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.

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.
