Oil Condition Monitoring - Iron & Steel
The production of steel and other sheet and rolled metals relies upon heavy plant and equipment operating under extreme conditions - lubricants working under these circumstances require constant monitoring and management.
Additionally, the steel industry needs to control entrainment of metal particles on the surfaces of finshed product. Kittiwake ANALEX instrumentation is used for:
Establishing effective continuous monitoring of metal particle levels and sizes in stainless steel quench oil can improve production quality and reduce waste, resulting in higher profits.
ANALEXrs On-line Machinery Oil Condition Sensors
Kittiwakes ANALEXrs on-line sensor range enables engineers to quality control their production output and avoid lost revenue from the mills.
ANALEXpq Off-line Oil Condition Monitoring
The ANALEX range of Ferrous Debris Monitors are suitable for use both in the field and in laboratory conditions. A sample of oil containing ferromagnetic particles is placed upon the sensor, thus altering the balance between the coils. The resulting 'out-of-balance' signal is amplified, filtered and displayed as a PQ Index, which relates directly to the mass of the ferromagnetic debris in the sample.
