VISATRON Oil Mist Detectors

PB Asher is the UK-authorised distributor for VISATRON oil mist detectors, supplying genuine OEM units, sensors and spare parts for marine and industrial diesel and dual-fuel engines.

About VISATRON

VISATRON is the oil mist detector trusted to protect large diesel and dual-fuel engines against crankcase explosion. The system has been fitted to engines from some of the world’s leading manufacturers for decades, with tens of thousands in service worldwide.

It monitors the crankcase continuously for oil mist and raises the alarm early, before a build-up becomes dangerous. On engines from 2 MW upward, that protection is a core safety requirement.

PB Asher is the only company in the UK authorised to distribute VISATRON. We supply genuine units, sensors, central units and spare parts, backed by engineers who work on marine and industrial engines every day.

"PB Asher performed the main engine overhaul on one of my ships. They work very professional and leave everything cleaner behind than they’ve found it. Also the running in protocols are well adhered to. Overall a very pleasant company to work with due to the short lines and their flexibility."

"Volvo Penta injectors were reconditioned in 24 hours. Paul was incredibly helpful in talking me through what was done and why - and all done at a very reasonable price. Highly recommend."
