What is bearing temperature generator?

Generator bearings (DE/NDE) should remain below 90 °C — higher temperatures indicate inadequate lubrication or misalignment and herald bearing damage early.

What the AI reads from these values

What the AI reads
  • Temperature comparison with the reference value (approx. 31 °C) to identify trends
  • Detection of lubrication defects through exponential temperature increase
  • Early warning of misalignment due to uneven load distribution
  • Monitoring of limit value exceedance (90 °C) to avoid emergency shutdowns
Scenario

Monitored: continuous

The scenario: a drifting excitation shifts the cos φ without triggering a limit value, reactive power costs, or grid issues. The AI: detects the shift in proportion early and reports it before the protection reacts. It identifies the trend before the limit value is reached.

Why this matters

Early detection of bearing damage reduces the probability of failure and protects the mechanical integrity of the generator. Monitoring enables condition-based maintenance of the lubricant supply. This prevents costly repairs to the bearing housings caused by thermal overload.
