Description

The Zematra TBN Test Kit is an essential tool for monitoring the alkalinity levels of engine lubricating oils, ensuring they can effectively neutralize acidic by-products formed during fuel combustion. A decline in TBN levels indicates the depletion of neutralizing agents, increasing the risk of engine wear, corrosion, and reduced lubrication efficiency.

This TBN testing kit operates using the Calcium Hydride Pressure Test Vessel Method, a proven technique for precise, repeatable, and reliable measurement of TBN values. The reaction between the TBN test solution and the oil sample generates hydrogen gas, resulting in a measurable pressure increase within the sealed reaction vessel. The pressure change is directly proportional to the oil’s alkalinity level, providing immediate and accurate results.

Designed for quick, user-friendly operation, the Zematra TBN Test Kit is perfect for marine vessels, industrial machinery, power generation systems, and transportation fleets. By ensuring the oil’s TBN remains within acceptable limits, this kit helps prolong engine life, prevent corrosion, and reduce maintenance costs.
