Maximize Laboratory Efficiency with Fully Automated Oil Analysis

In the petrochemical industry, the determination of Total Acid Number (TAN) and Total Base Number (TBN) is critical for assessing the quality and degradation of mineral oils. The high-performance Automated TAN/TBN Analysis System for mineral oil (MATi 02) is a PC-controlled solution designed to transform how laboratories handle these essential tests. By replacing manual titration with robotic precision, this system ensures that your laboratory meets the rigorous demands of high-throughput testing while maintaining strict compliance with ASTM standards.

This system is not merely a titrator; it is a complete workstation. Capable of handling significant sample volumes without human intervention, the comprehensive Automated TAN/TBN Analysis System MATi 02 allows technicians to focus on data interpretation rather than repetitive tasks. Whether you are analyzing fresh lubricants or used oils, this platform delivers the consistency required for critical quality control decisions.

Solving Common Petrochemical Testing Challenges

Manual titration involves handling hazardous solvents and is prone to operator variability. Do you struggle with backlog due to slow testing processes or inconsistent results between technicians? The advanced Automated TAN/TBN Analysis System platform addresses these specific laboratory pain points.

1. Eliminate Solvent Exposure: TAN/TBN testing requires harsh solvents. This automated system handles dosing, rinsing, and aspiration, significantly reducing operator exposure to dangerous chemicals.

2. Increase Throughput: Manual testing is a bottleneck. With the ability to process up to 59 samples in a single series, this system runs unattended, allowing for overnight operation and maximum productivity.

3. Ensure Regulatory Compliance: Deviating from standards risks credibility. This system is pre-configured to adhere strictly to ASTM D664 and D2896, ensuring your results are audit-ready every time.

4. Prevent Data Errors: Manual transcription is risky. Integrated with OMNIS software, the system captures and stores data automatically, ensuring complete traceability.
