I posted this in another forum but maybe you guys can help- I 've been asked to find a way to monitor temperatures on brake linings- I see there's been work done on tractor/trailer brake/wheel systems but are there commercial systems out there ?- my application is somewhat different- the system is parallel posts, and the linings are 18" wide x 1" thick x 8' long ( its for a mine winder- thought I might be able to adapt something) - problem originated when a small piece of lining broke off, became wedged between lining & brake path & started a small fire- we run the winder remotely & would take 20 mins to get to the winder - we are installing fire suppression but also need temp detection
Thanks
