This is an online monitoring sensor that uses optical technology to accurately assess the degradation status of lubricant oil, enabling the detection of deterioration and contamination throughout its lifespan. By reducing the frequency of oil changes, it positively impacts both the environment and process sustainability. The probe’s design allows for direct installation into the lubrication system or the lubricant storage sump, without requiring a bypass. Connectivity features ensure that any issues can be addressed in real-time, with easy integration into SCADA, PC, PLC, or even CMS systems.
Water is one of the most hazardous contaminants for the lubrication of critical systems. Not only does its presence indicate potential leaks, but it also accelerates corrosion of essential machine components and contributes to the breakdown of lubrication oil. The OilMoisture sensor is an online optical device that uses infrared technology to accurately detect water content in hydraulic and lubrication systems. By providing early detection, this sensor helps prevent faults caused by water, thereby enhancing the reliability of machinery and processes.
In addition to detecting water, the OilMoisture sensor also assesses the risk of oil degradation, another detrimental factor for the lubrication of critical systems.
A key advantage of this sensor is its versatility during installation. It can be directly integrated into the lubrication system or the oil sump tank, simplifying its incorporation into the machinery.
By significantly extending the useful life of lubrication oil, OilHealth & OilMoisture reduces the number of oil changes, and hence overall operational cost.
OilHealth & OilMoisture comes with full SCADA/PC/PLC integration through digital communications (Modbus RTU). It is also compatible with a CMS.
By ensuring that the oil flow is in optimal condition at all times, the OilHealth and OilMoisture probes provides operatives with greater certainty, increases operability, productivity and machinery uptime.
By reducing the number of oil changes and limiting the waste generated, the OilHealth and OilMoisture probes serves to achieve a highly positive environmental impact.
OilHealth and OilMoisture detects anomalies in the lubricant, both in its initial status and during its useful life, serving to resolve incidents before they arise.
The OilMoisture sensor’s early diagnosis capacity serves to reduce possible faults associated with the presence of water, thereby improving the reliability of the machinery and processes.
