Particulate Cleanliness Testing Services

We Provide:

• On-site sampling and testing of process fluids and environment. This includes washer liquids, test station fluids, and ambient air.
• Product and component particulate cleanliness testing. This includes interior and exterior surfaces as well as parts during actuation.
• QC Test Method and Specification Development
• Expedited testing services available, as fast as one day
• Training of technicians and operators. For cleanliness testing, sampling, and protocols

IBR Labs use Specialized, Accurate Equipment for:

• Small non-actuating parts: Including washers, springs, bearings, gears, hoses, and orifices
• Actuating parts: Including valves, pumps, pistons, steering gears, and brake systems
• Large non-actuating parts: Including transmission castings, motors, and housings
• Automatic particle counting, microscopy, and gravimetric analysis

Accuracy of Results is Assured:

• Testing meets or exceeds industry standards: ISO, SAE, NAS, MIL and ASTM methods or your supplied protocol are used.
• Instruments are calibrated to NIST standards: Our instruments cover the full range of particle sizes. In liquids, and for particles rinsed from components, our instruments cover the 0.1-2500 micron range. In air, our instruments cover the 0.01-50 micron range.
• IBR is Accredited by the A2LA for compliance with ISO/IEC Guide 17025 for good laboratory practices
