Online particle detector from Parker is a cost-effective maintenance solution

Parker's icountPD online particle detector, available from Wainbee

Among the many state-of-the-art industrial instruments that Wainbee Limited distributes in Canada is a selection of products designed for predictive maintenance. Since equipment failure can result in a lot of needless lost production time and costs, preventing such failures is a necessary goal for many manufacturing facilities. One notable innovation in this area, available from Wainbee, is the icountPD online particle detector from Parker. This permanently mounted laser detection particle counter is a cost-effective solution for monitoring equipment conditions.

Top technology in particle detection

What makes the icountPD detector stand out is its capability of displaying and communicating data in ISO4406/NAS1638 and Relative Humidity. It employs the most up-to-the-minute laser technology in solid-particle detection. Recommended applications for the icountPD include: mobile equipment in forestry and agriculture; industrial equipment for production plants, pulp and paper, and refineries; wind turbines and lubrication systems in power generation; and maintenance applications like test rigs and flushing stands.

Other traits that distinguish the icountPD are its compact design, its attention to detail, and its cost-effectiveness in prolonging fluid life and minimizing equipment downtime. Parker manufactures three versions of this particle detector: the standard design, built for test stands, filter carts, flushing skids, and similar uses; the icountPDR, for mobile equipment and use in non-hazardous outdoor conditions; and the icountPDZ, designed for offshore platforms and other potentially dangerous applications.

Other significant features of the icountPD:

• Independent monitoring of trends in system contamination
• Early warning digital or LED display indicators for various levels of contamination
• Visual indicators with power and alarm output warnings
• Self-diagnostic software
• Hydraulic, phosphate ester and fuel fluid compatible construction
• Fully integrated PC/PLC technology, including RS232 and 0-5 Volt, 4-20mA, and CANBUS J1939
• Optional moisture percentage RH LED indicator

Users can rely on the icountPD for continuous performance and reliable analysis. It is the ideal choice for any company that needs a dependable and cost-effective online solid particle detector.
