The metal analysis is the heart of oil analysis. Microscopically small wear particles are detected, defined and interacting with other data conclusions regarding their emergence can be drawn. Wear metals occur as corrosion products by water or acids in the oil or as abrasive wear by friction or locally welding of rough surfaces. The wear particles found in the oil can be traced on their composition to specific machine elements and parts that are in contact with the lubricant. MetExpert-ENGINE determines early possible signs of wear and their cause. The evaluation of the wear metals with MetExpert is based on limit data, that resulted from thousands of examined samples.
Besides the analyse function of showing the measured element concentrations the MetExpert offers more options: The results of the analysis for each specific machine are saved together with other data in the database and compared with earlier measurements. As result the dynamics of wear is shown. The software is building a prognosis and maintenance recommendations on basis of the extensive statistics.

MetExpert fo wear monitoring

FIELDS OF APPLICATION:

XRF analyser MetExpert-ENGINE is used in many fields for analysis of trace metals in lubricating oils and similar materials. This applies to analysis in:

  • monitoring of wear condition of engines and machinery
  • automobile, aircraft, shipbuilding and metalworking industries
  • preventive diagnostics for railway trains
  • monitoring of truck engines and gears
  • oil industry, lubricant production
  • monitoring of turbines, wind power stations etc.

FEATURES:

  • The MS Windows based unique software of MetExpert automatically controls all functions of the spectrometer. Many thousands of measurements, including spectra, can be saved to hard disk and printed-out later or moved to another PC for further processing.
  • MetExpert devices calculate the quantities of each element using its fundamental spectral data. No external calibration standards needed.
  • MetExpert-ENGINE automatically recalculate the weight/volume of sample and quantity of the metal on filter into its concentration.
  • MetExpert-ENGINE determines early possible signs of wear and their cause.
  • The MetExpert-ENGINE software is building a prognosis and maintenance recommendations on basis of the extensive statistics.
  • MetExpert-ENGINE device allows operator to preset the list of elements to be analysed. This option gives a possibility to estimate the trace elements with increased precision.
  • MetExpert-ENGINE will be delivered with necessary equipment, start set of filters and detailed sample preparation instructions.
  • MetExpert devices have 2 independed levels of protection from X-ray irradiation, which exclude any danger for operator.
