Total Acid Number (TAN) Electronic Test
FG-K25196-KW
Testing for TAN is essential to maintain and protect your equipment, preventing damage in advance. A rise in TAN is indicative of oil oxidation due to time and/or operating temperature. Trend as well as absolute values should be used to monitor TAN levels.
The Electronic TAN test is available as a stand-alone kit, or as part of a comprehensive suite of electronic equipment including cells to test for Water, TBN and Insolubles, which are included in the Oil Test Centre and Power Plant Laboratory. The TAN Cell works in conjunction with a highly accurate electronic console and optional software allowing the data to be downloaded from the console to a PC.
The requirement for on-line machinery and oil condition monitoring is becoming evermore apparent as maintenance costs increase and production capacity and equipment performance is maximised.
While temperature, pressure and vibration sensors all have their part to play in a condition monitoring package, early detection of changes in oil and lubricant condition and regular, consistent monitoring of wear metal debris in rotating plant provide greater insight into the actual condition of vital machinery and equipment.
Kittiwake have developed a range of innovative and practical on-line sensors for wear metal debris and oil condition detection and monitoring.
The ANALEXrs range is designed to provide plant engineers and maintenance managers with real time, continuously monitored testing and analysis data for critical plant and equipment.
Suitable for use with slow, medium and high speed diesel engines, gas turbines, gearboxes, compressors, generators, vehicles and other oil filled plant, these sensors help to increase productivity, reduce costs and improve profitability.
