The Economy Total Iron Kit from Parker Kittiwake allows ship owners and operators to obtain an accurate picture of the level of total Iron present in their used cylinder oil. The kit provides accurate results on-board in less than seventy five minutes, negating the need to send samples to a laboratory to be analysed.
The kit provides a total iron figure, providing users with an accurate measure of the parts per million (PPM) value of the total iron content in the used scrape down oil. Using a colour-matching test, the Parker Kittiwake Total Iron Kit alters the colour of an oil sample, indicating the concentration of iron compounds. The resulting colour is matched to a reference colour chart that provides a measurement of the total iron present in the sample.
