The AMOT Metal Particle Detector Switch is, without a doubt, one of the most logical ways of continually sampling lube oil for metal particles. This monitoring device allows operators of reciprocating and rotating equipment the peace of mind in knowing that the their lube oil is continuously being checked for any metal chips, particles or dust that indicate a failure. PRINCIPLE OF OPERATIONThe design is simple...oil enters the top of the switch and is passed through a perforated board that holds an electrical grid. The oil is sampled as it passes through the electrical grid and then exits through the bottom of the switch. This grid remains open until the time that a metal chip or metal particle bridges the gap in the electrical grid which will close the circuit. This can be wired to either an alarm or a shutdown relay depending on the operators requirements. IDEAL PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE TOOLThe AMOT metal particle detector is a true planned preventative maintenance tool that alerts operators to problems before they become catastrophic. The AMOT Metal Particle Detectors are ideally suited for Gas & Diesel Engines, Compressors, Gas Turbines, Steam Turbines, Pumps, Transmissions and Gear Boxes. Applications: Reciprocating Equipment:
