eracount xs
The ISO 4406 laser particle counter.
eracount xs is the smallest and fastest field particle counter. At the push of a button, the laser-based analyzer measures and displays the ISO 4406 particle size channels ≥ 4 µm(c), ≥ 6 µm(c) and ≥ 14 µm(c) – all within 60 seconds using only 10 mL of sample. eracount xs counts particles in eight channels when connected to one of eralytics’ other OCM analyzers.

Xtra easy: Fast & easy particle detection
eracount xs is the analyzer of choice for fast particle measurements with lab grade precision directly in the field. Initial failures in hydraulic and lubricating oil systems lead to the early appearance of big particles. eracount xs easily detects every particle that passes the sensor. The full performance of this laser-based particle counter is achieved by operating it connected to another eralytics analyzer, like the kinematic viscometer eravisc X or the FTIR spectrometer eraspec oil.
Xtra rugged: Extremely robust all-metal device
eracount xs is an extremely robust all-metal device weighing only 3 kg. It can resist harsh environments such as extreme temperatures or any kind of vibrations. It is the perfect analyzer for the contamination detection and condition monitoring of hydraulic and lube oil systems, test rigs and parts cleaning.

Xtra accurate: Measurement according to ISO and NIST standards
eracount xs measures the cleanliness of any lubricant or petroleum product with viscosities up to 1000 cSt at 22 C° (up to ISO VG 320) over a pressure up to 2 bar. With its eight particle size channels eracount xs can detect even larger particles, offering the possibility to alert in case of abrasion or machine failure. The instrument is calibrated according to the international standard ISO 11171 and traceable to NIST standards.
