In Line Quality Measurement

In line real-time measurement of product quality is becoming more important. Two key factors that can be measured in line are water content in ppm and particle size distribution according to ISO 4406:1999. Njord offers both measurement systems that can easily be integrated with our range of automated filtration systems and represent a remarkable cost effective solution to fluid management and contamination control.
- the Zelentech Water in Oil meter delivers continuous, real ime accurate monitoring of the ppm concentrati.on of ALL water (free, dissolved as well as emulsified).
- the Parker i-Count combined with Njord flow control offers laser based leading edge technology.

Parker Icount

The Incount Particle Detector from Parker represents the most up-to-date technology in solid particle detection. The design dynamics, attention to detail, and small size of the permanently mounted, on-line particle detector brings a truly innovative product to all industry. The laser based, leading-edge technology is a cost effective market solution to fluid management and contamination control.
