Abstract: A method of health management of a monitored system includes collecting component condition indicator data used to calculate a plurality of component health indicators. Component fault severity and potential failure modes are determined utilizing the component condition indicator data. The potential failure modes are ranked in order of likelihood to isolate the failure mode. A system of health management for monitored apparatus includes a fault severity module to derive a plurality of component health indicators from collected component condition indicator data, the plurality of component health indicators indicative of fault severity of a plurality of components. A fault isolation module separately derives a ranked listing of potential fault/failure modes utilizing the component condition indicator data.

Abstract: Disclosed are systems and methods for measuring the fluid quality of oil, or other fluids used in or with equipment, machinery and the like. The system may be integrated with a filter device and used, for example, to characterize such fluids and to permit a determination of when to make oil or other fluid changes due to a change in the quality of the oil or fluid.
