A new moisture-in-oil sensor for continuous monitoring
To operate a gearbox, a transformer or an industrial plant safely and stably over a long period of time, it is often necessary to monitor the condition of the lubricants with the support of sensor technology. For such monitoring functions, this company has developed the new Moisture-in-Oil sensor (photo). This is a compact, digital humidity and temperature module (RH/T) that measures the relative degree of saturation of water (in %RH) in oils and fuels. The sensor is delivered temperature compensated and calibrated, and with a test board with analog (0–10 V) outputs. — Innovative Sensor Technology IST AG, Ebnat-Kappel, Switzerland
