Spectro Scientific FerroCheck 2000 Series User's Guide 100-00540
FerroCheck 2000 Series User's Guide 100-00540 documents the FerroCheck 2000 Series portable ferrous metal analyzers for measuring total ferrous content in in-service lubricating oil and grease. The FerroCheck 2000 Series measures total ferrous content in parts per million (ppm) by weight, provides results in less than 30 seconds, and is intended for field service professionals and oil laboratories. The User's Guide covers operation of the battery-powered, compact instrument and its use with oil and grease samples for rapid on-site ferrous debris quantification in accordance with ASTM D8120.
Key Features:
- Document: User's Guide, Part Number 100-00540
- Method/Standard: ASTM D8120 (ferrous debris quantification)
- Test time: under 30 seconds
- Sample volume: 1.5 ml for oil; 0.75 ml for grease (grease sampling boat design requires <1 ml in some configurations)
- Limit of detection: 3 ppm; calibrated ranges include 0–2,000 ppm and 2,000–10,000 ppm (product-dependent)
- Portability: battery-powered operation (>4 hours per charge) and unit weight under 5 pounds
- Data output: automated data storage with CSV export and AMS OilView software interface
Advantages:
- Delivers rapid, on-site ferrous contamination results in under 30 seconds to support immediate maintenance decisions
- Requires very small sample volumes and no solvent or sample preparation, simplifying field testing
- Portable, lightweight, and battery-powered for convenient use in the field or laboratory
- High repeatability and low detection limit (3 ppm) for accurate monitoring of wear and ferrous contamination
