Key Features

ISO
CompliantFully compliant with ISO 4402 and ISO 11171, providing both standard method and refined methodology

Adaptable AutosamplingAdaptable Autosampling: The autosampling system can always be adapted to specific customer requirements, offering a range of flexible options including the Liquids Auto Sampler

All Fluid
TypesAll Fluid Types: Analyzes hydraulic oils, insulation and turbine oils, gear and motor oils, water based hydraulic fluids, organic fluids and solvents, fluids with high vapor pressure, and pharmaceutical fluids such as infusion solutions, water and parenterals

QuickQuick: Set up a sample, select a test mode, and start. The sample is cooled at the steepest possible rate without affecting the formation and growth of wax crystals, a critical factor in pour point and cloud point determination, giving a test cycle typically one third to one half that of conventional tilting methods

Straightforward OperationStraightforward Operation: Easy operation with the sample stage at the front for convenient sample handling

Fully compliant with ISO 4402, ISO 4406, ISO 11171 the PAMAS AS3 automated particle counter and auto-sampler system analyses high quantities of samples. This new PAMAS particle counter is designed to provide sample analysis of several hundred samples per day, with unattended operation. The auto-sampler system offers a multitude of features regarding sample preparation, sample handling, flushing and sample dilution.
The PAMAS AS3 auto-sampling system can always be adapted to specific customer requirements. (e.g. customized tray size.)
