| Typical installation in lubrication system.
Water in hydraulic fluid can be detrimental by
the fact that it corrodes surfaces, increases the
chances of air build up as well as degrading factor
in the hydraulic oil’s lubricating abilities.
A good practice may be to use vacuum distillation,
headspace dehumidifiers and of course filters but
if damage is possible due to small or larger amounts
of dissolved, free or emulsified oil, a better practice
would be to monitor the condition of the hydraulic
oil online with the EASZ-1 water in hydraulic oil
sensor.
Online monitoring of oil enables operators to
know when a change of oil is required or when something
is amiss in the hydraulic system. There are a myriad
of designs of water removal systems from oil and
each person may not be in total agreement as to
the effectiveness of one system over another. Since
the EASZ-1 is continually monitoring the water in
the hydraulic oil, the effectiveness of the water
removal system can be monitored or simply the operator
will have a better idea of when a filter change
is necessary.

oil monitor, please contact your local EESIFLO representative
office. The details can be found on http://www.eesiflo.com |
