Application Advisory:
When routing the cable, consider protecting the
cable from exposure to RF (radio frequency) energy by shielding the
cable via grounded metal surfaces when possible. The product has
been design to tolerate this interference, but careful routing of the cable
can improve signal quality.
2.3.1 Routing Cable (for Velomitor® Sensor 330500)
Bently Nevada LLC supplies connecting cables with ring lugs or military-type
circular connectors. The cable connector must be compatible with the Velomitor®
Sensor connector.
Route the connecting cable away from the moving components of the machine
and avoid sharp corners during installation. To minimize noise, avoid routing
cables in the same cable tray with high voltage power lines. Tie the cable to a
stationary part of the machine to prevent it from whipping and premature failure.
Prevent the cable from bending sharply, twisting, kinking, knotting, or straining. To
prevent physical damage route the cable through conduit. Before pulling cable
through conduit, wrap the connector or terminals with tape or a similar covering
to protect them from damage. Ensure that the cable does not rub against rough
or sharp surfaces.
2.3.2 Routing Cable (for Velomitor® Sensor 330525)
Bently Nevada LLC supplies connecting cables with military-type circular
connectors. The cable connector must be compatible with the 330525
Velomitor® Sensor connector. The 106765-AA cable assembly includes a quick
connect/disconnect connector and clamps to secure and seal the splash-
resistant boot.
The cable assembly comes with the top clamp secured in position and the bottom
clamp looped around the boot. Use a small screwdriver to open the clamps by
prying the teeth of the clamps apart. Slide the boot back to reveal the connector.
This will allow the cable assembly to easily install on the transducer. Once the
connector is engaged, slide the boot down over the connector assembly and top
of the transducer. The groove on the inside bottom of the boot should fit neatly
over the lip above the hex flats. The grooves on the outside of the boot at the top
and bottom indicate the placement of the clamps. Secure the clamps with pliers.
2.3.3 Routing Cable (for Velomitor® Sensor 330530)
Bently Nevada LLC supplies connecting cables with ring lugs or military-type
circular connectors. The cable connector must be compatible with the Velomitor®
Sensor connector.
Route the connecting cable away from the moving components of the machine
and avoid sharp corners during installation. To minimize noise, avoid routing
cables in the same cable tray with high voltage power lines. Tie the cable to a
stationary part of the machine to prevent it from whipping and premature failure.
Prevent the cable from bending sharply, twisting, kinking, knotting, or straining. To
