For monitoring bearing temperatures on passenger rail cars.

The T260625 is used for bearing temperature monitoring on passenger rail cars. The sensor employs an innovative right angle cable exit design that can be oriented anywhere (360°) around the centerline of the sensor body after it is torqued in place. This feature eliminates large service loops in cabling under the car which greatly reduces the incidence of cables being fatigued, snagged or cut by ballast and debris. Products featured in this catalog may be the subject of one or more pending or issued patents and/or patent applications including U.S. Patent numbers 5,006,797; 5,918,292; 6,298,739; 6,543,304; 6,923,082; CA Patent number 2,295,649; and European Publication No. 1000321A.
