Elemental Analysis by ICP

Elemental Analysis by ICP (inductively-coupled plasma) detects up to 24 metals, measuring less than 5µ in size, that can be present in used oil due to wear, contamination or additives. Wear Metals include iron, chromium, nickel, aluminum, copper, lead, tin, cadmium, silver, titanium and vanadium. Contaminant Metals include silicon, sodium, and potassium. Multi-Source Metals include molybdenum, antimony, manganese, and lithium. Additive Metals include boron magnesium, calcium, barium, phosphorous and zinc. Elemental Analysis is instrumental in determining the type and severity of wear occurring within a unit.

Standard Test Method Used: ASTM D5185

Reporting Measurement: ppm

Amount of Sample Needed: 2 mL

Test Limitation: Elemental Analysis by ICP will not detect particles greater than 10µm in size.
