The Schaller Automation Visatron VN115/87 Plus Connection Box (Part No. 11652) is a core electrical interface component within the Visatron VN115/87 Plus oil mist detection system. Designed to work in conjunction with the dedicated measuring head (Art. No. 11651), this connection box provides the wiring and signal termination point that links the sensing elements to the wider alarm and monitoring network. Oil mist detectors are critical safety equipment aboard vessels with diesel engines, providing early warning of crankcase conditions that could otherwise lead to catastrophic failure. Correct installation and maintenance of every system component, including the connection box, is essential to ensure reliable, continuous protection.
Key Features
✓ Functions as the dedicated connection box for the Schaller Automation Visatron VN115/87 Plus oil mist detection system, providing secure signal and power interfacing.
✓ Designed for use with the Visatron VN115/87 Plus measuring head operating at a negative pressure setting of 60 mm WC — subject to confirmation for specific installation configurations.
✓ Compatible with the Visatron VN115/87 Plus system architecture; functional testing is supported using a test plate or Schaller Automation Smoke Generator (Part No. 10353).
✓ Typical installation is within or adjacent to the engine room environment; exact mounting requirements and enclosure ratings depend on vessel configuration and should be verified against original installation drawings.
✓ As a direct OEM-referenced replacement component, this part supports like-for-like serviceability and helps maintain the integrity of the complete oil mist detection system during scheduled maintenance or repair.
Marine Applications
✓ Main propulsion diesel engine crankcase oil mist monitoring on ocean-going cargo vessels, tankers, and bulk carriers.
✓ Auxiliary engine oil mist detection systems aboard offshore support vessels, platform supply vessels, and similar workboats.
✓ Engine room safety and alarm systems on passenger ferries and RoPax vessels where continuous crankcase monitoring is mandatory.
✓ Retrofit and replacement installations on vessels already fitted with the Schaller Automation Visatron VN115/87 Plus oil mist detection system.
✓ Onboard preventive maintenance programmes where individual system components are replaced to restore full detector functionality without replacing the entire unit.
