Product Introduction
The Bently Nevada 21747-040-01 is an armored extension cable used with the 3300 XL and 7200 series proximity transducer systems. It connects the proximity probe to the Proximitor sensor, completing the probe-cable-driver loop for eddy current vibration and position measurement. This model is 4.0 meters (approximately 13.1 feet) in length, with a standard connector interface and coaxial construction. The cable is oil-resistant, crush-resistant, and rated for continuous use in harsh industrial environments. It is designed to maintain system calibration when used with compatible Bently Nevada probes and Proximitor units.

Application Scenarios
The 21747-040-01 extension cable is used wherever the distance between a proximity probe and its driver exceeds the standard probe cable length. Typical applications include:
Steam and gas turbines – Connecting probes mounted in the turbine casing to Proximitor units installed in a remote junction box or control cabinet.
Centrifugal and axial compressors – Extending signals from probe tips in bearing housings or seals to electronic monitoring racks located several meters away.
Large electric motors and generators – Routing vibration and axial position signals from motor bearing brackets to monitoring systems in control rooms.
Pumps and blowers (critical duty) – Allowing flexible placement of the Proximitor in less hostile environments while probes remain near the rotating shaft.
Keyphasor reference applications – Extending a once-per-turn probe signal to a 3500 series rack or portable analyzer.
Replacement or retrofit – Replacing damaged extension cables in existing 3300 XL or 7200 series monitoring installations without changing probes or Proximitor units.
