Designed to test mineral, alkylbenzene and polyolester oils
 
 
 

Builds Customer Confidence

    Show the test results of the acid test kit to customers, or perform the test in their presence. In this way they realize you are using the most up-to-date scientific method for system maintenance.

Showing customers the test results will also help convince them to spend the money necessary to do a proper cleanup job. Customers who are thoroughly confident of your abilities will be more interested in setting up preventative maintenance programs.
 
 
 

Accurate and Reliable

    A simple scientific principle is used to precisely measure the amount of acid in an oil sample taken from a contaminated system. The test procedure has been proven by extensive field experience.
 
 
 

Convenient

    Both the TA-1 and AK-3 are convenient to use. The TA-1 has three pre-measured solutions supplied in bottles with screw caps for easy handling. The AK-3 has all solutions and bottles supplied in a small fitted case. Either kit may be used on the job site, or an oil sample can be saved and tested in the presence of the equipment owner.
 
 
 

Oil Sample Used for Test

    Since oil is the scavenger, it gives the best indication of acid in the system. Less than an ounce of oil is required.
 
 
 

Quick to Use

    Once the oil sample is obtained ... it will take only minutes to perform the test. Simply mix solutions and oil to be tested. Shake, and the resulting colour tells the complete story.
 
 
 

Cost

    The cost of the test is very inexpensive, regardless of which kit is used. The TA-1 Kit is more convenient, but for repeated testing the AK-3 is less costly.
 
 
  Both the TA-1 and AK-3 Kits are normally used on a "pass or fail" basis. If the user desires an indication of the relative amount of acid in the oil, then the AK-3 Kit should be selected.
