EMB-RTD ; Embedment style resistance temperature detector specifically designed for bearing temperature or other rotating shafts temperature. Probe tip is inserted directly into drilled holes (such as bearing housing,machine components) or the process. With small button type design these rtds can be installed at norrow and small spaces. TempoTech Embedment RTDs comes in three tip styles A, B, C and D to use in all types of application. Typically embedment rtds are installed close to the Babbitt layer of the bearing shoe for accurate bearing temperature measurement.

Application Note
EMB Embedment RTD is 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.
