ON-SITE OIL ANALYSIS
SYSTEM FOR INDUSTRIAL MACHINERY
Oil analysis provides early indications of equipment wear and identifies the root causes of corrosion. On-site oil analysis eliminates the wait associated with sending samples off-site and enables immediate decision making.
With three simple tests, the MiniLab 33 delivers on-site oil analysis, providing immediate actionable results, saving time and reducing costs. Highlights of this system include:
- One product, delivering lab-quality analysis outside of the lab
- Simplified workflow for the non-expert user, no chemist required
- Simplified operation, data reporting and report interpretation via the TruVu 360 Diagnostic Sets with recommended actions
