Description

The Fluid Condition Sensor (FCS) is an online device designed for constant, real-time monitoring of critical fuel and oil parameters in hydraulic and marine applications, including conductivity, permittivity, moisture content, temperature, and pressure. Low quality, incorrect fuel or oil lubrication, combined with infrequent maintenance is often one of the primary causes of damage in machines, such as large diesel engines, industrial gearboxes, gas turbines, turbochargers, and hydraulic systems. The Fluid Condition Sensor (FCS) from Parker is a highly robust, online multi-parameter sensor designed to prevent this by providing constant, real-time monitoring of any four critical parameters, including oil quality (permittivity or conductivity), moisture content, temperature, and pressure. The FCS enables monitoring of fuel dilution, soot ingress and oil contamination of fluids, allowing maintenance personnel and engineers to determine when oil needs to be serviced or replaced. When used as part of a proactive maintenance program, the Fluid Condition Sensor can help reduce the overall operating cost of machinery by reducing failure-related downtime, removing the need for routine checks, and eliminating costly lab testing. The sensor communicates via Modbus over RS485 as its main communications protocol and has the ability to either trigger an alarm or connect to an optional Sensor Display Interface (SDI). The SDI displays the measured values on a backlit LCD and has four 4-20mA outputs and an opto-isolated alarm output. Unlike many competing fluid condition sensors on the market, the Parker FCS measures AC Conductivity reported in nS/m.
