OILCHECK 500 Contamination with oil can occur at several stages during compressed air processing, posing risks to machinery, the environment, and health. The OIL CHECK 500 by CS INSTRUMENTS continuously monitors compressed air and detects even the smallest residual oil content, ensuring compliance with ISO 8573-5 standards. The device features cutting-edge sensor technology, highly sensitive to vapors of the specified oil standard, while ignoring irrelevant gaseous substances like ethanol (C₂H₆O). No oxygen is required in the test gas. A key innovation is the patented “Forced Pressure Variation” method, which creates compression stages internally to identify creeping contamination, such as from filter saturation. This compensates for signal drift due to aging or pollution without requiring consumables like activated carbon filters – resulting in low-maintenance and long-term stable measurement. The sensor unit is field-replaceable, eliminating the need for device return or recalibration. With its compact design, the OIL CHECK 500 is easy to handle and reduces logistics costs. Internal monitoring of all functions ensures full process reliability. Applications: Continuous monitoring of residual oil in compressed air and other gases – ideal for oil-free compressors, pharmaceutical, food and beverage, cosmetics, semiconductor, and biotech industries.
