Abstract
A fluid circuit monitoring system for monitoring a fluid circuit includes a pressure sensor for sensing a pressure of fluid flowing in the fluid circuit and an interface member fluidly communicating the fluid circuit to the pressure sensor. The fluid circuit monitoring system may be used to monitor a pressure or temperature differential between an inlet and outlet of the fluid circuit and determine a fluid flow rate of the fluid circuit. The pressure differential, temperature differential, or fluid flow rate can be logged and used to determine if preventative maintenance should be performed on the fluid circuit.
