- Available with low temp and high temp lead wire and connectors.
- Adjustable bayonet Lock Mechanism provides a secure, spring-loaded connection for better contact with the bearing surface and allows for quick installation and removal without special tools.
Application Note
Copper Tip thermocouples are essential for bearing temperature monitoring in various critical equipment, including rotors, generators, turbines, and transformers, to ensure efficient power generation and prevent overheating. They are also widely used in other rotating machinery such as pumps, dynamos, compressors, and drilling equipment, helping detect temperature variations that may signal potential failures. Additionally, these temperature sensors are employed in diverse applications like aircraft engines and auxiliary power units, diesel engines, turbochargers, gearboxes, conveyor systems, and locomotive bearings, providing real-time monitoring to enhance performance, prevent damage, and ensure reliable operation across these high-stakes systems.
