Frequently Asked Questions

DustDetect, equipped with an MCERT certified optical sensor, samples filtered air entering diesel engines to measure particulate content, ensuring proper filtration and preventing potential engine damage due to dusting.

DustDetect can sample from up to four different locations and processes these samples using a laser sensor that utilizes scattering techniques to measure both the quantity and size of particulates in the air. These measurements are then compared against predefined threshold levels, triggering an alert and activating a local alarm if thresholds are exceeded.

Industries that stand to gain from installing DustDetect are those characterized by inherent dustiness and other harmful particulates

DustDetect boasts key features including the capability to sample from four distinct air inlets, making it compatible with engines like the Cummins QSK-60 with its four individual turbochargers and air inlets, alongside a highly precise MCERT certified optical sensor. Its intelligent sampling algorithm ensures samples are taken only at specified minimum loads, while its continuous online presence empowers operation and maintenance crews to effectively manage extensive fleets

Detailed technical specifications for DustDetect are available in the accompanying specification sheet found here

DustDetect allows a simple and rapid installation. Its compact design facilitates the locating of an appropriate enclosure space. To optimise accuracy, it’s recommended to keep sample-tubing length minimal. Comprehensive installation instructions are available in the installation manual, accessible upon request, ensuring a straightforward setup procedure.

Operating DustDetect is straightforward and intuitive, yet IMBU also provides online training to ensure drivers and the operation and maintenance crew fully leverage its capabilities for optimal performance.
