Test Strips for Metalworking Fluid and Process Monitoring
Test strips provide a quick way to check selected parameters of metalworking fluids, process fluids and make-up water during everyday operation. Depending on the test, pH, water hardness and concentrations of nitrite, nitrate, cobalt or copper can be monitored directly on site.
Quick Tests for Metalworking Fluids and Process Fluids
Regular monitoring of relevant fluid parameters is an important part of structured metalworking fluid management. Test strips allow straightforward measurements directly at machines, central systems or mixing tanks, making them practical tools for routine checks during operation.
Different parameters can be determined depending on the selected test. These include pH and total water hardness as well as concentrations of nitrite, nitrate, cobalt or copper. This provides practical testing options for different monitoring requirements involving metalworking fluids, process fluids and make-up water.
Practical On-Site Fluid Monitoring
Test strips are designed for straightforward application and rapid visual evaluation. Measuring ranges vary according to the parameter being tested, so the appropriate test should be selected for the fluid and monitoring task concerned.
Additional solutions are available for determining the concentration of water-miscible metalworking fluids. Together with refractometers, mixing equipment and other measuring devices, quick tests provide practical tools for the routine monitoring and maintenance of metalworking fluid systems.
