The "FUEL AND LUBE OIL TEST CABINET" is a portable laboratory specifically designed for on-site condition monitoring of fuel, lube and hydraulic oil. The Cabinet contains all necessary test equipment for regular measurement of crucial parameters of fuels, lube and hydraulic oil in the engines systems and enables direct assessment of test results. Any occurring changes in the oil condition are immediately observable, and the respective adequate measures regarding maintenance and services can be taken at the exact time when it is necessary.

The "FUEL AND LUBE OIL TEST CABINET" includes 8 different tests: water-in-oil, base number (BN), go/ no go oil viscosity comparison, determination of density and viscosity value based on the falling ball principle, soot and salt water contamination as well as stability and /or compatibility of fuel oils.

The content of water in oil and base number (BN) is measured by means of the test device "TWIN CHECK 4.0" in two identical test procedures. The concentration of water in oil can be determined in the range from 0 – 1.0 vol. % H₂O and the BN value can be measured from 0 to 150 BN. The test results are directly available on the digital display of the "TWIN CHECK 4.0" unit. 

Viscosity test of the used oil sample in comparison to the fresh oil sample is determined with the help of the "VISCOSITY COMPARATOR". The test result is immediately visually observable in the form of a go/no go answer.  

The test device "VISCO DENS PLUS" enables determination of two oil parameters: viscosity and density in a single test procedure. Density of the heated oil sample at 50˚C is defined with the help of hydrometer. The measured value is automatically converted to standard temperature of 15˚C. The method for measuring viscosity is based on the falling ball principle in the heated oil sample.  

The degree of soot concentration in the oil sample is determined by means of the "SPOT CHECK" test. 

The "SALT/ FRESH WATER CHECK" helps to provide immediate confirmation whether the water-in-oil contains any salt or not. 

The test device "COMPATIBILITY CHECK" has been designed for regular monitoring of the fuel oil quality delivered on board a vessel. Easy and quick tests directly after delivery enable determination of stability and/or compatibility of fuel oil and consequently prevention of the blockage of filters and pipes of the engine system.  

The "FUEL AND LUBE OIL TEST CABINET" is of rugged design and compact size and can be easily mounted to a wall. The Cabinet has a built-in lightning and a folding test desk to perform oil and bunker fuel testing easily and quickly.
