Oil dispersancy for OCM

Unlike measuring soot concentration and oil contamination where numerous options exist, measuring dispersancy performance is a real challenge to the oil condition monitoring analyst.

AD Systems offers the unique DT100DL Dispersancy Tester that automatically and simultaneously provides information on oil dispersancy along with contamination index. The DT100DL has approved ASTM D7899 test method and is an integral part of Oil Condition Monitoring Programs for in-service lubricants.

Equipped with high resolution digital camera, the DT100DL takes images of the oil spot and the built-in software analyses it and reports in just a few seconds quality parameters of the oil: Merit of Dispersancy (MD), Contamination Index (IC) and combined performance rating (DP).

Very easy to operate, the DT100 DL offers enhanced features for documenting, reporting and electronic archiving. Both colour image (identical to what the human eye sees) and black and white image of oil spot are stored with ‘stamped’ sample ID. Versatile communication protocol is configurable for the specific requirements of each laboratory.

This dispersancy tester helps OCM experts to monitor the health of lubricant oil in service and alert when oil degradation starts to compromise the engine durability.
