Wear Debris

Condition monitoring of gearbox and compressor lubricants is an established method of predicting and avoiding impending machinery breakdown. Using Wear Debris Monitoring, worn parts can be identified early and replaced before any serious damage occurs.

In this way, production can be maintained, machinery life extended and the return on capital investment increased.

Analex Ferrous Debris Monitors are constructed using sophisticated dual-coil magnetometers for greater measurement accuracy and sensitivity.

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 amplifid, filtered and displayed as a PQ Index, which relates directly to the mass of the ferromagnetic debris in the sample.

ANALEXpqF Ferrous Debris Monitor FG-K16000-KW

The ANALEXpqF is a manually operated Ferrous Debris Monitor. The PQF is designed to detect ferrous wear debris in the oil or grease samples taken from lubricated machinery. Designed for use in the field, this unit is ideal for testing and analysing oil samples on-site or in remote locations where full laboratory analysis is not possible.

Samples may be presented for analysis in a variety of media. Automatic recalibration is performed between each sample measurement. Data from each test is stored in the internal memory, which may then be transferred to a database on a host PC via an RS232 interface.


Features

Supplied ready for use in a protective, portable carrying case, suitable for testing on-site in remote locations.


All data stored is stored in the internal memory for later analysis and download.


Automatic recalibration between measurements for highly accurate results.
