FAQ

• Q1: What are the standard applications for the Bently Nevada 3300 XL extension cable?
  The 3300 XL extension cable is primarily used in industrial settings requiring extended reach for 3300 XL 8 mm Proximitor Sensors, particularly in turbine and machinery monitoring systems.
• Q2: How do I determine the appropriate cable length for my installation?
  Consider the distance between your 3300 XL Proximitor Sensor and the monitoring system. The maximum allowable length for the extension cable is 305 meters (1,000 feet).
• Q3: Can I use silicone tape instead of the connector protector?
  Silicone tape is an option but is not recommended for applications where the probe-to-cable connection is exposed to turbine oil.
• Q4: What happens if I use a voltage higher than -23.5 Vdc?
  Operating at a voltage higher than -23.5 Vdc can result in reduced linear range, affecting measurement accuracy.
• Q5: Is the FluidLoc option necessary for all installations?
  The FluidLoc option is optional and is recommended if there is a concern about oil or other liquids leaking through the cable.
