ConSite OIL
The condition of oil is a barometer of the health condition of a machine.
What ConSite OIL does:
- To monitor the condition of oil on a continuous basis *1, *2
- To inform abnormal changes of oil condition
- To provide consistent supports of detailed analysis of oil and inspection and repair of machines.
Do you know why
oil monitoring is vital for a good maintenance?
It is necessary to know the condition of oil to reduce the number of machine failures!
If oil deteriorates, the machine will be affected. Then, if a machine failure occurs, the oil will further deteriorate.
In other words, machine failures can be detected in their early stages by monitoring the condition of oil.
Oil sensors for engine and hydraulic system watch*the two types of oil 24/7.
Abnormalities are detected in early stages.
They monitor oil condition 24/7 as far as the machine is operating.
Realization of continual monitoring of oil condition
Even if oil analysis is periodically done on certain intervals, if an abnormality occurs in the middle of an interval, it may develop to a catastrophic failure before the next analysis.
We at Hitachi Construction Machinery developed a unique algorithm and made it possible to monitor oil condition 24/7 with the oil monitoring sensors.
Delivery of emergency reports by the smartphone app and E-mail
If an abnormality of oil condition is detected, information is sent by the smartphone app and E-mail.
Detailed oil analysis and quick actions at the job site
It is recommended that oil sampling and detailed oil analysis be done when an oil abnormality is reported.
When detailed oil analysis is done, a report, which is uniquely compiled for easy understanding by Hitachi Construction Machinery, will be issued.
ConSite and ConSite OIL support Hitachi machines for their entire life cycles.
The entire life of the machines is supported by ConSite.
The secret story of the development of the continual monitoring system with oil monitoring sensors (first in the industry*3) for 24/7*4
- “We want to use our machines with lower costs for longer hours.” “We’d like to prevent unexpected machine problems from occurring.”
- Being driven by such requests from almost all customers, we developed “ConSite OIL,” which accurately judges the oil condition like an experienced mechanic.
- *Information in this document is subject to change due to product and service improvements without notice.
- *1 A function to remotely monitor the condition of oil for preventive maintenance It doesn’t necessarily predict all kinds of failures which may occur on construction machines.
- *2 Certain operating conditions (duration of operating time, temperature, etc.) must be fulfilled for the oil sensors to properly function.
- *3 Regarding oil monitoring solution for hydraulic excavators as of April, 2018. According to our own research.
- *4 A system which monitors conditions of engine oil and hydraulic oil of hydraulic excavators on a continual basis during operation and periodically deliver result information.
