Particle detector 4212-PK series

for oil

WearDetect Oil Debris Sensor comprises two key elements. The sensor probe, that comes with multiple thread adaptor options, is coupled with the gearbox in place of the standard magnetic drain plug. The probe is then connected by wire to the separate electronics module, which turns the sensor signals into useful data. This data is then relayed via analogue or digital communications protocols for display or post-processing. WearDetect Oil Debris Sensor offers 4 types of measurement outputs and with no specialist knowledge required to analyse the outputs, the sensor offers a low cost of ownership. It allows the end user to identify and thereby eliminate an unplanned breakdown; the oil debris sensor gives a quick and positive return-on-investment. The Oil Debris Sensor has been developed to assist the plant or automotive engineer to improve the reliability of their equipment. By continuously monitoring the most common causes of gearbox and transmission failure, the sensor provides early indications of a potential problem allowing for planned investigation and remedial action to be implemented before catastrophic failure occurs. Powerful magnets attract and retain ferrous particles in the fluid. Identification is either fine wear particles signalling fluid cleanliness or increased wear rates, or coarse failure pieces giving early indication of possible component failure. Additionally, the sensor will provide an alarm condition of water contamination in oil, which can lead to subsequent part failure and an oil presence alarm, signalling either low oil levels or leakage.
