Paul Swan, Technical Manager, APAC at ALS Tribology, and Larry Tucker, Director of Norms and Standards at Metrohm USA, discuss vital aspects of oil and condition monitoring, and the importance of antioxidants in tribology. They give an overview of different ASTM methods and present voltammetry as a fast, easy, and robust technique for oil analysis.
Monitoring antioxidants in lubricants with voltammetry
Monitoring the remaining antioxidant content in in-service lubricants is essential for maximizing equipment uptime and minimizing operational and maintenance costs. Voltammetry offers a rapid and reliable method for assessing antioxidant levels in industrial lubricants.
Metrohm's solution for this analysis is the 884 Professional VA, a versatile and modular voltammetry system specifically designed for routine laboratory use.
