Product Overview

The Bently Nevada CB2W100-125 is a high-quality interconnect cable. It belongs to the CB2W100 family of accessories. This cable connects sensors to monitoring equipment. You can use the CB2W100-125 for vibration and proximity probes. The cable has a splash proof MIL-C 5015 connector. Its yellow Teflon jacket resists harsh industrial environments. Industrial users trust this cable for reliable signal transmission.

Technical Specifications

The CB2W100-125 delivers robust performance for long sensor runs. Below are the core technical details.

Cable Specifications:

• Connector Type: MIL-C 5015 (2 socket, splash proof).

• Connector Grade: Premium, isolated to blunt cut.

• Wire Gauge: 20 AWG.

• Construction: Twisted pair, shielded.

• Jacket Material: Yellow Teflon®.

• Included Items: Locking ring, adapter seal, and O-ring.

Length Specifications:

• Ordered Length: 125 feet (38.1 meters).

• Part Number Suffix: 125 indicates the length in feet.

Physical Specifications:

• Made in: U.S.A.

• Connector Style: Splash proof (not submersible).

Important Compatibility Notes

Please read these warnings before purchasing the CB2W100-125.

Not Compatible With:

• The CB2W100-125 is not recommended for use with the 200350 Accelerometer. The O-ring will not form a proper seal with that sensor model.

Signal Attenuation Note:

• Cable lengths greater than 30 meters (100 feet) will experience some attenuation. This affects higher frequency amplitudes. This is especially true when using the AM3100T2-Z2 Accelerometer. For very high frequency applications, consider a shorter cable.

Installation Guidelines

Install the CB2W100-125 between your sensor and monitor. Verify both connector ends mate properly. Hand-tighten the locking ring securely. Do not over-torque or use pliers. Check that the O-ring seats correctly in the mating connector. Route the cable away from high-power wires. Use cable trays or conduit for protection. Avoid sharp bends that can damage the Teflon jacket. The CB2W100-125 is splash proof but not submersible. Keep connections dry and above standing water levels.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

1. Can I cut the CB2W100-125 to a shorter length?
Technically yes, but this voids the warranty. The CB2W100-125 has a premium isolated blunt cut design. Cutting requires special tools and re-termination.

2. Is this cable suitable for direct burial underground?
No. The splash proof rating is for above-ground wet areas only. For direct burial, place the CB2W100-125 inside a sealed conduit.

3. What does the yellow Teflon jacket provide?
Teflon offers excellent chemical and heat resistance. The yellow color provides high visibility in industrial panels. The CB2W100-125 jacket resists oils and solvents.

4. Can I use this cable with non-Bently sensors?
Yes, if the sensor uses a matching MIL-C 5015 connector. However, verify the pinout and sealing compatibility. The CB2W100-125 O-ring seal is designed for Bently sensor interfaces.

5. What is the maximum frequency this 125 ft cable supports?
For the AM3100T2-Z2 accelerometer, expect some high frequency attenuation. The CB2W100-125 at 125 ft is best for low to medium frequency vibration monitoring. For high frequency measurements, use a shorter cable.
