WDB7 Series Surface Temperature Sensor

Replaced with ADB Lug Series 

         
 

The WDB7 series is a lug style NTC thermistor or platinum RTD (PT100) type for continuous temperature monitoring.  It is designed to bolt directly onto a bearing housing, motor, gearbox, machine casing or any other application where surface temperature monitoring is needed.

 

The mounting hole is 5/16” from the factory, but can be drilled up to 1/2” if needed.  The sensor can be connected to a PLC or to a hazard monitoring system, such as 4B’s T500 Hotbus Elite, Watchdog Elite, or T400 Elite.

 

The connections are not polarity sensitive therefore special connections requirements are eliminated.
