Water in lubricating or fuel oil can enter from many sources including condensation, leakage and malfunction of oil treatment systems. Water in oil will cause corrosion, cavitation and instability of additive packages and encourage the growth of microbes.
Testing for water in oil is essential to maintain and protect your equipment, preventing damage in advance. Kittiwake supply various types of test for water in oil, depending on your requirements. Equipment includes the following:
Water in Oil Electronic Cell FG-K25195-KW
The Water in Oil Cell works in conjunction with a highly accurate electronic console, which is available with optional software that allows the data to be downloaded from the console to a PC in comma delimited text format. This means that the data stream is separated by commas and is in a standard ASCII format that is readable by standard spreadsheet and data base applications, such as Microsoft Excel and Access.
The Water in Oil test is available as a stand-alone kit, or as part of a comprehensive suite of electronic equipment including cells to test for TBN, TAN and Insolubles, which are included in the Oil Test Centre. and Power Plant Laboratory.
