In many machines and systems, oil plays an essential role in reducing friction and protecting components from overheating. Over time, however, its performance declines due to factors such as oxidation, dilution, and additive degradation.
Traditionally, many plant managers rely on scheduled oil changes at fixed intervals. This method, based solely on time, is inefficient: it leads to higher costs, wasted resources, and can increase the risk of equipment damage.
A more advanced solution is laboratory oil analysis, which allows for a more precise determination of when to perform a replacement. However, collecting and shipping samples involves long wait times, additional costs, and a lack of immediate data.
For this reason, we bring the laboratory directly onto the machine, ensuring instant and accurate monitoring. This approach reduces waste, lowers costs, and minimizes environmental impact, considering that every oil change is costly and polluting, and that oil itself is a precious and limited natural resource.
With the FluidiX Lub-6 sensor, you can count on 5 distinctive features:
NDIR (Non-Dispersive Infrared) Technology: utilizes FTIR spectroscopy to perform accurate real-time analysis of oil condition, with results comparable to those of a laboratory.
Key Parameter Detection: capable of monitoring up to six indicators, including water content, oxidation, nitration, sulfation, soot, and anti-wear additives.
Continuous monitoring: provides constant data 24/7, allowing for optimized oil usage and the prevention of potential failures.
Simple integration: easily connects to new or existing systems via Ethernet and Modbus TCP protocol.
Durable construction: featuring an aluminum housing, it is designed to operate in harsh conditions, with temperatures up to 90°C and pressures up to 30 bar (optional).
Oil is a precious resource: let’s protect it!
