Oil condition monitoring sensors
Our Ex certified oil condition monitoring sensors continuously and automatically monitor contamination, water content, and oil quality.
The CMS-Ex can automatically measure and save particulate contamination, moisture, and temperature levels in various hydraulic fluids. They are designed specifically to be mounted directly to systems, where ongoing measurement or analysis is required, in high-risk or explosive environments.
Features
– 8-channel contamination measurement and display
– Measurement of the following international standard formats; ISO 4406:1999, NAS 1638, AS 4059E, and ISO 11218
– Moisture and temperature sensing
– Data logging via data interface to Condmaster Ruby and integral memory
– PLC control across various communication protocols
– Alarm outputs
– Certified Zone II Cat. 3 G rating
