OIL TEST CENTRE

Oil Test Centre FG-K1-100-KW

The Oil Test Centre is a suite of electronic oil analysis testing equipment designed for use in a very harsh industrial environment. It has been independently correlated against laboratory test procedures and is approved by the Joint Oil Analysis Program.

The Oil Test Centre consists of an electronic console with oil test cells for Insolubles, Total Base Number (TBN), Total Acid Number (TAN) and Water in Oil. Configurations are available with either a Heated Viscometer or Unheated Viscometer. Test equipment is supplied in either a rugged metal case, or a fully portable, samsonite case.

Features

Joint Oil Analysis Program Approval. Used for On-Ship Lube Oil Analysis Programs in UK Navy, US Navy (LANT fleet PAC fleet, MSC), Spanish Navy, Australian Navy, French Navy, Brunei Navy, Italian Navy

Data can be easily downloaded to your PC for accurate and sophisticated analysis of trends and readings.

A self contained suite of equipment, purpose designed for reliable and accurate oil condition monitoring.

Housed in its own robust metal case - designed for use in harsh environments. Very easy to clean and store.

Easy and quick to use - suitable for non-technical personnel. Comes complete with a comprehensive instruction manual and training CD.

Complements the Kittiwake range of sampling equipment. Replacement reagents or additional test equipment easily available and can be shipped at short notice.

Console to PC Data link

A simple piece of software is available with the Oil Test Centre console that allows the data to be downloaded from the console to a PC in comma delimited text format which can be read by standard spreadsheet and data base applications, such as Microsoft Excel and Access.

The downloaded data can be manipulated in any format required, such as lists, graphs or charts for sophisticated analysis of oil trends.

Recommended Configurations

The Oil Test Centre is available with various options covering tests for diesel and gas engines, turbines, hydraulics and gear oils. The equipment supplied can be tailored to your requirements, with configurations are available including the Heated Viscometer. Two ranges of the electronic Water in Oil test are available, as are two different Total Acid Number (TAN) ranges (see chart below for details).

The Oil Test Centre is supplied as standard in a NATO approved, robust metal case. However, portable cases are also available - simply enquire for details.

OIL TEST KITS

Oil Test Kits - Identify and Resolve Lubrication Problems

Kittiwake's range of standard and customised oil test kits are designed to provide fast, accurate and consistent analytical information about fuel and lubricant condition.

The ability to test on-site at the point of use enables engineers and facilities managers to conduct sample screening quickly and easily, detecting out-of-spec lubricants and identifying potential problems, before they become critical.

The following types of kit are available:

Kittiwake DIGI Oil Tests

Mid range kits with multiple test parameters, housed in a single engineers case. DIGI Tests are available for Water in Oil , TBN , or Viscosity. A DIGI Biodiesel Test Kit is also available.

DIGI test kits may also contain ECON tests for Water in Oil , Salt , TBN , Viscosity , Insolubles or TAN for testing your lubricants on site.

Kittiwake ECON Oil Tests

The ECON test kit range provides single parameter testing at an economic price. ECON tests are available for Water in Oil , Salt , TBN , Viscosity , Insolubles or TAN

In addition, Kittiwake also supplies stand alone oil testing kits, such as the Hydraulic Particles Test Kit for analysing oil in the field.

Replacement Reagent Packs are also available for all Kittiwake Oil Test Kits.
