S3238
Overview
These models average temperatures along their length to eliminate point measurement
errors. Wrap them around cylinders or adhere them to flat surfaces.
Specifications
Model S3238
Model S3238 is specially designed to sense stator temperatures
in motors and generators. An alternative to the “stick” sensors,
the S3238 mounts on the end turns of stator windings and pro-
vides an easy way to add overtemperature protection when
the stator is not being rewound.
