Hy-Trax- Manually Controlled Fluid Sampling System

Hydac-HY-TRAX-imageFeatures and Benefits

• Provides Local Visibility to the Fluid Condition of Critical Systems.
• Integrated micro VSD, (Variable Speed Drive), pump/motor provides
optimal flow for accurate sensor readings in variable conditions.
 • The HY-TRAX Manually Controlled Fluid Sampling System allows a
user to retrieve ISO cleanliness levels from a reservoir tank or a low-
pressure line (<50 psi max).
• The compact design allows for installations with tight space
constraints.
• The Manual rheostat VSD pump controller is housed in a compact IP
40 enclosure and allows the user to adjust the pump flow for optimal
sensor readings.
• Optional AC adapter allows the unit to operate on 115 VAC 60 Hz. 24
VDC is standard.
• Fluorocarbon elastomer (FKM) seals.
• Fluid viscosities up to 350 cSt.
•Flow control valve providing optimal pressure for accurate sensor
readings.
Hy-Trax- Telematics Communications Module with Remote Controlled Sampling System
Hy-Trax-telematic
 Features and Benefits
•Provides Remote Visibility to the Fluid Condition of Critical Systems.
•Integrated micro VSD, (Variable Speed Drive), pump/motor provides
optimal flow for accurate sensor readings in variable conditions.
•This HY-TRAX Remote Oil Contamination Sensor Package allows
remote access via the Internet and smart devices to fluid particle
counts, temperature, and percent water saturation levels (optional)
displayed on a customizable dashboard. The fluid sampling system
collects data and the communications module transmits this data
via GSM cellular at scheduled intervals. Users can receive alerts via
email when a fluid’s ISO contamination code or water saturation level
(optional) reaches user defined critical levels. The unit can sample
fluid directly from a fluid reservoir or low pressure line (<50 psi).
•The Communications Module automatically controls fluid flow to
compensate for viscosity changes due to temperature or fluid type. All
data is transmitted through a secure VPN and archived in a protected
database in the cloud to allow real-time and historical analysis.
