MF-Detector (Metal Fragment Detector)
![]() |
1. | MF-Detector is a high-sensitivity sensor to detect conductive particles such as copper, aluminum, and white metal in luquid oil. | |
| 2. | MF-Detector can detect damage of bearing parts etc. | ||
| 3. | The combination of MF-Detector and TF-Detector (Trace of Ferrous powder Detector) provides total damage prevention by monitoring the lubricating oil. | ||

Features of MF-Detector
| Detection specialized for conductive particles MF-Detector detects conductive particles such as copper, aluminum, and white metal, and moreover a small amount of air bubbles in liquid is not reacted. |
|
| Wide measuring range It can detect conductive particles from the size of 0.4 mm. (Detectable size varies depending on the material and the shape of particles.) |
|
| Sensitivity Its sensitivity is in proportion with the conductivity of the particles. |
|
| Three size classified The detected particles are classified and counted in three (3) size (Large, Middle and Small). |
|
| Alarm contact signal Alarm contact signal is given in case particle counts exceed preset limits. Preset limits and monitoring period can be set by the monitor. |
|
| *(Power supply: 15 to 24VDC ) |
