A highly flexible system approach to identify immediate issues
Our thermal product measurement sensor technology uses a highly flexible system approach that can be streamlined to assessment environments.
The sensor is compact and robust, consisting of a platinum thin film or pulse gauge. This can be coated to allow for operation in harsh environments.
Sensors are coupled to signal processing electronics. This records measured data and can indicate conditions directly or via a computer – either hard wired or wirelessly connected.
A variety of system configurations:
- A standard handheld device fitted with a wand
- A desktop device for sample measurement
- Bespoke engineered in-line and in-process systems.
Contamination
Our thermal product sensor systems are equipped to report and analyse immediate issues and trend data to identify problems that arise between scheduled tests. You can spot tell-tale indicators of contamination before they become expensive and costly failures.
In 2020, we made a breakthrough in our ability to measure contaminants in pharmaceutical products with a precision of 50 parts per million.
Lubrication systems
PrOXisense thermal product sensors can be used in any lubrication system:
- In-service jet engine lubrication oil condition and contamination assessment
- Monitoring and assessment of an ongoing chemical reaction process
- Water contamination and accumulation in aviation fuel storage
- Transportation and delivery systems and the assessment of rocks for suitability as raw stock for industrial process
- Bearing Lubrication oil measurement
- Identification of counterfeit or non-compliant materials
Accurate measuring
The thermal product sensor can accurately measure the condition of oil. It can detect minute levels of contamination and debris including:
- Water
- Metallic particulates (both ferrous and non-ferrous)
- Non-metallic particulates (such as ceramics).
- Oil condition and contamination monitoring and analysis
