84661-30 Bently Nevada Velomitor Interconnect Cable

The Bently Nevada 84661-30 is a crucial component within a Bently Nevada machinery protection and condition monitoring system, specifically serving as a proximity probe extension cable. It acts as an essential link, connecting the proximity probe (such as a 3300 XL 8 mm or 5 mm probe) to its corresponding Proximitor Sensor or directly to certain monitoring modules in the 3500 Series system.

The primary purpose of this cable is to extend the reach of the proximity probe, allowing for installations where the physical distance between the probe's mounting location on the machine and the monitoring rack or Proximitor Sensor is greater than the integral cable length of the probe itself.

• Signal Fidelity and Integrity: Designed with high-quality coaxial construction and shielding to ensure that the delicate eddy current signals from the proximity probe are transmitted to the Proximitor Sensor or monitoring module with minimal noise interference or signal degradation. This is crucial for accurate vibration and gap measurements.

• Precise Impedance Matching: Engineered to have a precise impedance (typically 75 Ω or 93 Ω, depending on the Bently Nevada system) that perfectly matches the proximity probe and Proximitor Sensor.

• Standardized Connectors: Features specialized coaxial connectors (often with a "ClickLoc" mechanism) that ensure a secure, low-resistance, and reliable connection between the probe's integral cable and the Proximitor Sensor or relevant monitor input.
