DETECTING MACHINERY FAILURES FASTER Product Description WearDetect Oil Debris Sensor is proven in use by some of the world’s leading manufacturers, to provide the earliest warning of the initial stages of machine failure. WearDetect Oil Debris Sensor comprises of two key elements. The sensor probe, that comes with multiple thread adaptor options, is coupled with the gearbox in place of the standard magnetic drain plug. The probe is then connected by wire to the separate electronics module, which turns the sensor signals into useful data. This data is then relayed via analogue or digital communications...
