Platinum thermal resistance WZPM2-08-120-M18-S is a commonly used temperature sensor, also known as clamp-type thermal resistance or card-type thermal resistance. Its structure consists of thermal resistance elements and ferrules. When used to measure the temperature of turbine bearings (bearings), its installation method usually involves the following key steps and key points:

1. Positioning and design: First, determine the temperature measurement points of the bearings (bearings) according to the design and maintenance manual of the turbine. These points are usually on or near the surface of the bearings, because this is the most sensitive and critical area for monitoring bearing temperature changes.

2. Choose the installation method: Platinum thermal resistances are usually installed in end-face or insertion styles. End-face thermal resistances (such as the end-face thermal resistances in the WZPM2-08 series) directly contact or fit closely to the bearing surface to measure its temperature. The insertion type is inserted into the measured medium through a probe, but in this scenario, the end-face type is more common.

3. Installation preparation: Before installation, ensure that the bearing surface is clean, flat, and free of impurities to ensure that the thermal resistance can closely contact and accurately transmit the temperature. Sometimes it is necessary to use special cleaning agents and grinding tools to prepare the surface.

4. Fixed installation: Use appropriate fixings to fix the RTD to the bearing. This may include the use of ferrules, spring washers, fasteners or bolted joints, etc., depending on the design of the RTD and the specific requirements of the turbine. Ensure that the installation is firm, but not too stressful on the bearing to avoid affecting its normal operation.

5. Wiring: Lead the wires of the platinum RTD through a protective tube or cable into a safe path and connect them to an external temperature transmitter or monitoring system. Using shielded cables can reduce electromagnetic interference and ensure accurate signal transmission.

6. Testing and calibration: After installation, the RTD needs to be initially tested and calibrated to ensure that the measurement is accurate. This may involve using a standard temperature source or comparing with a known temperature point.

7. Maintenance and inspection: Regularly check the condition of the RTD and the mounting point to ensure that there is no looseness or damage, and that the contact between the RTD and the bearing is still good.

Through such a meticulous installation process, the platinum thermal resistance ZPM2-08 can accurately and reliably monitor the temperature changes of the turbine bearings, provide key data for preventing overheating, monitoring bearing wear or failure, and ensure the safe operation of the equipment.
