Description

Engine crankcase oil-mist detectors (VISATRON VN-series) for main and auxiliary diesel engines.

Did you know

The Schaller Automation VISATRON VN Series has a long heritage, with the VN87plus series being produced for almost 25 years. The latest iteration, the VISATRON VN2020, was launched to replace and upgrade the VN87plus series.
The VISATRON VN Series, particularly the VN2020, serves as a central optical analysis system that does not require damage localization. In contrast, the VISATRON VN301 is designed for large diesel engines and utilizes up to 20 detectors to provide precise damage localization.
The VISATRON VN Series is chosen for its continuous and simultaneous evacuation of crankcase atmosphere, ensuring a high level of safety for both the engine and operator. The VN2020 model, in particular, offers faster response times, reduced maintenance, and a user-friendly design with features like ATEX and IECEx certifications and CANopen and Modbus RTU connectivity.

Model	Damage Localization	Maintenance	Connectivity
VISATRON VN2020	No damage localization (central optical analysis)	Minimized total cost of ownership, no scavenging air filters required	CANopen and Modbus RTU
VISATRON VN301plus	Exact damage localization (up to 20 sensors)	Minimal maintenance costs, active dirt protection of optics	CANopen/MODBUS (RS485)
VISATRON VN87plus Series	No damage localization (header pipe sampling system)	Reduced maintenance costs with upgrade kits, scavenging air for optics	RS485 interface, 4-20mA connection
VISATRON VN93 Series	Damage selection through individual compartment suction pipe system with display of compartment	Easy maintenance	Not specified in search results
