Miniature Bearing (MBS) Sensor-1

Miniature Bearing Sensor Product Code: Application Notes: MBS Temperature is a critical indication of the status of bearings on large rotating plant. Early indication of a rise in temperature allows the plant engineer to instigate a planned maintenance schedule and so prevent production upset’s and expensive replacements. The miniature bearing sensor is designed to permit it’s installation as close to the bearing surface as possible, without disturbance to the bearing or other equipment.
