Extend service life, reduce unplanned downtime, and optimise maintenance across your plant with real-time oil condition monitoring.
Manufacturing plants rely on consistent uptime from engines, gearboxes, compressors, and hydraulics. These systems operate under pressure—often in hot, dirty, or high-vibration conditions that accelerate oil degradation and component fatigue.
While traditional servicing and lab sampling have value, they only capture snapshots. Tan Delta’s real-time oil condition monitoring gives you continuous visibility into oil health, enabling smarter maintenance, improved reliability, and reduced operating costs.
Catch oil-related problems early before they result in full equipment failure.
Extend service intervals without compromising performance or uptime.
Reduce oil waste, spare parts usage, and labour tied to avoidable servicing.
Monitor compressors, gearboxes, and critical machinery in real time.
Avoid unnecessary servicing and reduce oil and material consumption.
Act on live oil condition data instead of relying on fixed schedules.
Tan Delta sensors are in use across automated manufacturing lines, energy systems, and mechanical drives. The system is used to reduce unplanned stoppages, optimise service timing, and extend equipment life—all while reducing oil waste.
It integrates with most factory monitoring systems and works across a wide range of lubricants.
Tan Delta’s system delivers accurate, real-time oil condition data for manufacturing equipment. It supports preventive maintenance strategies, reduces cost per machine hour, and protects your production capacity from oil-related failures.
Real-time oil condition analysis for fixed installations in standard and hazardous environments.
Pre-configured kits with sensors, displays, and cabling — engineered for quick install into engines, gearboxes, hydraulics, and rotating equipment.
Displays, gateways, and manifolds for integration, readout, and remote monitoring in any environment.
Can Tan Delta sensors be used across different manufacturing processes?
Yes. Tan Delta sensors are used in automated production lines, injection molding machines, CNC systems, and other equipment using hydraulic, gear, or compressor oil.
What types of oil do the sensors monitor in manufacturing settings?
The system supports all common industrial lubricants including hydraulic fluids, gear oils, compressor oils, and synthetic blends used in manufacturing machinery.
How are sensors installed on manufacturing equipment?
Sensors are typically installed using existing oil inspection or sampling ports. Installation is non-intrusive and does not require major modifications to machines.
Can the system integrate with existing factory monitoring infrastructure?
Yes. Tan Delta systems support integration with SCADA, PLC, MES, and cloud platforms for seamless data visibility and analytics.
How does real-time oil condition monitoring improve manufacturing uptime?
Continuous monitoring identifies early signs of oil degradation or contamination, helping prevent unplanned equipment failures and enabling predictive maintenance scheduling.
Is the system suitable for high-volume or precision-critical production environments?
Yes. The system provides real-time insights with high sensitivity, making it suitable for operations where equipment reliability and process stability are essential.
What is the TDN Value?
TDN (Tan Delta Number) is a single real-time value that represents overall oil condition. It is calculated from the sensor’s raw data and allows users to track oil health and rate of change over time. TDN enables data-driven decisions on when to service or replace oil.
Does this replace oil sampling in manufacturing plants?
It complements oil sampling and can reduce manual sampling frequency. Many users rely on Tan Delta for daily monitoring while using lab tests for periodic validation.
Does the system replace lab-based oil sampling?
The system provides continuous real-time oil condition data that can reduce or eliminate the need for frequent manual sampling, depending on site requirements.
