Measuring cooling lubricants

Measure hazardous cooling lubricants with SG5200 and SG100ex measuring devices

Our SG5200 or SG5100ex samplers can be used to check for possible hazards caused by lubricants. These measuring devices for measuring cooling lubricants are coupled with the GGP sampling system and can, for example, detect oil aerosols and measure cooling lubricants.
If you have any questions about measuring hazardous cooling lubricants or the measuring devices, our staff will be happy to help.

  • Lubrication: Reduction of friction between tool and workpiece
