Interconnect Cable, 3-conductor shielded 22 AWG
armored cable with 3-socket plug at one end
terminal lugs at the other end
Minimum length of 3.0 ft (0.9 m)
The 16710-30 is a 30-foot industrial-grade stainless steel armored interconnect cable, developed specifically for 330400 and 330425 accelerometers. Featuring 3-conductor shielded 22 AWG wire, the cable delivers outstanding EMI immunity, oil resistance, flame retardancy, and wear protection, with a 3-socket sensor plug on one end and terminal lugs on the other to ensure stable transmission of casing acceleration signals from critical machinery in harsh environments. It is widely used in critical applications like gear mesh monitoring, where the connected 330400 model fully complies with American Petroleum Institute Standard 670 (offering a 50 g peak amplitude range and 100 mV/g sensitivity), while the 330425 model shares the identical engineering configuration but provides a larger amplitude range (75 g peak) and a sensitivity of 25 mV/g.
Equipped with a stainless steel metal armor layer to withstand heavy foot traffic, high pressure, and accidental scratches on-site, preventing internal wire breakage
Utilizes a 3-conductor shielded 22 AWG wire to block electromagnetic interference from high-power motors and variable frequency drives, ensuring distortion-free high-frequency vibration signals
Features an oil-resistant and flame-retardant PVC outer jacket, enabling long-term stable performance in harsh environments with chemical corrosion, oil stains, high humidity, or temperature extremes
The Bently Nevada 16710-30 serves as the baseline, most critical electro-physical barrier within large-scale rotating machinery condition monitoring networks. The structural properties of its armored outer jacket allow it to withstand heavy axial tensile loads while delivering exceptional torsional protection inside congested, dusty cable trays. In terms of electrical architecture, its internal shield layer is reliably tied to the safety barrier or monitor common (COM) at the cabinet side via a dedicated drain wire for single-point grounding, creating a complete Faraday cage across the multi-meter transmission path to minimize parasitic capacitance and high-frequency ground loop interference.
Acting as the front-end extension for vibration monitoring modules such as the 3500/42M or 3500/70M, the 16710-30 undergoes rigorous factory dielectric withstand and impedance matching tests, the low-impedance construction of its internal conductors ensures that differential or single-ended AC signals experience no phase lag or high-frequency attenuation over extended distances, thereby enabling monitors to precisely capture transient waveform flaws during machine startup or abnormal impacts

Petroleum Refining
Transmits high-frequency vibration signals from casing sensors to protect fluid catalytic cracking (FCC) air blowers and hydrocarbon process gas compressors from catastrophic failure.
Thermal Power Generation
Conveys continuous vibration data to the 3500 rack system to detect shaft unbalance, blade defects, or misalignment in multi-megawatt power generators.
Gas Turbine Power Plants
Forwards critical acceleration signals from gas turbine casings under high-temperature environments to track aeroderivative or frame-type turbine health.
Hydroelectric Power
Links sensors on Francis, Kaplan, or Pelton wheel bearing housings to control rooms to detect hydraulic instability, cavitation, or thrust bearing wear.
Wind Energy Generation
Transmits high-frequency acceleration signals from the planetary and high-speed gear stages to identify early gear mesh faults or bearing pitting in remote nacelles.
Steel and Metal Processing
Route vibration data from heavy-duty gearboxes and finishing mill stands, enduring strong mechanical impacts, heat, and high electrical interference.
Avoid sharp kinks or dead bends caused by pressure on the metal armor, ensuring the minimum bending radius is strictly maintained during routing. The cable shield must be grounded at the cabinet side only, dual-ended grounding is strictly prohibited to prevent ground loop interference. Splicing or cutting in the field is forbidden, and any damaged cable must be replaced entirely to avoid weak vibration signal distortion. Additionally, when deployed in hazardous locations like Zone 1, it must be paired strictly with intrinsically safe barriers to comply with explosion-proof regulations.
