Industrial Machinery Temperature Sensors

Industrial machinery applications usually require sensors that fit existing hardware, survive vibration, and route cleanly through tight mechanical spaces. Thermometrics supports motors, pumps, gearboxes, bearings, extruders, compressors, and packaged equipment with durable RTD and thermocouple assemblies.

Bearing and machine-health sensing on motors, pumps, and gearboxes

Bearing thermocouples and RTDs are fitted to motors, pumps, gearboxes, and generator housings to track localized temperature rise, protect rotating assets, and support machine-health programs before bearing damage becomes a shutdown event.

Common Applications

  • Bearing housings, motors, pumps, and generators
  • Gearboxes, hydraulic power units, and lubrication systems
  • Skid-mounted equipment and OEM machinery packages
  • Factory test stands, endurance rigs, and maintenance replacement programs

Sensor Solutions

  • Bearing RTDs and bearing thermocouples with case-style and lead-exit options
  • Spring-contact builds for consistent thermal coupling at the measurement point
  • Abrasion-resistant leads, armor, and protected exits for machine environments
  • Compact probe and fitting combinations for retrofit and OEM fit-up requirements

Quality & Compliance

Machinery programs often focus on repeatable fit, replacement compatibility, documentation by part or lot, and calibration or inspection support where critical assets or qualification testing are involved.

Bearing Fit

Case-style, spring-contact, and lead-exit options for rotating assets.

Rugged Lead Protection

Abrasion and routing support for packaged machinery and OEM builds.

Replacement Accuracy

Repeatable geometry for installed hardware and recurring service programs.

Program Considerations

  • Industrial machinery programs often revolve around exact fit, durable routing, and compatibility with installed hardware.
  • Bearing sensors and compact RTD/TC builds are commonly used where access is tight and vibration is constant.
  • OEM and maintenance programs may need the same electrical function in multiple mechanical formats.
