Continuous inline oil condition monitoring using MIR, OPC & Viscosity technology. Plug-and-play installation, lab-equivalent accuracy, 24/7 operation — no sampling, no lab delays, no missed failures.
The FluidInspectIR® Inline range covers entry-level condition monitoring through to full multi-point system integration. All variants share the same MIR measurement core; viscosity and optical particle counting depend on the variant.
The FluidInspectIR® PLUS is the standard single-point inline oil condition monitor. Designed for straightforward installation on individual assets, it delivers continuous real-time analysis of all key lubricant parameters via MODBUS or LTE output, with PROFIBUS available on request.
The FluidInspectIR® ULTRA builds on the PLUS platform with enhanced sensing capabilities and connectivity options. Designed for demanding applications including ATEX-certified environments and installations requiring extended protocol support or higher measurement frequency.
The FluidInspectIR® HUB enables multi-point monitoring across several assets from a single centralised unit. Purpose-built for mining, mobile equipment and other high-value moving assets, with dedicated engine, hydraulic and compressor oil modules daisy-chained to one controller and data aggregated into one output stream or connected to DataInspectIR®.
The FluidInspectIR® ATEX system is purpose-built for deployment in explosive atmospheres — oil refineries, offshore platforms, chemical plants, and other classified hazardous areas. Certified to ATEX Zone 1 and Zone 21, it delivers the same continuous MIR oil condition monitoring as the ULTRA platform, packaged in a flameproof (Ex db) explosion-proof enclosure.
All FluidInspectIR® Inline variants share the same MIR measurement core and IP67 housing — ensuring consistent accuracy and interchangeability across your asset base. Supply voltage differs by variant: PLUS and ULTRA accept 100–240 V AC or 24 V DC, while ATEX and HUB run on 24 V DC.
Every FluidInspectIR® Inline unit measures multiple oil condition parameters in a single measurement cycle — no multiple sensors, no multiple sample points.
Detects water ingress and moisture build-up before emulsification or corrosion occurs.
Continuous viscosity monitoring detects thinning from contamination or thermal degradation.
Tracks oxidation build-up to predict remaining oil life and optimise drain intervals.
Monitors sulphation in gas and diesel engines — early warning of H₂S attack or combustion issues.
Total Acid and Base Number monitoring for additive depletion and contamination detection.
Real-time soot loading measurement in diesel and gas engine oils. Predicts filter and drain requirements.
Tracks additive depletion and top-up requirements in metalworking, rolling, and process fluids.
Detects fuel dilution, coolant ingress, and cross-contamination events before damage occurs.
FluidInspectIR® Inline outputs data via industry-standard protocols — integrating with your control system, CMMS, or DataInspectIR® cloud platform without custom development.
MODBUS RTU/TCP interfaces for direct connection to PLCs and DCS systems, with PROFIBUS available on request.
LTE connectivity for remote assets, mobile equipment, and locations without fixed infrastructure.
4–20 mA analogue output per parameter for direct connection to existing PLC input cards.
Connect directly to the DataInspectIR® cloud dashboard for trend analysis, alerting, and CMMS integration.
The ATEX variant (ULTRA) is certified for Zone 1 (gas) and Zone 21 (dust) explosive atmospheres — suitable for offshore, refinery, and solvent-handling environments.
