ANALEX pqF Metal Particle Debris Analysis Monitor

ANALEX pqFProduct Code: FG-K16000-KW

The ANALEX pqF Metal Particle Debris Analysis Monitor detects metal particles in the oil or grease samples taken from lubricated machinery. Uniquely it reports in PQ Index in an identical manner to more sophisticated laboratory based instruments used in many laboratories world-wide (e.g. reported by Caterpillar S.O.S. UOA programme). An adaption of ANALEX PQ technology, the pqF is ruggedised for field applications. This unit is ideal for testing and analysing oil samples on-site or in remote locations where full laboratory analysis is not possible. Features include: 

  • Suitable for testing On-Site in remote locations.
  • All data stored is stored in the internal memory for later analysis and download.
  • Direct reading in PQ Index, automatic calibration between measurements. 

Analex Ferrous Wear Debris Monitors are constructed using sophisticated magnetometers using ANALEX PQ technology adapted for field applications. A full sample bottle is inverted and placed directly on the sensor. The reading is filtered and displayed as a PQ Index. Samples may be presented for analysis in a variety of media and automatic recalibration is performed between each sample measurement. Data from each test is stored in the internal memory, which may then be transferred to a database on a host PC via an RS232 interface.  (see also the ExxonMobil Mobilguard Scrapedown Analyser derived from this design.)
