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.
