Grid Switch™ Wear Detector

Grid Switch Wear Detector

The Spinner II Grid Switch™ wear detector provides early warning of excessive wear in lubricated machinery.

 

The Grid Switch detector is effective with most lubricated machinery, including engines, transmissions, gear boxes, turbines, compressors and pumps. An intrinsically safe monitor and metal particle detector are available for hazardous environments.

 

Always on Guard

A Grid Switch detector continuously monitors lubricating fluids for metal debris - the first sign of trouble when bearings, connecting rods and other metal parts begin to experience accelerated wear. When sufficient wear debris is present, the Grid Switch detector triggers a user-specified response, such as a warning lamp, audible alarm, or automated shutdown system.

 

Benefits of Early Wear Detection

Early detection allows operators to perform proactive maintenance and avoid costly overhauls and downtime. Other benefits include:

  • Takes the guesswork out of wear detection
  • Improves process reliability
  • May prolong equipment life
  • Helps avoid catastrophic failures, unnecessary overhauls and equipment downtime
  • Assists in identifying sources of wear For more details, see the sales sheet below or contact your Spinner II Products representative.

 

Cleanable Screens

A Complete Oil-Cleaning Solution

Cleanable Screens

Eliminate Disposal Filters Forever


Spinner II CS (centrifuge/screen) systems combine a Spinner II oil-cleaning centrifuge with a full-flow, wire cloth cleanable screen.
The CS Cleanable Screen processes the full flow of oil through its stainless steel wire cloth mesh. Meanwhile, a portion of the oil also passes through the Spinner II centrifuge to remove both large particles and fine contaminants down to less than one micron.

 

Spinner II CS Advantages

  • Eliminate Filters
    A Spinner II CS system permanently replaces disposable oil filters.
  • Extends Drains
    Large capacity and high efficiency let you extend oil drains two, three, even four times or more in many applications.
  • Extends Service
    Engines can operate for extended periods between service.
  • Provides Superior Engine Protection
    With large-particle protection - plus sub-micron particle removal - it's the ultimate safeguard against engine wear.
  • Reduces Waste   
    Completely cleanable, reusable system saves you money by reducing disposal costs and eliminating filter expenses.

 

Pump, Motor & Centrifuge Systems

Pump motor and centrifuge systems

Dry sumps, tanks of oil, large gearboxes and hydraulic systems a pump and motor set can assist by providing the correct pressure and flow to the centrifuge enabling the best possible separation of the particles from the oil.

Engine Oil Contamination

Organic Combustion By-Products

  • Carbon Soot
  • Un-burnt Fuel
  • Fuel Resins & Solvents

Leads to....

Increased oil thickening, engine component wear, oil filter plugging.

 

Inorganic Contamination

  • Ingested Dust & Dirt
  • Wear Metals
  • Built-in Dirt
  • Gasket Material

Leads to................. Accelerated engine wear.

 

What We Know About Soot

  • Combustion by-product
  • Travels from combustion chamber past ring pack into sump
  • Forms primary soot particles
    20 - 40 nm.
  • Agglomerate to form particles
    0.1 - 2 µm.
soot

 

Primary Soot Particles

  • Relative density: 1.9
  • Hard, abrasive and small

  • Direct, linear correlation between wear and soot concentration
  • Higher the soot concentration, greater the wear observed.
  • Lube oil manufacturers try to extend oil life by holding more contaminant in suspension

The Centrifugal Advantage

  • Turbocharger bearings, gears and compressors are exposed to cleaner oil containing far fewer of the fine "lapping compound" type suspended particulates
  • Less wear occurs in these critical areas, usually the most susceptible to metals circulating in the oil which are too small for the full-flow filter or conventional bypass to remove
