Rotroil Oil Analyser
ROTROIL is the latest generation and most advanced version of the traditional Rotrode Emission Spectrometer. Thanks to the new compact design it is a very robust and reliable unit, and can safely be moved and transported to different locations where the analysis is to be made.
The new electronic control unit based on CCD detectors improves the ease and shortens the standard procedure to set up the unit and it allows simple future upgrade possibility with new elements and programs. The optical chamber of 500 mm focal length based on Paschen-Runge mounting represents the best solution to obtain the better resolution and maximum intensity in order to have the best performances achievable with Rotating Disc Electrode Spectrometry.
The ROTROIL spectrometer is complaint with the ASTM D6595-00 Standard Test Method for determination of Wear Metals and Contaminants in used lubricating oils or used hydraulical fluids by Rotating Disc Electrode Atomic Emission Spectrometery. The determination of debris in used oil is a key diagnostic method practiced in machine condition monitoring programs. The presence or increase in concentration of specific wear metals can be indicative of the early stages of wear if there are baseline concentration data for comparison. A marked increase in contaminant elements can be indicative of foreign materials in the lubricants, such as anti-freeze or sand, which may lead to wear or lubricant degradation. The test method identifies the metals and their concentration so that trends relative to time or distance can be established and corrective action can be taken prior to more serious or catastrophic failure.
Typical application field varies from Military Forces, Airlines, Railways, Marine Fleets, Public and Private transportation companies, Mines, Refineries, Power Plants, Oil Plants, Oil recycler, Manufacturing plants, Commercial laboratories, Motor Racing Team and whenever there is the needs for elemental analysis of of lubricating oils, transmission fluids, fuels, hydraulic fluids and greases for wear metals, contaminants, additives and corrosive impurities for preventive maintenance and reducing cost.
