If you are involved in the business of lubrication, the EESIFLO
EASZ-1 water in oil sensor is a product you may want to look
at for online measurement or control of moisture or water
content in oils. The EASZ-1 uses a well known principle of
capacitance in a cell in which water and oil will pass through.
The ratios of the two will affect the picofarad resistance
and these values (related to temperature) can be delivered
in either a ppm or percentage readout of water content in
oil.
The capacitance probe has been widely accepted in the oil
and gas industry in such devices as BS and W monitors for
many years. EESIFLO has taken the same principles and developed
a lower cost water in oil sensor which has temperature compensation
and uses lower amounts of energy.
Whether you are involved with engine lubricants , industrial
oils or hydraulic fluids, the same principal can be used to
cover all measurements by either calibrating to the actual
oil in question or from our own database. The electronic circuits
on the EASZ-1 PCB have been developed using modern techniques
and are less prone to drift and errors due to modern manufacturing
techniques.
LUBRICATING OIL SENSOR
HYDRAULICS, DIESEL, FUEL OIL, SYNTHETIC OILS AND MORE
EESIFLO's EASZ-1 determines the feasibility of extending
the life of hydraulic oils by monitoring them for water content
using an online water-in-oil sensor. Online measurement of
many types of oils including transmission oils by the EESIFLO
EASZ-1 water in hydraulic oil analyzer reduces the need for
a laboratory to analyze the water content of oil samples.
In addition, the EESIFLO water-in-oil analyzer can be tested
onsite or in a laboratory setting for further accuracy and
verification against a Karl Fischer coulometric or volumetric
titrator in determining water content in hydraulic oils
Spot sampling , although sometimes unavoidable can result
in extra costs and the generation of lab-related work over
time. The EASZ-1 is an online instrument that continually
reports the amount of water in oil. Such a device can assist
operators by eliminating the cost and time involved in excessive
spot sampling.
Water in oil has become a serious problem and many studies
have shown that the contamination can have devastating effects
in medium or large systems .When introduced into aircraft
and SE transmission and hydraulic systems, water breaks down
the protective properties of the oils. Water entry can occur
through physical intrusion as well as through condensation
of atmospheric humidity. When aircraft and vessels are operating
over water or at sea, water intrusion more specifically, saltwater
intrusion can occur unnoticed. Paper mills , power plants
and other industries using high performance bearings and mechanical
devices are responsible for monitoring water in oil content
both offline and online since this information assists the
user in knowing what appropriate action to take in the event
of a possible problem.
