    • Can the sensor detect wear material?

      Yes, the sensor will detect wear material, both ferrous and non-ferrous. Wear material typically shows up as a change in the oil behaviour, often as disrupted data which is not directly related to changes in the oil temperature. The Sense-2 display ...
    • Can the sensor be used in hazardous environments?

      We have a "HAZ" version of the sensor specifically designed, built and certified to ATEX zone 2 / intrinsically safe / Class 1 Div 2. EX compliance standards: BS EN IEC 60079-0:2018 BS EN 60079-11:2012 This sensor works in exactly the same way as the ...
    • Can the sensor be used in dielectric fluids?

      Yes, the sensor is fully compatible with dielectric fluids. If you have a specific fluid you want to use the sensor with, please check our oil database on our website HERE If the fluid you wish to use the sensor with has not yet been profiled for use ...
    • Does the sensor work in fuel?

      Yes, the sensor is compatible with fuel. We have several examples of the sensor being used to monitor fuel condition and the presence of contaminants, or other substances being added to fuel.
    • Does the sensor work in coolant?

      No, the sensor does not work with fluids that are predominantly water. The sensor is specifically designed to be used in oil. Using it in a predominantly water based fluid will return results that are unreadable and may damage the sensor.
