Product Operation
The Oil Sentinel system continuously monitors and displays the following
conditions:
- Oxidation - indicates wear from corrosion and excess friction by measuring oil breakdown (acid buildup) and loss of lubricity.
- Water Contamination - indicates lubrication film breakdown from excess water.
- Temperature - indicates excessive heat of the oil by measuring a relative difference in ambient to reservoir temperature.
- Level - indicates a proper supply of lubricant by measuring the absolute
level of the oil in the reservoir.
