with the Fluid.iO oil quality sensor for monitoring oil chemistry


With the FluidIX Lub-6 oil quality sensor you expand your oil condition monitoring to include the measurement of important chemical parameters. This allows you to detect signs of wear and contamination in the oil circuit at an early stage.

Oil condition analysis with Lub-6 – here's how it works!

The FluidIX Lub-6 oil quality sensor measures up to 6 important chemical parameters of your oil simultaneously, directly in the oil circuit.
Depending on the application and type of oil, the following measurements can be taken:

  • Water contents
  • Reciprocal oxidation
  • Nitration
  • Sulfation
  • soot content
  • Anti-wear additive
  • ZDDP anti-wear additive
  • EP/AW-Additive
  • Amine antioxidant additive
  • Oxidation

The measurements are recorded in real time, enabling continuous monitoring of the oil condition. You can view your measurements over time or export the sensor data for further use via the integrated web interface.

Lubricants in CHP (combined heat and power) plants

Lubricating oils in combined heat and power (CHP) plants in industrial applications are subjected to heavy stress. Constantly high temperatures, continuous operation, and the direct proximity to the combustion process put a strain on the oil. Continuous oil condition monitoring is particularly important here to ensure optimal operation and the longevity of the CHP engines. The oil ensures optimal lubrication, cooling, cleaning, and neutralization at all times.

  • Sentron LD 5000 / 8000
  • Delvac XHP extra 10W40
  • Fuchs Titan Ganymet plus
  • Shell Mysella S5 N40

Oils and lubricants in compressed air compressors

Compressor oils operate under high pressure and high temperatures and are often in direct contact with the pumped medium. This makes them particularly susceptible to thermal degradation, oxidation, and chemical interactions with gases or process media. Even a slight change in oil viscosity or chemistry directly affects the efficiency, sealing performance, and operational reliability of the compressor.
