Data Loggers Monitor Bearing Temperature to Prevent Failure

The condition of the bearings in your industrial equipment is tied to the condition of your machinery and your process itself. Equipment operating at high temperatures or at low speed is prone to premature bearing or gear failure, which can cause a process shutdown costing many hours of lost production. Now CAS DataLoggers can supply your business with wired and wireless temperature monitoring systems for reliable condition monitoring and alarming of bearings in process-critical equipment including compressor motors, turbines and conveyors.

Use a temperature data logger to monitor the condition of your bearings and help predict failure before it can happen. When temperatures go out of spec, these systems automatically send out text and email alarms warning you of extreme temperatures possibly indicative of imminent bearing failure so your facility has enough notice to take corrective measures and schedule downtime for replacement.

Whether you’re running equipment at slow or high speeds, temperature monitoring is the surest way to detect bearing damage. However, manual methods of inspection can be unreliable and difficult to make time for. Bearings can gradually corrode and deteriorate, developing looseness, faults or skidding without anyone being aware. Especially at low operating speeds, it can be difficult to identify developing problems just by the occasional ‘look and listen.’ This often means that bearing damage is only noticed after it’s already too late, which can cause the equipment to fail and force a critical process shutdown. With this in mind a temperature monitoring system is the most reliable way to help prevent unplanned shutdowns and/or damage to nearby machinery.
