Oil analyzer ERASPEC OIL

fuellubricantmonitoring

The Latest Trend in Oil Condition Monitoring ERASPEC OIL is a portable stand-alone infrared analyzer for high-speed lubricant oil analysis and condition monitoring in full compliance with ASTM, DIN and JOAP methods. Its patented interferometer design delivers laboratory-grade results directly on site. ERASPEC OIL measures contaminants, degradation products, additive depletion as well as calculated properties like TAN, TBN, and viscosity within seconds. Lubricant Analysis with IR Spectroscopy Lubricant oils exhibit various chemical changes during their life time. This starts by simple changes such a fuel dilution of the fuel used or the uptake of soot (ASTM E2412) from the combustion. Numerous chemical reactions with combustion products lead to oxidation (ASTM D7414), nitration (ASTM D7624) or sulfation (ASTM D7415) of the lubricant and can be summarized as degradation products. To enable cycle times known from modern lubricants a wide variety of additives are added. These additives are used up during operation. All of them can be readily monitored by IR spectroscopy.
