Looking for an easy and economical method for compliant analysis of additives in lubricating oils? Epsilon 1 is the ideal analytical solution. The system is pre-calibrated in the factory and is an out-of the-box solution with guaranteed performance in compliance with ASTM D6481. This method describes the testing for phosphorus, sulfur, calcium and zinc in unused lubricating oil by XRF.
Epsilon 1 is a star-performing benchtop XRF instrument for the analysis of phosphorus, sulfur, calcium and zinc in unused lubricating oil in compliance with the latest ASTM D6481 test method. The repeatability for all four additives is well within the limits set by D6481.
Maximum sensitivity
The thin window Ag anode X-ray tube, designed and manufactured by Malvern Panalytical, ensures high quality and sensitivity. The selection of Ag as anode material is ideal for the accurate quantification of phosphorus and sulfur without interference of possible line overlaps in the XRF spectrum, leading to more reliable results. The 50 kV X-ray tube and generator is ideal for exciting higher-energy elements like zinc, resulting in faster analysis times.
Maximum sensitivity
Self-contained system
A built-in computer running Microsoft Windows 7 with powerful CPU and 120 GB hard drive ensures flexibility to store and handle thousands of results. The high-resolution, 10.4” LCD touch screen is ideal for easy walk-up operation.
