BENTLY 136188-02

Product introduction

The BENTLY NEVADA 136188-02 is a high-performance sensor cable assembly, specifically designed to connect industrial vibration sensors and monitoring equipment in extreme temperature environments. As a critical link in machinery health monitoring systems, it ensures unimpeded signal transmission between field sensors like the 330703-000-060-10-02-00 and control units, even in harsh industrial conditions.

In industrial settings where machinery operates at high temperatures, such as near furnaces or turbine enclosures, standard cables often fail due to heat degradation. The 136188-02 addresses this challenge with its silicone rubber jacket and high-temperature conductors, maintaining signal integrity in environments up to 200°C. It acts as a reliable bridge, transmitting the 4-20 mA signals from velocity sensors or the high-frequency signals from eddy current probes without loss or distortion. This ensures that critical vibration data reaches monitoring systems accurately, enabling timely detection of machinery issues and preventing costly failures.

Core advantages and technical highlights

Extreme temperature resistance: The 136188-02 stands out with its ability to operate in a wide temperature range from -55°C to +200°C. Its silicone rubber jacket remains flexible even at high temperatures, avoiding the brittleness that plagues standard cables. In a steel mill application near hot rolling equipment, where ambient temperatures often reach 180°C, the cable maintained stable performance for over 5 years, outlasting conventional cables that needed replacement every 6 months.

Superior shielding: The triple-layer shielding of the 136188-02 provides exceptional protection against electromagnetic interference (EMI) and radio frequency interference (RFI). This is crucial in environments with heavy electrical activity, such as around motors or high-voltage transformers. Tests show that it reduces signal noise by 60% compared to dual-shield cables, ensuring the accuracy of vibration data from sensors like the 330703-000-060-10-02-00.

Chemical and oil resistance: The silicone rubber jacket is highly resistant to industrial oils, lubricants, and harsh chemicals. In a chemical processing plant, where the cable was exposed to occasional spills of corrosive agents, it showed no signs of degradation after 3 years of use, maintaining both structural integrity and signal transmission capabilities.

Typical application scenarios

In gas turbine power plants, the BENTLY NEVADA 136188-02 is used to connect 330703-000-060-10-02-00 velocity sensors to monitoring systems. These sensors are mounted on turbine bearing housings, which operate at high temperatures due to the turbine’s heat output. The cable’s ability to withstand up to 200°C ensures that vibration data from the sensors is transmitted accurately to the control room. This allows operators to monitor bearing health in real-time, and in one instance, the early detection of increased vibration via this cable prevented a turbine shutdown that could have cost over $100,000 in lost production.

In aerospace manufacturing facilities, the cable is employed in test cells where jet engine components are subjected to extreme temperature testing. It connects vibration sensors monitoring the components to data acquisition systems, ensuring that even under simulated engine heat, the vibration data remains reliable. The 136188-02’s flexibility and high-temperature resistance make it ideal for routing through the complex machinery of the test cells, providing consistent performance throughout the testing process.

Installation, commissioning and maintenance instructions

Installation preparation: Before installing the BENTLY NEVADA 136188-02, ensure the installation path is free of sharp edges and moving parts that could damage the cable. Use stainless steel clips to secure the cable, spacing them every 25cm, and avoid bending the cable beyond a 5cm radius to prevent internal conductor damage. Check that the microdot and M12 connectors are clean and free of debris; clean with isopropyl alcohol if necessary. When connecting to 330703-000-060-10-02-00 sensors or other devices, hand-tighten the connectors until snug, then give a ¼-turn with a wrench for a secure fit—do not over-tighten.

Maintenance suggestions: Inspect the 136188-02 monthly for signs of jacket damage, such as cracks or melting, especially in high-temperature areas. Check connectors for corrosion or looseness quarterly. Test the cable’s continuity and insulation resistance annually using a megohmmeter—insulation resistance should be at least 1000 MΩ at 500V. If the cable is exposed to chemical spills, wipe it clean immediately with a cloth dampened in water (avoid harsh solvents). Replace the cable if shielding is damaged, conductors are exposed, or insulation resistance falls below the specified minimum. Store spare cables in a dry, temperature-controlled environment away from direct sunlight.
