Oil Debris Monitoring Systems ODMS for early failure detection comprise a sensor located within the lubrication system of a machine, an electronic interface either as stand-alone alarm, or communicating with the plant management system – aircraft mission computer to trend oil debris and allow intelligent maintenance decisions.
From compact conveyor drives to helicopter transmissions. Standby generators to wind turbines and hydro electric plants. Nuclear power plant cooling pumps, oil refineries, food processing, ships and aircraft.
The objective is always the same: Cost effective early warning of a failure, to minimise downtime and consequential damage.
Oil Debris is very often the first indication of impending failure, efficient capture and categorisation of wear-debris particles, in real time, gives reliable alert and trending data, allowing time to plan maintenance and minimises both downtime and cost. To safeguard your military mission with increased safety and enhanced asset availability. Anokhi Consulting Engineers offer a wealth of experience with the OEM and operators, working on retrofits, modifications and upgrading older equipment to modern standards.
Where applicable advising on IECEx, CSA and ATEX hazardous environment and gaining Aerospace Supplementary Type Certificate (STC).
Oil quality systems protect your asset through protecting the life blood of the machine, clean healthy lubricant. Parameters measured include on-line remaining useful life sensors to monitor the degradation of modern synthetic lubricants. Oil analysis on-line and off-line for additive depletion detection and acid number correlation. As environmental concerns demand lower oil consumption, resulting in less frequent top ups and loss, aging lubricant becomes a threat to machine health through lack of lubricity and secondary effects due to acid attack.
Anokhi Consulting have a wealth of knowledge and experience in Early Failure Detection (EFD) from aerospace, submarine to steel rolling mills.
Acting as expert witness in mediation for root cause and conflict resolution, supporting OEM – operator – client – regulatory authorities, in tear down report and wear debris analysis interpretation.
