MCS Metallic Contamination Sensor Series
The Metallic Contamination Sensor MCS 1000 detects metallic solid particle contamination in lubrication fluid. The particles are determined according to the inductive measurement process, in which a coil system is the key element of the sensor. Metallic particles (ferromagnetic Fe and nonferromagnetic nFe) in the > 70 μm size range are detected. The MCS 1000 continuously monitors the status of the system and gives information on imminent gear unit damage. This makes the sensor a reliable instrument for status-oriented maintenance.
- Early detection of imminent gear unit damage
- Prevention of expensive plant downtime
- Optimal supplement to optical sensors
- Measurement of metallic particles (ferromagnetic and nonferromagnetic) > 70 µm
