OIL SAMPLE CONDITIONER
Cannon Instrument's Thermoelectric Sample Condi-
tioner (TESC) System is designed to automate the oil
conditioning and testing process according to ASTM
D2983. Incorporating a Brookfi eld DV2T digital viscom-
eter and thermoelectrically controlled sample chamber,
the TESC System provides preheating, room tempera-
ture stabilization, cooling of the sample to the test tem-
perature, and testing of the conditioned sample's fi nal
viscosity. Thermal test history and fi nal viscosity mea-
surements are recorded at multiple spindle speeds and
accessible for export into various software programs
upon completion.

OIL VIEWING DEVICE
The Maxton MaxView oil viewing device is a convenient
tool for sampling and evaluating hydraulic fl uid for con-
taminants, oxidation levels and general oil condition. It
allows ferrous metals, dirt and debris in oil to be dis-
covered in seconds. Simply dip the collection end to the
bottom of the tank, compress the spring action at the
tip to allow oil to fl ow into the viewing area and pull out
the oil sample. The device assembles quickly by thread-
ing the three pieces together.

VEGETABLE-BASED STRAIGHT OILS
QualiChem's new Eqo-Max series oils are a family of
low-viscosity vegetable-based straight oils for severe
cutting and grinding applications on stainless steels,
titanium and other alloys. The technology in the oils
is derived from carefully selected base stocks to pro-
vide optimized viscosity, lubricity, oxidative stability
and high-pressure performance. The premium oils
are formulated to eliminate foaming when running in
high-pressure coolant delivery systems at 1,000 pounds
per square inch or higher.

OIL TEST GAUGE
The Rapid Oil Test Gauge from Geserco is a new digital
oil tester for quickly determining water in oil and base
number values up to 100. It enables measurements to be
taken within three minutes and incorporates a large digi-
tal display that gives step-by-step operating instructions
and test results. Other features include immediate evalu-
ation of test results, an audible alarm for excess water in
oil and low base number, and automatic time-stamping
of results. The device also comes with built-in memory
for recording up to 90 test results.
