The MAN Multi Fluid Monitor establishes itself in the oil lube condition monitoring market for marine and industrial engines
Since its launch in 2020, the Multi Fluid Monitor has emerged as the undisputed leader in real-time monitoring of engine health. Thanks to quick and easy deployment through an international network of experts, this solution has revolutionized engine failure prevention and maintenance optimization, transforming industrial equipment management.
What is MAN Multi Fluid Monitor for lube oil?
MFM is a smart maintenance solution that analyzes the condition of engine lube oil and potential residues in real time. This continuous monitoring allows early detection of engine lube oil anomalies before they become serious.
The collected data provides operators the means to implement condition-based maintenance strategies. This enables quick corrective action, even during high-risk cold starts, reducing operational costs (OPEX) and improving engine availability. The risk of breakdown is thus reduced, and the return on investment improved. Ultimately, the MAN MFM improves performance and optimizes equipment.
Condition-based maintenance particularly suited for power, merchant and military marine sectors
The MAN Multi Fluid Monitor is particularly well-suited for markets where machine availability and safety is paramount. Thus, MFM is particularly deployed in the merchant navy (60%), the military navy (21%), but also on power plants (17%). This significant adoption in these key areas demonstrates its ability to meet operators' specific needs for continuous monitoring and safety.
Significant adoption in merchant and military marines demonstrate the crucial role that permanent lube oil condition monitoring plays in the asset availability
A universal lube oil monitoring solution for 4-stroke and now available for 2-stroke engines application
The versatility of the MAN Multi Fluid Monitor is also a major advantage since the solution adapts to a wide variety of MAN engines but also third-party engines. Easily integrated into all 4-stroke engines since 2020, whether new or already in service, on board a ship or in a power plant. The solution is now ready with 2-stroke engines (system oil only). This adaptability is a major asset for operators managing an extensive fleet of engines.
Multi Fluid Monitor certified in cybersecurity
MAN MFM is certified for ship cyber resilience and cybersecurity of onboard systems and equipment (IACS UR E27). It protects the ship's interfaces in the event of a cyberattack, meeting the requirements of military navies.
Digitalization of maintenance to optimize engine performance
The Multi Fluid Monitor, through its integration into the Asset+ digital ecosystem and its ability to provide real-time data for remote analysis, embodies the maintenance transformation to maintenance 4.0. This digital solution transforms equipment management by improving reliability, performance and service life.
As a stand-alone on-site solution, the MFM can be integrated seamlessly into PrimeServ Assist thanks to the MAN CEON cloud connection. This integration enables enhanced remote support, increasing the responsiveness and proactivity of maintenance teams, reducing downtime and associated costs.
