Compliancy to increasingly stringent environmental requirements, like ASTM D6481 test method, is a must for producers of lubrication oils. Measurement precision is a key requirement of ASTM D6481. Epsilon 1 from PANalytical (Netherlands) for lubricating oil analysis comes pre-calibrated and is the ideal analysis solution for phosphorus, sulphur, calcium and zinc in unused lubricating oils.
Total costs of ownership and training investments are typically less than for techniques such as AAS, ICP and wet chemical methods that additionally require a dedicated skilled operator.
A NIST traceable validation sample for additives in unused lubricating oils enables you to independently verify the pre-calibration.
