The stand-alone RDE-OES spectrometer
eraoil is the first and most advanced stand-alone rotating disc electrode spectrometer analyzing wear metals, additives, and contaminants in all kinds of operating liquids, like lubricating oils, fuels, coolants, process water, etc. Up to 32 elements are measured fully automatically within 30 seconds. eraoil’s high-end CMOS detector in combination with the automatic background correction allow for a sub-ppm detection limit (LOD) for most elements.
Smallest footprint with built-in PC
eraoil’s unique stand-alone design offers a rugged all-in-one package for operation even in the smallest on-site testing labs. It comes with a built-in 10” color touchscreen and a PC. Even an electrode sharpener and an automatic ventilation system are integrated into the eraoil. Still, it is the RDE-OES analyzer with the smallest footprint on the market. eraoil is very easy to use even for untrained operators. The automated measuring procedure follows simple steps and is therefore perfect for on-site inspection: Just fill the sample cup, close the door, and push the start button. The elemental concentration is available immediately.
