The requirement for on-line machinery and oil condition monitoring is becoming evermore apparent as maintenance costs increase and production capacity and equipment performance is maximised.
While temperature, pressure and vibration sensors all have their part to play in a condition monitoring package, early detection of changes in oil and lubricant condition and regular, consistent monitoring of wear metal debris in rotating plant provide greater insight into the actual condition of vital machinery and equipment.
Kittiwake have developed a range of innovative and practical on-line sensors for wear metal debris and oil condition detection and monitoring.
The ANALEXrs range is designed to provide plant engineers and maintenance managers with real time, continuously monitored testing and analysis data for critical plant and equipment.
Suitable for use with slow, medium and high speed diesel engines, gas turbines, gearboxes, compressors, generators, vehicles and other oil filled plant, these sensors help to increase productivity, reduce costs and improve profitability.
3 types of online sensor are available, as specified below (see individual pages for more detailed specifications). Note: Kittiwake operates a continuous development program and thus certain specifications may be subject to change.
Total Ferrous Debris Sensor
Particle Content Sensor
