Bently Nevada 3300 Vibration Monitor & TDXnet
Bently Nevada 3300 Vibration Monitor & TDXnet
(OP)
Not strictly a 'motors' post but probably close enough in here.
We have a fairly large system (4 racks) of Bently Nevada 3300 gear monitoring our steam turbine generators. The racks connect to the TDXnet data processor using a couple of cables, a 25 pin D on the 'Dynamic' port and a 15 pin D on the 'Static' port. I am looking for a bit of information on the cable construction: I can bell it out pin for pin, but are there any paired cores twisted together and what are the shielding arrangements? I am looking to make up extended cables to accommodate some modification work at site, and the eternally unhelpful B/N list it as 'engineered proprietary' and give no detail in the documentation I have. It's a cable FFS, what the hell is so secret about it? Furthermore their infernal website requires you to have a service agreement just to access the documentation for the products you have bought, which is a disgrace that I hoped GE might have put an end to but alas...
I'm reluctant to chop a cable in half to investigate its makeup, so if anyone has that info handy I would be very grateful.

When typing your message click on the Process TGML link and you will find all sorts of wonderful stuff. The ° is achieved by typing [°]. The [ignore] tag and its end tag [/ignore] are quite useful for showing what to type.
