Testing of in-service lubricants for their remaining antioxidant content is critical for prolonging the uptime of capital equipment as well as reducing running costs and repair expenses. Nevertheless, it is often not part of oil monitoring programs because the analysis is too time-consuming and expensive to perform.

Voltammetry is a fast and established method for testing the remaining antioxidant content in industrial lubricants. By using a modern voltammetric measuring technique and an advanced evaluation algorithm, manual curve evaluation is made obsolete, saving time and improving the repeatability and reproducibility of results.
