EESIFLO manufactures the EASZ-1 water in oil transmitters with highly stable circuits . Solve the problems of drift that are inherent with poorly designed electronic circuits measuring dielectric . Able to detect minute changes in dielectric and requires very low power to operate.

Extending oil service life does not need to be guesswork. Whilst lubricants perform better these days, you know they are still at risk from changing operating and environmental conditions. That’s why your oil analysis service includes an oil condition feedback. It helps you detect when your oil may no longer be fit for service, possibly even pinpointing a contaminant or machine, process fault as the cause. Moisture or water can be a deadly contaminant. Our experience tells us that in many cases it goes unnoticed. Online water detection systems by EESIFLO use state of the art circuit design and advanced algorithms relative to maintaining stability and resolution relative to the measurement of the oil dielectric . Each PCB is electronically factory calibrated within tolerances and each sensor set is calibrated as a whole before shipment.

How frequently are you sampling for water contamination? What if a problem arises between scheduled samples? Wouldn’t it make sense to be monitoring more frequently? The EASZ-1 was designed with this problem in mind . EESIFLO’s sensors are loop powered and report water contamination continuously with a response time of 1 second and a resolution of 100ppm . The final product is a conclusion of a development began in the early 90’s

Water contamination in oil has always been a problem for many people. The ability of an instrument to accurately measure in lower range ppm values and higher percentages has been sought after for some time. The problems that have faced previous attempts of capacitance devices stemmed from electronic drift and poor design. Extensive research and development has produced a loop powered mini PCB card that works with cylindrical tubes that act as capacitor plates to measure immediate changes in water content or over time. Since oil has a low dielectric and water the opposite, it is possible to detect any changes whether ppm or percentage using this well known principle.

The technology is not limited to a particular type of oil and can measure water contamination in any oil, whether mineral or synthetic based- low or high viscosity. It also applies to fuels , vegetable oils, hydraulic systems or hydrocarbon based liquids.

The EASZ-1 Sensor goes beyond the normal handheld field go/no-go units to offer permanent mounting. Providing both a check on water ingress and change of dielectric in real-time. Immediate action on the first indication of change before any harm is done to the machine or even the oil can be taken before it is too late. Knowing when to change the oil based on condition, not on historical schedules is a major advantage .

Standard 1 inch EASZ-1 in Stainless Steel 316L

With its digital and analogue outputs, it can be easily integrated into your existing Condition Monitoring and operating control systems. Whether it’s to check on the health of the lubricant, or an alert of changing contaminant ingression, the EASZ-1 Oil Condition Sensor provides instant information, complementing your existing laboratory oil analysis programme, and helping you make informed maintenance planning decisions.
