Komatsu 830E
Komatsu 830E Haul Trucks Monitored by Mag-Probe®
Solution
The operators equipped a pair of trucks with Mag-Shield® and Mag-Probe® kits as part of a trial. The intention was to provide oil filtration to capture as much ferrous contamination as possible and provide a method of visually monitoring iron contamination within the hubs and wheel motors. Mag-Shield® were installed in the wheel motor sumps, and Mag-Probe® were installed both in the wheel motor filler caps and the front wheel hubs.
