C-Lube: On-Line Oil Consumption Measurement
- On-line measurement of oil consumption in an operating engine.
- Novel tracer that can be adjusted to be representative of the distillation interval.
- Short half-life means no waste material.
- High sensitivity allows monitoring of transient operating phases.
- More Info
Post-Treatment Devices (DPFs & Catalysts)
- Measurement of catalyst poisoning or DPF clogging in real-time
- No dismantling, measurement through canning
- Each tracer representative of particular element
- High sensitivity, <0.1 mg trapped material
- No change in oil properties
- 3D mapping of ash deposition (off-line)

TC-Lube: External Lubrication System for Turbochargers
- To lubricate a TC independently from the engine. The TC can be lubricated with different formulation,
at a different press/temp.
- To study oil consumption issuing from the TC only. Couple to C-Lube for OC issuing from the
compressor and/or turbine.
- To study TC bearing wear. Couple to the SLA equipment for on-line monitoring of bearing wear.
Dust or diluted oil can also be added into the TC lubrication circuit to study their impact on bearing
wear, without damaging the engine.
- To investigate lubrication limits. Combination of TC-Lube and on-line wear measurements make
it possible to determine the minimal TC oil pressure needed at various operating conditions.
