Bearing Temperature Sensors

Overview

Spring-loaded RTD and thermocouple bearing sensors built to fit standard motor and pump bearing housings. Used to monitor bearing temperatures on turbines, generators, large motors, and pumps, and compatible with API 670 protective instrumentation practices.

Key Features

• Spring-loaded probe maintains intimate contact with the bearing surface
• Pt100 RTD or Type K / J thermocouple elements
• Rounded, flat, or custom tip geometry to match bearing pocket
• Brass, stainless, or copper tip for optimum heat transfer
• NEMA 4X aluminum or stainless terminal head for harsh environments
• Common metric and imperial mounting threads stocked
• API 670 compatible for protective monitoring systems

Applications

• Motor and generator bearing monitoring
• Steam and gas turbine journal bearings
• Centrifugal and reciprocating pump bearings
• Gearbox housings and thrust bearings
• Compressor and blower bearings
• Wind turbine main and generator bearings
