Bently Nevada 330780-90-00 – 9 m Extension Cable for 3300/3300 XL Proximity Transducer Systems
The Bently Nevada 330780-90-00 is, in most cases, used as a factory-terminated extension cable for 3300/3300 XL proximity transducer systems. If you’re maintaining turbines, compressors, or critical pumps, this cable bridges the probe and Proximitor sensor with stable, low-noise transmission. One thing I appreciate is how predictable the system performance is when you use a matched-length cable—signal accuracy typically stays right where it should be over long runs and tough environments.

Key Features
- 9.0 m system length – The “-90” build typically indicates a 9.0 m cable, helping you match total transducer system length for proper calibration.
- Optimized for proximity signals – Designed for eddy-current probe signals used in vibration and shaft position monitoring.
- Factory-molded terminations – Consistent shielding and strain relief reduce noise ingress and intermittent faults.
- Drop-in compatibility – Works with common Bently Nevada 3300/3300 XL probes and Proximitor sensors when configured for the same system length.
- Rugged jacket options – In many cases supplied with industrial-grade insulation that handles oil, heat, and tight routing better than generic cables.
- Service-friendly – From my experience, replacing a worn extension cable often restores signal quality without touching the probe or proximitor.
Technical Specifications

| Power Requirements | Passive component; no external power |
| Cable Length | 9.0 m (typical for “-90” build code) |
| Dimensions & Weight | Round coaxial cable; light-weight; bend radius per jacket spec (recommend ≥10× cable OD) |
| Operating Temperature | Follows jacket build; typically -40 to +85 °C in most installations |
| Signal I/O Type | Analog eddy-current proximity transducer signal (probe-to-Proximitor) |
| Communication Interfaces | None (passive cable; no bus/field protocol) |
| Installation Method | Fixed routing in conduit or cable tray; connect between probe and Proximitor sensor as a matched-length system |
Application Fields
Typically deployed in rotating machinery condition monitoring:
- Steam and gas turbines – shaft vibration and axial position
- Compressors and expanders – radial vibration on fluid-film bearings
- Large motors, generators, and pumps – bearing condition and alignment checks
- Refining, petrochemical, and power plants – where cable robustness and signal stability matter
Advantages & Value
- Compatibility you can trust – Pairs with common Bently Nevada 3300/3300 XL probes and Proximitor sensors when the system length is matched.
- Signal integrity – Proper capacitance and shielding help preserve calibration, especially on long runs near drives or MCCs.
- Lower lifecycle cost – Replacing the cable alone can restore measurement fidelity without touching the probe in the machine.
- Procurement simplicity – Standardized length code (“-90”) makes it straightforward to match spares to installed systems.
- Support for MRO teams – Technicians typically report faster turnarounds when they keep a few matched-length cables on hand.
Installation & Maintenance
- Cabinet & routing – Run in grounded metal conduit or tray. Keep separation from VFD outputs and high-voltage lines to limit EMI.
- Bend radius – Maintain a conservative bend radius (often ≥10× cable OD). Avoid pinch points at gland plates.
- System length – Match probe + extension cable to the Proximitor’s specified system length; mixing lengths can shift scale factors.
- Connections – Inspect connectors for contamination; reseat until fully engaged. Lightly clean with electronics-safe solvent if needed.
- Routine checks – During outages, verify insulation condition and continuity. If signals seem noisy, the cable is, in many cases, the quickest swap.
Quality & Certifications
- Quality system: Manufactured under ISO 9001 quality management (typical for the series)
- CE / RoHS: Conforms where applicable for low-voltage passive cabling
- Warranty: 365 days (provided by us)
Related/Supporting Components
You might pair the 330780-90-00 with compatible Bently Nevada 3300/3300 XL proximity probes and Proximitor sensors (for example, standard 8 mm systems) as long as the total system length matches. That’s usually the key to keeping calibration spot on.
Note: Specifications above reflect typical usage of the 330780-90-00 as an extension cable within the 3300/3300 XL ecosystem. If your installed base has special jackets or armored builds, share the full part string on the tag and we’ll verify compatibility before shipment.
