Your benefits

Simple and fast
sensing and reading of the oil temperature and its remaining service life.

Reliable
warning messages issued if the predefined limit values, such as max. oil temperature, are exceeded.

Individually planned
maintenance intervals allow optimum utilization of oil service life and reduce maintenance costs.

Keeping an eye on the remaining service life of your oil

Diagnostic units are the perfect partner to our gear units. They help to monitor the remaining oil service life during operation, perform diagnostics and optimize maintenance intervals.
All of these facts make these diagnostic units an important component of any condition monitoring concept.

  • The perfect sensor for determining the remaining service life of the gear unit oil and reliably indicating the right time for an oil change
  • A thermal sensor installed in the gear unit measures the oil temperature and sends this information to an evaluation unit, which then calculates the remaining service life for the specified oil type
  • The diagnostic unit takes into account the oxidation characteristics of the different oils under thermal stress

  • The DUO diagnostic unit is recommended for us in a wide range of industries and areas of application. The continuous monitoring of the remaining oil life makes it possible to determine the optimum time to change the oil.
  • This is especially useful when working with fluctuating loads, speeds and ambient temperatures. Such conditions make it difficult to calculate the optimum time for an oil change using service life curves.
  • The DUO diagnostic unit can also reduce the risk of failure in critical systems where machine and production standstills are associated with high costs.
