Technical Specifications

The 330190-035-00-00 uses a 75Ω triaxial cable construction throughout. The extended temperature version features perfluoroalkoxy (PFA) insulation material. Standard cable insulation uses fluoroethylene propylene (FEP) as a comparison. This cable achieves a nominal center conductor resistance of 0.77 ± 0.12 Ω. The outer conductor resistance (RJACKET) measures 0.23 ± 0.05 Ω. Typical capacitance for the 330190-035-00-00 is 69.9 pF/m (21.3 pF/ft).

Temperature Range Performance

The 330190-035-00-00 operates across an extreme temperature spectrum. Operating and storage temperatures span from -52°C to +260°C (-62°F to +500°F). This ETR cable withstands heat that damages standard cables beyond 177°C. Therefore, it suits gas turbine and compressor monitoring applications. For high-temperature machinery, the 330190-035-00-00 provides uninterrupted signal transmission. Standard cables without ETR rating are limited to +177°C (+350°F) maximum.

Physical and Mechanical Properties

The 330190-035-00-00 features gold-plated brass on its connectors. Gold-plated beryllium copper is also used for certain connector parts. Maximum connector torque must stay at 0.565 N•m (5 in•lbf). The minimum cable bend radius is 25.4 mm (1.0 inch). This cable weighs only 34 g/m (0.4 oz/ft) for the standard version. An armored version weighs 103 g/m (1.5 oz/ft) if needed. The 330190-035-00-00 remains flexible despite its robust thermal construction.

Compatibility Information

3300 XL 8 mm components are electrically interchangeable with non-XL versions. They also physically interchange with 3300 5 mm and 8 mm components. However, you must observe the minimum permissible cable bend radius at all times. The 330190-035-00-00 works with all 3300 XL proximity probes without exception. It also pairs seamlessly with 3300 XL Proximitor sensors. For field wiring, use 0.2 to 1.5 mm2 (16 to 24 AWG) conductors. A 3-conductor shielded triad cable receives the strongest recommendation. Tinned field wiring provides the best long-term corrosion resistance.

System Integration

The 330190-035-00-00 forms an essential part of the monitoring chain. The probe connects to this extension cable as the first step. Then the extension cable connects directly to the Proximitor sensor. After that, field wiring runs from the sensor to the monitor. Maximum field wiring length reaches 305 meters (1,000 feet) total. For signal integrity, always check the frequency response graphs before installation. Signal rolloff will occur at high frequencies with longer field wiring lengths.

Linear Range and Gap Settings

The 330190-035-00-00 supports the standard 3300 XL linear range fully. This linear range spans 2 mm (80 mils) in total. Specifically, the linear range begins at approximately 0.25 mm (10 mils) from the target. It then extends from 0.25 to 2.3 mm (10 to 90 mils). This range corresponds to approximately -1 to -17 Vdc output. For radial vibration measurements, the recommended gap setting is -9 Vdc. This equals approximately 1.27 mm (50 mils) of physical gap. The 330190-035-00-00 transmits this signal without any degradation.

Agency Approvals

The 330190-035-00-00 includes approval option 00. This indicates no hazardous area certifications are required. Therefore, this cable suits only non-hazardous locations. Use it in general purpose industrial environments without explosive atmospheres. For Zone 0, Zone 1, or Zone 2 areas, choose a different approval option. The 330190-035-00-00 remains perfect for ordinary industrial monitoring applications.

Compliance Certifications

The 330190-035-00-00 complies with FCC Part 15 rules completely. This device may not cause harmful interference to other equipment. It must accept any interference received from external sources. For EMC, this cable meets European Directive 2014/30/EU requirements. Standards include EN 61000-6-2 for industrial immunity testing. Additionally, EN 61000-6-4 covers emissions for industrial environments. RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU compliance restricts hazardous substances effectively.

Maritime and Functional Safety

For marine applications, the 330190-035-00-00 meets 2019 ABS rules. These cover conditions of classification for vessels and offshore units. Offshore units and structures are also supported by these certifications. Functional safety ratings include SIL 2 with HFT = 0. Furthermore, SIL 3 is achievable with HFT = 1 configuration. For safety-critical systems, this cable provides reliable field-proven performance.

Installation Guidelines

Handle the 330190-035-00-00 with care to avoid damaging its connectors. Do not exceed the 25.4 mm (1.0 in) minimum bend radius during installation. Apply no more than 0.565 N•m (5 in•lbf) torque when connecting to probes. Keep all connectors clean and dry before mating them together. For standard industrial installation, follow normal wiring practices. Use proper cable supports to prevent strain on the 330190-035-00-00. Secure the cable away from moving machinery and hot surfaces. Protect the cable from direct flame or molten metal contact always.

Field Wiring Recommendations

Connect field wiring using 0.2 to 1.5 mm2 (16 to 24 AWG) conductors only. A 3-conductor shielded triad cable provides optimal electrical noise rejection. Tin-plated field wiring resists corrosion over many years of service. Keep field wiring runs under 305 meters (1,000 feet) for best performance. For high-frequency signals, shorter field wiring lengths produce better results. The 330190-035-00-00 transmits clean signals when properly installed throughout.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

1. What is the main advantage of this ETR cable over standard cable?
The 330190-035-00-00 uses PFA insulation for 260°C operation. Standard FEP cables only reach 177°C maximum temperature reliably.

2. Can I use this cable in hazardous areas with explosive gases?
No, the 330190-035-00-00 has approval option 00 for non-hazardous use only. Choose option 05 for ATEX or IECEx installations instead.

Yes, the 330190-035-00-00 works with both 3300 XL and legacy 3300 probes. All 5 mm and 8 mm systems are supported fully.

4. What happens if I bend this cable too sharply during installation?
Exceeding the 25.4 mm bend radius damages the 330190-035-00-00. The internal shield can crack, causing electrical noise and signal loss.

5. Does this cable require any special maintenance over its lifetime?
No, the 330190-035-00-00 requires no periodic maintenance. Simply keep connectors clean and protect the cable from physical damage.
