SKF TKDT 10 enables fast temperature measurement

September 2014 Temperature Measurement

SKF has launched a new condition monitoring thermometer that meets the need across industry for a compact, high quality, accurate instrument for measuring temperature by direct contact. The device offers a wide measurement range from -200 to +1372°C, making it a powerful tool with which to increase plant efficiency. The TKDT 10 is especially designed for maintenance tasks on bearings, gearboxes and other critical machine components where the accurate measurement of temperatures allows the early identification of problems and their root causes.

The device is suitable for a wide range of applications and has the facility to allow two SKF temperature probes to be connected. It also offers a number of features that enhance ease of use. For example, it can display two measurements simultaneously, show their temperature difference and display minimum, maximum or average values to further support the measurement task.

The SKF TKDT 10 comes equipped with the SKF TMDT 2-30 temperature probe and features a large back-lit LCD for enhanced readability. The instrument is supplied in a sturdy carrying case to ensure a long lifespan.
