Winding RTDs and Stator RTDs
Embedded RTD temperature sensors for motors and generators
Winding RTDs and stator RTDs are temperature sensors used inside motors, generators, and large electrical machines to monitor heat where machine protection matters.
Thermometrics does not typically manufacture conventional flat or strip-style winding and stator RTDs. We maintain this guide to help engineers and maintenance teams understand the terminology, specifications, and related sensor choices. For products we routinely manufacture, view our RTD sensor assemblies.
Details a specialist supplier will need
How buyers describe these sensors
| Name used | Typical application | What usually matters |
|---|---|---|
| Winding RTD | Motor winding or generator winding temperature monitoring | Embedded fit, insulation system, lead exit, and repeatable machine protection signal. |
| Stator RTD | Generator stator or motor stator monitoring | Sensor geometry, element resistance, documentation, and long-term stability. |
| Embedded RTD | OEM machines and electrical equipment | Drawing match, insulation compatibility, and repeatable replacement part control. |
| Motor temperature sensor | Industrial machinery protection | Correct fit, lead routing, controller compatibility, and delivery speed. |
Machine protection context
Large motors and generators use embedded temperature sensors to support alarms, shutdowns, trend monitoring, and maintenance decisions. Pt100 RTDs are common where stability and repeatability are important.
OEM and replacement context
For OEMs and maintenance teams, the drawing, insulation, lead exit, connector, and replacement fit may matter as much as the element type.
