MP Filtri is set to launch its new ICS inline contamination sensors – designed and manufactured in the UK to deliver an ideal combination of accurate real-time contamination monitoring and cost-effectiveness.  
 Specially created to open up contamination monitoring to new audiences, the ICS sensors are a simple to operate, high-value product that enables operators to check individual machines for particle build-up and take preventive action before damage and downtime occur.  
 
The sensors come in two different variations – Industrial with a 4-20mA analogue communications configuration, and a Mobile version with CANbus. They ensure operators can access 24/7 real-time contamination monitoring and gain critical early warning of particle build-up. 
 
 
 Key features of the new devices include: 
Robust and durable stainless-steel construction 
Space-efficient design 
Proven MP Filtri LED Light-extinction optical technology 
Inline mounting  
Calibration to ISO 4406 standard 
3-channel contamination measurement 
Automatic and remote-control flexibility 
Maximum pressure of 420 bar 
 
When used as part of a contamination control strategy, the benefits of the ICS sensors include:  
 
Lower service and maintenance costs 
Reduced downtime 
Longer system lifespans 
 
Designed and manufactured at our specialist Contamination Monitoring Products division in Evesham, Worcestershire, ICS sensors are made from premium hard-wearing components as is created for durability and longevity.  
 
Utilising 316-grade stainless steel, the ICS is extremely resistant to corrosion and is compatible with an array of fluid types. 
MP Filtri Managing Director John Gardner said: ‘The new ICS sensors can unleash a new information age for businesses with tight cost controls - delivering real-time contamination monitoring and tried-and-trusted critical early warning systems at a lower price than standard particle counters and analysers. 
“They enable operators to benefit from reliable, repeatable, contamination monitoring in systems where space and budgets are limited.”
