Determination of Wear Metals and Wear Debris in Petroleum Products

The analysis of wear metals and of additives in lubricating oils, and contaminants in fuels, is crucial to the proper maintenance and functioning of many types of machinery; heavy transportation & trucking, mining, aircraft, military and marine. Taking into account these rigorous requirements, Olympus Innov-X has developed the X-5000 for your elemental analysis needs. The X-5000 will provide a quick determination to ensure your lubricants and fuels are in the best possible condition prior to use. The X-5000 allows for instant analysis, providing vital information at that precise moment, and not weeks later. Wear metals such as Cu, Fe, Ni and V in engine oils, and the verification of additive elements for depletion - P, Ca, Zn - key lubrication characteristics. Routine testing identifies those small problems before they become costly failures.

The analytical performance, closed beam safety, and ease of use of traditional bench top XRF units are all captured in the X-5000. And it delivers true field portability, being packaged into an easy to carry, 22 lb. battery operated XRF with integrated PC and industrialized large touch screen.

The X-5000 sets the benchmark for performance, power and portability.

No sample preparation, just collect it and analyze - right on the spot.
