The transmitter is intended to monitor the temperature of bearings and other mechanical devices to protect against mechanical destruction and/or fire. These transmitters have been designed to interface with any standard type-K or type-T thermocouple.
Most lubricants break down when they are above 90 degrees Celsius. By continuously monitoring and trending temperature values, the user may detect problems before there is a mechanical collapse.
The user should always check the operating temperature range of their lubricants from their lubricant manufacturer.
