Matrix Portable Oil Patch Test Kit – Rapid, Reliable Oil Contamination Analysis

The Matrix Portable Oil Patch Test Kit is an indispensable tool for identifying and monitoring the contamination levels in oils such as hydraulic, lube, and turbine oils. This all-in-one kit enables instant visual analysis using a 100X microscope, making it easy to detect a wide range of contaminants—including metals, fibres, silica, plastics, and more—both before and after oil filtration.

  1. Sample Collection:
    A 100 ml oil sample is collected for each test.
  1. Filtration:
    • A 100 mm diameter 0.5‑micron patch membrane is placed under the fluid funnel assembly.
    • The 100‑ml oil sample is poured into the funnel, which is connected to the oil-free vacuum pump.
    • The pump draws the sample through the membrane, capturing contaminants on its surface.
  1. Cleaning the System:
    • After filtration, use an appropriate solvent to wash away any residual fluid from the funnel.
    • The patch membrane, now laden with contaminants, is removed and prepared for inspection.
  1. Visual Inspection:
    • The membrane is examined under a 100X microscope.
    • The captured particle density—the overall contamination—is visually compared with the supplied charts to quantify contaminants (mg/100 ml or dirt levels).
  • Accurate Contamination Measurement:
    Provides a clear visual estimation of suspended contaminants, essential for determining ISO fluid cleanliness classes.
  • Prevention of Equipment Damage:
    By verifying oil cleanliness, the tool helps prevent premature wear of machine components and extends the life of critical machinery.
  • Time and Cost Efficiency:
    Portable and easy to assemble, it reduces downtime and maintenance costs by facilitating immediate on-site analysis.
  • Versatile and Adaptable:
    Suitable for testing various types of industrial oils and ensuring quality control both before and after oil filtering.
  • Industrial Hydraulic Systems:
    For frequent monitoring to prevent contamination-induced equipment damage.
  • Lubrication and Turbine Oils:
    Ensuring optimal performance and longevity of the machinery.
  • Quality Control in Filtration Systems:
    Applicable both pre- and post-filtration to continuously verify oil cleanliness.

The Matrix Portable Oil Patch Test Kit delivers a reliable, easy-to-use solution for monitoring oil quality, helping maintenance professionals and engineers ensure that their systems run efficiently with minimal contamination risks.
