Description
PAMAS S40 – Portable Particle Counter for Oil Analysis and Condition Monitoring
PAMAS S40 is a robust and portable particle counter designed for fast and accurate analysis of hydraulic oils, lubricating oils, fuels and other industrial fluids directly in the field. The system combines laboratory-level accuracy with mobile flexibility, enabling both unpressurised sampling and online measurements in systems with pressures of up to 420 bar.
The durable ceramic piston pump ensures a constant and accurate sample flow throughout the measurement process, while the intuitive touchscreen makes the instrument easy to operate even in demanding industrial environments. With its integrated battery, built-in printer and large data storage capacity, PAMAS S40 is a complete solution for modern condition monitoring.
