Generator RTD reading difficulties
Generator RTD reading difficulties
(OP)
I am having a strange noise(?) problem with measuring some 3-wire 10-ohm copper RTDs installed in a generator. When the generator is not running, the rtds read fine, but when the generator is running, the stator winding rtds read noisily, but the bearing rtds read fine. I am using shielded wire from the rtd terminal box to my datalogger. The stator RTDs flucuate +/- 10-20 deg C from reading to reading. I have switched cards in the data logger, grounded one leg of the RTD, moved the ground on the shield wire, all with no effect. I have discussed this with the datalogger manufacturer and they have no solution for me. Has anyone encountered this problem before?
