Zusammenfassung:A gas turbine engine, a method, and a system for detecting oil debris are provided. The gas turbine engine includes an oil debris monitor sensor (240) configured to detect oil debris in an oil flow, and generate a sensor signal (241) based on the detected oil debris, a controller (220) configured to control the oil flow through the oil debris monitor sensor using a plurality of valves, and a signal processor (230) configured to receive the sensor signal (241) from the oil debris monitor (240) and to receive a valve system configuration (221) from the controller (220), the signal processor (230) further configured to generate a health indicator based on the sensor signal (241) and valve configuration.
