Withstand Harsh Plant Conditions to Assess Bearing Health
Steel slabs are heated in furnaces to 1,200 degrees Celsius before being squeezed into steel plates. Operators can lose production and incur repair costs during unexpected work stoppages due to overheated bearings on backup rolls that are part of the process. Hard wired monitors are impractical for use in these applications due to the extreme heat, water, oil and grease. A self-organizing, robust wireless network with Rosemount™ 648 Wireless Temperature Transmitters can withstand these hot and dirty conditions while delivering accurate temperature data used to easily assess bearing health and prevent shutdowns.
