OilExpress 4 Oil Condition Monitoring Systems
The OilExpress 4 Oil Condition Monitoring Systems (Figure 1) are optimized for the high-
throughput FT-IR analysis of in-service lubricant samples for additive depletion,
contamination and degradation.
Figure 1 The OilExpress 4 System
The OilExpress 4 system comprises the following key components.
•
A liquid autosampler (available with two sampling capacities), and associated labware
(injection station, sample racks and tip boxes).
•
A Spectrum Two FT-IR spectrometer, fitted with a sample shuttle and a water-resistant
flow cell.
•
A fluid control module (FCM).
For additional throughput, a second spectrometer (and associated FCM) can be incorporated
in OilExpress 4 DUO systems.
NOTE: A single-spectrometer system can be upgraded to a DUO system. Refer to
on page 141 or contact your PerkinElmer Customer Care
Representative for more information.
The system is controlled by the dedicated oil analysis software, OilExpress 4.
