ERASPEC OIL FTIR spectrometer for lubricating oil condition monitoring

Introducing the ERASPEC OIL: advanced FTIR analysis for in-service lubricant monitoring

The ERASPEC OIL is a high-precision FTIR spectrometer specifically engineered for comprehensive analysis of oils. This powerful device is essential for monitoring oil conditions in industrial applications, ensuring equipment reliability, and optimizing maintenance schedules. The ERASPEC OIL utilizes mid-infrared spectrometry to measure key oil degradation parameters, including oxidation, nitration, and soot levels, with unmatched accuracy. Designed to adhere to global standards such as ASTM, JOAP, and DIN, it guarantees reliable and consistent results crucial for oil condition monitoring.

Fast + Fully automated

One minute.
A full oil picture.

This device is incredibly user-friendly and fully automated, with a quick start-up time and no need for sample preparation.

Within about a minute, the device can analyze a sample as small as 10 mL, providing vital information directly on its intuitive touchscreen interface. The rugged, portable design, 29 × 35 × 34 cm (11.4 × 13.8 × 13.4 in) and light weight of 9.7 kg (21.4 lb), ensures that the ERASPEC OIL is perfect for both lab-based analysis and field applications, making it an ideal solution for on-site oil monitoring in demanding industrial environments.


10 mL is all it takes.

Vital information is delivered directly on the intuitive touchscreen interface, in 60 to 120 seconds depending on the viscosity of the sample.

Designed for both settings

  • Quick start-up time
  • No sample preparation
  • Lab-based analysis
  • Field applications

Comprehensive oil analysis

Track degradation.
Act before downtime.

The ERASPEC OIL is unique due to its comprehensive oil analysis. There are certain parameters like TAN, TBN, nitration, oxidation, water content, and soot that are measured in this equipment and crucial for general oil analysis.

It supports trending analysis and spectral subtraction for advanced oil condition monitoring, making it an invaluable tool for predicting equipment maintenance needs and avoiding costly downtime. The data management system of this unit is capable of seamless integration into existing workflows, with options for data storage in the equipment, USB transfer, RS232 interfaces, direct LIMS connectivity via LAN, and direct report printing.
