Resistive Temperature Detectors (RTDs)
Resistance temperature detectors for generator bearings are optional on all Caterpillar Generators. These detectors are 100 ohm resistance temperature detectors. A resistance temperature detector may be monitored by the optional monitor for the EMCP. A resistance temperature detector may be monitored by equipment that is provided by the customer. Consult with your Caterpillar dealer about other methods of measuring the bearing temperature.The EMCP may be configured to "ALARM" or the EMCP may be configured to "SHUTDOWN". An alarm is activated if the temperature of the bearing reaches 85 °C (185 °F). A shutdown occurs if the temperature of the bearing reaches 95 °C (203 °F).Infrared Thermometers
Bearing temperatures can also be recorded with the use of an infrared thermometer. Refer to Special Publication, NENG2500, "Caterpillar Dealer Service Tools Catalog" for a variety of infrared thermometers. Follow the instructions that come with your infrared thermometer.
