6.2.2
Choosing the Sensor Mounting Location
The performance of the sensor will be enhanced through careful consideration of the mounting
location. The following guidelines should be followed, See Figure 10:
Sensor should be in a horizontal position.
The sensor should not be mounted in the bottom of a sump since the sensor head may
become
restricted preventing correct operation.
Dynamic oil flow is necessary; do not mount in places where the oil is likely to stagnate
or be static, since the oil in the sensor needs to be representative of the whole system.
When the oil quality sensor is mounted in a pipeline, please ensure that the sensor will
not restrict flow.
When mounting the oil quality sensor in a lubrication system, for maximum
performance, please ensure the sensor is located prior to the oil filters, oil coolers etc.
to ensure oil is representative of the whole system.
6.2.3
Fitting Method
The standard thread is ½ inch BSPP/NPT requiring an 32mm spanner for installation.
Decide on an appropriate location for sensor head installation.
Drain the lubricant sufficiently to allow the sensor to be fitted.
Install the sensor head into the selected location/position, torque to 20Nm being
careful not to over tighten.
Route the cable, fixing (cable ties) at appropriate intervals.
Avoid sharp edges and hot surfaces.
Connect the sensor to the chosen interface.
