Advances in Optical Oil Debris Monitoring Technology

Abstract

The status of two optical debris monitoring programs is described. The optical debris monitors are directed at developing on line technology for identifying type and severity of faults in machinery through measurement of size, shape and morphology of debris particles in real time. Operational characteristics of the monitors in two different size ranges is described.
