Poseidon Systems Trident™ – a continuous "blood test" for gearboxes and oil systems

Lubricating oil carries every trace of wear inside a machine. The Trident sensor sits directly on the oil line, measuring oil quality and counting metal debris 24/7 – the earliest and most reliable way to know that gears and bearings are failing.

In simple terms: instead of sampling oil every 3 months, sending it to a lab and waiting for results (by which time the machine may already have failed), you have a test instrument mounted right on the oil line. The day the oil starts to degrade, takes on water or shows iron particles, you know.

Real-time oil qualityKnow the current oil condition, degradation trends and water contamination – without waiting for the lab.
Remaining useful oil life (RUL) forecastChange oil based on condition rather than schedule, significantly cutting oil consumption and cost.
Online metal debrisDetects ferrous and non-ferrous particles in the oil – the earliest sign of mechanical failure in oil-lubricated equipment.
Reliability event alertsTracks trends and alerts on abnormal changes, feeding into the maintenance plan.
IIoT readyThe AP2200 gateway connects sensors to the Internet for easy, reliable data collection and SCADA/cloud integration.
On-the-spot testingPortable and benchtop ferrous wear analysers give instant results in the field or the workshop.

How to start

Nominate your plant's most critical gearbox or oil system for assessment.

PlusSmart installs a trial sensor running alongside your current oil sampling schedule – you compare the two methods yourself and see how much earlier the sensor warns.

FAQ

Poseidon Trident frequently asked questions

Does the equipment need to be stopped to install the sensor?

The sensor is installed on the oil line, usually on a branch that can be isolated; PlusSmart surveys the site to choose a location that fits your shutdown schedule.

Does it completely replace sending oil samples for analysis?

Online monitoring gives early, continuous warning; laboratory analysis remains useful for detailed confirmation. Many plants greatly reduce how often they send samples.

Which oils can it measure?

Industrial lubricating oils for gearboxes, turbines, compressors and hydraulics – PlusSmart confirms suitability for each application.
