Oil Condition Monitoring Equipment

Continuous oil condition monitoring of machinery and lubricant testing is fast becoming the established method of predicting and avoiding impending machinery breakdown. The ANALEX range of equipment covers both online sensors for real time wear metal debris and oil condition detection and monitoring, and a range of offline instruments designed for engineers and laboratory analysts with the ability to screen oil samples for particle measurement of ferrous wear debris.


On-line Oil Condition Sensors

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.

Oil Condition Sensors include:








Ferrous Debris Monitors

Analex Ferrous Debris Monitors are constructed using sophisticated dual-coil magnetometers for greater particle measurement accuracy and sensitivity for lubricating oils, hydraulic oils and greases. When no sample is present, the sample coil (sensor) and the reference coil are in balance. Both coils are designed to maintain this balance in conjunction with changes in the ambient temperature.

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.

3 types of Ferrous Debris Monitor are available:

ANALEXpqA Automatic Ferrous Debris Monitor for laboratory use & batch sampling.


ANALEXpqM Manual Ferrous Debris Monitor for suitable for laboratory testing of smaller numbers of samples.


ANALEXpqF Portable Ferrous Debris Monitor for use in the field.


ANALEXfdM Ferrous Debris Monitor for measuring the contamination of an oil sample with wear metal particles
