The monitoring and maintenance of rail infrastructure are essential for safe, reliable, and cost-effective rail transport. With our state-of-the-art sensor systems, WearDetect and LevelPro, we offer innovative solutions that enable precise monitoring of your infrastructure, optimize maintenance processes, and minimize downtime.

WearDetect – Early warning system for equipment in the oil circuit
The WearDetect oil particle sensor has been proven to detect the earliest signs of iron wear. It enables continuous real-time monitoring of critical components such as gearboxes, thereby extending maintenance planning based on current condition data. By detecting both fine and coarse particles and measuring oil temperature or water content, WearDetect helps prevent unplanned failures and increase return on investment.
A typical application in the rail sector is the monitoring of axle wear.

LevelPro – High-Precision Level Measurement in Harsh Environments
Our LevelPro stainless steel level sensor provides reliable, contact-based measurements of liquids such as fuels, oils, and coolants. Its rugged design, combined with sealed electronics, makes it ideal for use with aggressive liquids and in demanding environments. Continuous measurement supports drivers in the cab by providing timely warnings of low liquid levels—helping to prevent breakdowns and make operations safer.

Common applications include level measurement directly in the driver’s cab, which alerts the driver to low coolant levels during startup or operation. Locomotives are prevented from being taken out of service, as well as accurate tracking of fuel consumption and reporting of any fuel losses is provided.

Advantages at a glance:
• Highly reliable, durable technology with no moving parts
• Real-time data transmission via DCS, PLC, CMMS, or IoT systems
• Early warnings to protect critical assets
• Easy installation and intuitive interpretation of results
• Cost savings through minimization of unplanned downtime

These sensor-based monitoring systems represent a significant improvement in rail infrastructure monitoring. They enable precise condition monitoring, support predictive maintenance, and thus ensure smooth, safe operations.
