Thermometrics manufactures a range of high accuracy, miniature bearing sensors designed specifically for use in bearing applications to give a reliable indication of bearing wear and oil film breakdown through continuous monitoring of bearing temperature.
The bearing sensors, which are available in both Thermocouple and RTD versions, are designed to fit beneath the Babbitt layer of the bearing shoe and are supplied in either a standard configuration or a optional spring loaded configuration.
Bearing thermocouples and RTD sensors have an operating temperature range of -25 to +250�C.
Standard bearing sensor assemblies are easy to install in drilled holes for general temperature sensing applications whereas the spring loaded �top hat� style assemblies are inserted into a milled hole with a retaining clip pushed down to compress the spring and retain the sensor against the surface being monitored.
