Moisture Content Sensor - MCS
Water in hydraulic and lubrication fluids is one of the main causes for oxidation, additive depletion, loss of dielectric strength in insulating oils, corrosion and reduced lubricating film thickness. These expensive problems can be prevented by monitoring the water level of your fluid and taking actions at an early stage.
The moisture content sensor (MCS) is suitable for most hydraulic and lubricating fluids. The high accuracy of the measurement and excellent long-term stability make the MCS ideal for online monitoring of moisture in transformer, lubricating and hydraulic fluid, as well as diesel fuel. The MCS is perfectly suitable for long term usage in moisture levels, higher than 90% RH. Making it the perfect solution for gearboxes, thrusters and other applications where free water is a threat. By combining the MCS with other RMF products like a Condition Monitoring Center and vacuum dehydration unit, we offer you the optimal solution for your water contamination problems.
The compact design and rugged stainless steel housing allow a space-saving installation in the most demanding applications. The MCS measures water activity and oil temperature. The measured values are available on two 4-20mA outputs and one digital output with MODBUS RTU interface.
Typical Applications:
- Transformer oil
- Lubrication oil
- Hydraulic oil
- Engine oil
- Diesel fuel
