Illustration shows typical sensor placements, applications may vary.


			(1) Bearing Temperature Sensor The sensor screw directly into a bearing housing through the existing grease zerk thread. Each sensor is fitted with a grease zerk to allow lubrication of the bearing without the need for removal of the sensor. More Info







			(2) Surface Temperature Sensor Bolts directly onto a bearing housing, motor, gearbox, or machine casing for continuous temperature monitoring. More Info







			(3) P800 Inductive Proximity Switch The P800 detects the presence of metallic objects in hazardous areas such as handling, storage, packaging, conveying, and processing. It also can detect the position of doors, slides, gates and containers. More Info







			(4) Speed Switch Sensor The M800 Elite speed switch is a inductive proximity sensor for monitoring shaft underspeed conditions. With two under speed relay contact outputs and a pulse output, the self contained unit provides the user with easy on site installation and consistent reliability. More Info







			(5) Plug / Choke Sensor Detects level or plug situations for bulk granular solids or liquids in tanks, bins, or silos and can be used as a plug or choke detector in chutes, conveyors and elevator legs. More Info


			Watchdog™ Elite Hazard Monitor The Watchdog Elite is a microprocessor controlled unit with combined belt speed, belt alignment, bearing temperature, pulley alignment and plugged condition monitoring for a single bucket elevator or conveyor. More Info







			T500 Elite - Hotbus™ Hazard Monitor The T500 Elite - Hotbus is a serial communications system designed to monitor up to 256 sensors on multiple bucket elevators and conveyors for belt speed, belt alignment, bearing temperature, level and plugged conditions. More Info
