal in anti-static bag. Apply QC Passed label with date.
Replacement Pitfall Guide
❗ Cable Length Mismatch: The BENTLY 330171-00-12-10-01-05 is 12 meters. Total system length (probe + extension) must match Proximitor calibration.
❗ Impedance Mismatch: Never substitute with generic coaxial cable. The 50 Ω impedance is critical for eddy current signal integrity.
❗ Connector Torque: ClickLoc connectors are finger-tightened. Do not use wrenches. Over-torquing damages the locking mechanism.
❗ Armored vs. Non-Armored: This is a non-armored cable. Do not use in high-vibration or crush-prone areas without conduit.
❗ ESD & Handling: Route away from VFD cables. EMI can corrupt the low-level eddy current signal.
Keep these in mind and you’ll cut 90% of rework time.
