AccuTempTM Rotor Temperature Monitoring System Model AT-7800 provides remote, real-time temperature measurements for a range of rotating equipment, allowing users to make more efficient and safer operating decisions. AccuTemp includes induction-powered temperature sensors on the rotor, and the system operates independent of rotor movement. This means that there are no slip rings or batteries to wear out, and measurements can be taken both while in motion and at stand-still.
Read about how one leading manufacturer of flat rolled aluminum ensured operational efficiency of their rolling mills with AccuTemp.
AccuTemp is easily installed on existing rotor shafts and provides 8 channels or more of temperature measurements from a variety of RTD and thermocouple sensor types and wirelessly transmits measurement values to a stationary receiver. The data can be read via Modbus TCP over 10/100 ethernet or Modbus RTU over a USB virtual serial port.
The AccuTemp receiver unit includes a built-in LCD used for viewing temperature readings, evaluating system health, and configuring system operation. The system can also diagnose common sensor issues such as open or shorted wires or wrongly wired sensors.
Alternative temperature sensors and output data formats can be accommodated upon request.
