Oil Debris Sensor

Oil Debris Sensor

The Gill Sensors Oil Debris Sensor (WearDetect 4212 series) is a compact, solid-state condition-monitoring sensor engineered to provide continuous, real-time detection of internal mechanical wear in gearboxes, engines, transmission systems, and industrial machinery. Designed to directly replace a standard oil drain plug or fit into an oil bypass line, the solid-state magnetic probe continuously captures ferrous debris, differentiating between fine wear particles and coarse failure chippings while simultaneously monitoring oil temperature and water/dielectric contamination. Housed with a remote, compact electronics unit, it communicates real-time machine health directly to external control platforms via standard 0–10 V, 4–20 mA, CAN, or Modbus outputs, enabling early maintenance intervention and preventing catastrophic equipment downtime.

  • Description

Description

WearDetect oil debris sensors have been proven in use by world-leading manufacturers, to provide the earliest warning of the initial stages of machine failure. WearDetect is primarily used in oil based systems, such as gearboxes, across manufacturing and also by operators of critical and remote equipment. WearDetect can be used for stand-alone measurement, integrated into a larger PLC or SCADA system.

Features

  • Real-time, continuous condition monitoring
  • Captures and measures both fine & coarse ferrous wear debris
  • Proven high return on investment by minimising unplanned downtime
  • WearDetect sensor data can be used to predict and schedule maintenance actions
  • Communicates with DCS/PLC/CMMS or IoT systems
  • Outputs: 0-10V, 4-20mA, CAN
  • Oil temperature or water presence measurement
  • No expert knowledge or training required to interpret results
  • Multiple thread adaptor options for easy installation

Applications

  • Wind turbine condition monitoring
  • Rail asset monitoring
  • Automotive manufacturing
  • Industrial processes including paper & chemicals
  • Conveyor drives within distribution facilities
  • Condition monitoring in mining industries
  • Crane gearbox monitoring
