The Minco Embedment RTD, part number S102951NA3E120AC1, is designed for monitoring the temperature of thrust bearings in hazardous environments. It is certified for use in Zone 0 and Zone 1, Group IIC areas, ensuring safety in potentially explosive atmospheres. The sensor operates within a temperature range of -50 to 200°C (-58 to 392°F), which is reduced to 125°C (257°F) when an elastomer-filled cable is selected. The sensor features a tin-plated copper alloy case and a factory-applied babbitt tip on specific case styles, which helps mitigate the risk of overheating when installed in a babbitt layer. Lead wire options include stranded copper with PTFE insulation, with additional options for stainless steel braid and elastomer-filled configurations for enhanced durability. The time constant is approximately 3.0 seconds in moving water, and it maintains a minimum insulation resistance of 10 megohms at 100 VDC from leads to case. This product is suitable for applications requiring reliable temperature monitoring in compact and rugged settings.
Minco miniature embedment RTDs feature a variety of mounting methods, including: spring loading or potting in drilled holes and factory applied babbitt metal tip to reduce overheating of the senors when installed in babbitt layer. They also feature standard lead wire options of PTFE lead wire, PTFE lead wire with a stainless steel overbraid for added durability or PTFE lead wires with stainless steel overbraid and a Teflon sleeve filled with elastomer for rugged cable that prevents migration of oil along the cable.
