Spectro Scientific has introduced the MiniLab 53 on-site oil analysis system. The product was designed for use by industrial plant personnel, the MiniLab 53 combines multiple tests in one unit to monitor lubricant chemistry, contamination and machinery wear.
According to the compnay, the MiniLab 53 is a practical solution that eliminates the wait and costs associated with sending samples to an off-site testing facility. The system provides machine wear data and trend analyses, enabling users to make immediate, condition-based decisions to reduce unexpected downtime and eliminate potential machine failures.
In analyzing fluid chemistry, the FluidScan IR technology measures Total Acid Number (TAN), Total Base Number (TBN), soot, oxidation, nitration and sulfation. The FluidScan delivers comprehensive water measurement capability (patent pending) in both dissolved and free water of the oil sample, offering a practical replacement to Karl Fischer analysis. The MiniLab 53 also provides high accuracy 40C kinematic viscosity measurements. The removable viscometer and handheld IR spectrometer enable complete portable oil condition monitoring.
