  2. Magnetic chip detector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_chip_detector

    A magnetic chip detector is an electronic instrument that attracts ferromagnetic particles (mostly iron chips). It is mainly used in aircraft engine oil and helicopter gearbox chip detection systems. Chip detectors can provide an early warning of an impending engine failure and thus greatly reduce the cost of an engine overhaul.

    At 09:15, while descending through 15,000 feet (4,600 m), the low oil pressure indicator on the TriStar's number 2 engine illuminated. [2] The flight engineer noted that the oil pressure on the #2 engine was fluctuating between 15 and 25 psi; the minimum pressure required for normal engine operation was 30 psi. [7]

  4. Tracer-gas leak testing - Wikipedia

  6. Leak detection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leak_detection

    The primary purpose of leak detection systems (LDS) is to help pipeline controllers to detect and localize leaks. LDS provide alarms and display other related data to the pipeline controllers to assist decision-making. Pipeline leak detection systems can also enhance productivity and system reliability thanks to reduced downtime and inspection ...

  7. Spectral noise logging - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spectral_noise_logging

    Spectral noise logging (SNL) is an acoustic noise measuring technique used in oil and gas wells for well integrity analysis, identification of production and injection intervals and hydrodynamic characterisation of the reservoir. SNL records acoustic noise generated by fluid or gas flow through the reservoir or leaks in downhole well components.

  8. Water in fuel sensor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_in_Fuel_Sensor

    A water in fuel sensor, or WiF sensor, is an electronic sensor used to indicate the presence of water in fuel.It is installed in a fuel filter.When the water level in the water separator reaches the warning level, the WiF sends an electrical signal to the ECU or to dashboard (lamp). [1]
