I wanted to address this separately.
The races and cages of the ceramic IMSR are still ferromagnetic and will trigger an IMS Alert. We have carried out this specific testing all through 2011.
BUT in applications where the IMSR is employed the IMSG is more useful in alerting the driver of the other ferromagnetic wear metals within the engine.
