Description

Oil Moisture Content

In various industrial sectors, to ensure process quality and meet performance indicators, a procedure such as precise measurement of moisture content in oil is required. Water in oil can lead to the formation of emulsions and sludge, causing clogging of oil filters, pumps, and other engine components. This can result in increased wear of parts and premature equipment failure

Moisture in Oil

The oil moisture meter is designed to measure the moisture content in mineral and ester oils. Unlike the chemical method of moisture analysis, the moisture meter provides continuous monitoring of moisture content and quickly detects water infiltration in the tank caused by leaks, reducing repair costs and system downtime. Continuous measurement of water content in hydraulic systems is an effective way to maintain the quality of equipment operation.

With our measuring device, you can optimize technological operations, prevent production downtime, and ensure compliance with the strictest quality standards. You can rely on our expertise in moisture measurement to improve production processes.

Oil Moisture Sensor

The oil moisture meter FO 510 is a highly accurate sensor with excellent stability, specially designed to measure water activity (aw) and oil temperature (t) in lubricating, hydraulic, transformer oils, and diesel fuel. The measured values are output as two analog signals 4…20 mA, as well as a digital Modbus RTU signal. With additional optional software, the user can change the moisture meter settings, set the required Modbus protocol parameters, and adjust the output configuration.

Moisture Content of Oil

Moisture content of oil is the percentage ratio of water contained in the oil to the total volume of the oil. This is an important parameter, as the presence of water in the oil can negatively affect its properties and performance, especially in areas such as lubrication, hydraulics, and transmissions. High moisture content can lead to corrosion, emulsion formation, and reduced lubricating properties of the oil.

Various methods are often used to determine the moisture content of oil, such as the Coulier method, the Karl Fischer method, and others.

Application of Oil Moisture Meters

An oil moisture meter is a device used to measure the moisture content in various types of oils, including mineral and ester oils. It usually consists of a sensor that interacts with the oil and an electronic unit that processes the obtained data and displays the measurement results. The oil moisture meter allows for prompt monitoring of moisture levels and detecting water ingress into the oil due to leaks or other factors. This is important for maintaining the quality and safety of machinery and equipment operation, as excessive moisture content in the oil can lead to corrosion, oxidation, and other problems. Oil moisture meters typically have high accuracy and reliability, making them useful tools for maintenance and control of technical systems using oils.
