System

Symptom
Plant Derate / High Lube Oil Temp
Diagnosis & fix steps
LOGIC: Crusher Lubrication Oil Temperature Sensor Circuit High.
ACTION: Disconnect PT100/temperature sensor on lube reservoir. Measure thermistor resistance; inspect harness routing near the hydraulic cooler fan shroud for pinched wiring.
Red Seal field insights
Viscosity Control: High oil temp drops lubrication film strength; the controller cuts the vibrating feeder until the fan lowers oil temperature back to operating limits.
