Hydraulic Systems
"It almost goes without saying how important the condition of the lubrication is to the effective operation of any hydraulic system."
Used in everything from mobile plant to machine tools, the basis for effective running of a hydraulic system is its ability to transmit force from one point to another using fluid under pressure – usually oil. The condition of this oil is paramount.
Failure can be attributed to a number of different causes – issues such as contamination, viscosity or temperature are common. As the sophistication and operating pressures of hydraulic equipment continue to grow – so too does the cost to repair.
The importance of implementing an effective monitoring and maintenance programme has never been more obvious in a drive towards increasing the service life and decreasing the service costs of hydraulic systems.
Tan Delta Oil Quality Sensor
Our customers who have invested in the Tan Delta Oil Quality Sensor to provide 24 x 7 monitoring of their hydraulic equipment have seen a quick and significant return on their investment.
Improvements in performance together with extended component and fluid life span are notable.
Add to this the reduction in downtime and a significant fall in repair costs and the decision to implement the OQS becomes easy.
