Abstract:

The performance characteristics of the LASERNET FINES optical oil debris monitor are described. This monitor provides on site measurements of particle size distributions and shape characteristics in lubricating, hydraulic and other fluids. It will provide information on mechanical wear of oil wetted machinery components and contamination in hydraulic systems. The features and capabilities of a portable instrument based on LASERNET FINES are described.
