Oil Quality Sensor

The RMF Systems Oil Quality Sensor

RMF Systems manufactures filtration solutions that are available in Canada through Wainbee Filtration. This includes high-viscosity filtration products, such as the unique Oil Quality Sensor, or OQS. This device is a live, highly flexible, and cost-efficient condition-based monitoring solution built for permanent mounting within any lubrication system on any type of machine.

The OQS puts users in control with real-time monitoring of oxidation and water ingress, and expensive oil changes are now dependent on oil condition rather than historical schedule.

Maximizing oil service life

A low-cost investment tool, the RMF Oil Quality Sensor is more than 60 times more sensitive to oil contamination than any other dielectric constant measuring sensor is. It reliably measures the energy-loss component of oil permittivity, as well as contamination in all kinds of industrial equipment – such as diesel and petrol engines, compressors, industrial gear reducers, wind turbines, generator sets, and hydraulic systems. Measured values are increased by all contaminants, like metallic particles, soot, water, oxidation, glycol, and particularly burnt fuel dilution.

Among the benefits that businesses get from this Oil Quality Sensor from Wainbee:

  • lower maintenance costs;
  • extended intervals between oil changes;
  • scheduled downtime intervals for higher productivity;
  • lower waste-oil cost;
  • better equipment reliability;
  • lower carbon footprint; and
  • lower total cost of ownership.

Today, it is essential to implement an effective monitoring and maintenance program for lubricants in critical plant machinery. As the price of crude oil continues to escalate and the quality of lubricants continues to improve significantly, organizations need to maximize the service life of the oil that they are using. Monitoring oil condition is fundamental to understanding the optimal change time; if change comes too early or late, the costs can be needlessly high. The RMF OQS is the ideal solution for this.

With the OQS, users get increased peace of mind, knowing that their facilities are being monitored 24 hours a day, seven days a week. By detecting and reporting early signs of hidden issues, this device enables remedial action to stop accelerated wear and unexpected breakdowns. Equipment is always in optimal condition.
