Expanded Performance Testing Program (PTP)

24 Apr, 2009

Published over 17 years ago. See the latest and most current information on Analytical instrumentation.

VHG’s (USA) Performance Testing Program (PTP) has been expanded to include the analysis of sulphur in #2 diesel fuel, iso-octane or mineral oil and the analysis of sulphur and metals in lube oil. 

Previously the PTP was available for the analysis of wear metals, viscosity and particle count.   This one-of-a-kind program was designed to allow analytical chemists a method of monitoring their analytical performance as measured against Certified Reference Materials (CRMs). Chemists analyse the sample, enter their results on-line and receive instant feedback on the values submitted.   The PTP allows chemists to quickly and easily check the performance of their calibrations externally on a routine basis.
