• The rotary valve also has a position marked 'O' at which air is supplied to
both tubes, and zero automatically (and manually if necessary) adjusted at
each cycle. In addition at position 'L' an average sample of the crankcase is
compared to air.
LEVEL TYPE
LEVEL TYPE (Light Scatter)
• The disadvantage of obscuration types is that they are
generally slow to operate and suffer from inaccuracies and
false alarms caused by such things as a dirty lens.
Light scatter do not suffer from these problems, are faster
reacting and do not need to set zero during engine
operations. The relationship between the light landing on
the sensor is nearly proportional to the oil mist density
therefore the unit can be calibrated in mg/l.
•
It is possible to have the sensor and a LED emitter in a
single unit which may be mounted on the crankcase. Several
of these can be placed on the engine each with a unique
address poled by a central control unit. The results of which
may be displayed on the control room

In the light-scattering method , two receivers are used
instead of one as in the light absorption
method. The first receiver receives light that has
survived absorption, just as in the
light-absorption method. But the second receiver, which
is located at a distance from the light
path, receives light that is scattered from oil mist
particles
The intensity of the scattered light increases with the
increase of oil mist concentration, and
The receiver shows a fairly linear relationship between
input and output. This allows easy signal treatments and
good measurement accuracy

Crankcase relief doors
• The crankcase doors are spring loaded valves
which lift up in case there is any rise of pressure
inside the crankcase. Once the pressure is released
they re-seat to prevent any ingress of fresh air.
This helps especially in case of any ingress of air
that can lead to a secondary explosion followed
by a lot of surge and damage to the crankcase.
• The Crankcase relief doors are also fitted to
prevent any damage to the crankcase and ingress
of fresh air inside the crankcase.
