Calibration Options for Oil/Grease Analyzers
PDF Print E-mail

Several calibration options are available:

  • Pre-calibration by Wilks Enterprise (non-certified factory calibration) or by a Certified Testing Laboratory 
  • Packaged calibration standards available for purchase from Wilks Enterprise
  • Customer prepared standards for calibration as described in the InfraCal TOG/TPH User's Guide

  • Standards
Standards can be made gravimetrically or volumetrically as described in the InfraCal TOG/TPH User's Guide.  Pre-packaged S-316 and Hexane calibration standards are available for purchase from Wilks Enterprise. These standards have been prepared by weight (mg/ml) by an ISO-9001 registered laboratory. If you are using Vertrel MCA or pentane, the Hexane standards are used for calibration. Please see the descriptions below to determine the appropriate standard for your analysis.

  • Non-Certified Factory Calibration
Wilks Enterprise can provide the InfraCal TOG/TPH Analyzer with a non-certified 6-point factory calibration using any of calibration standards that we have available for sale. Please contact Wilks Enterprise Inc. for further information and pricing.

  • Certified Laboratory Calibration
The InfraCal TOG/TPH Analyzer can be calibrated by a certified laboratory such as Sherry Laboratories, 800-737-2378 or 337-235-0483 or Petroleum Laboratories Inc., 337-234-7414. The standards can be made from the customer's own oil sample or from a heavy weight oil. Standards are prepared on weight/volume basis. The standards can be verified against EPA Method 413.1 or 1664 for an extra charge. Please contact Sherry Laboratories or Petroleum Laboratories directly for more information and pricing concerning their calibration service.

  • Calibration against a Laboratory Method
TOG or TPH is defined by the method the regulatory agency requires for compliance. There are several different methods for measuring TOG or TPH. Each one measures some property of the constituents of TOG or TPH and one method does not necessarily match another method. The InfraCal TOG/TPH Analyzer can be calibrated to match a particular laboratory method. For detailed instructions see the InfraCal TOG/TPH User's Guide.

S-316/TOG/TPH Six Point Calibration Standard Set
  50:50 Isooctane/Octanoic Acid in S-316 as per ASTM Method D-7066-04 is for customers measuring non-polar (petroleum) and polar (animal and vegetable fats) hydrocarbons for FOG or TOG measurements with tetrachloroethylene or S-316 as the extracting solvent.

 403-1041
S-316/TPH Six Point Calibration Standard Set
  Light Mineral Oil in S-316 prepared by a certified laboratory for TPH analysis.  Replaces P/N: 408-7923-99 (3-in-1 Oil in Freon-113).  Both 3-in-1 Oil and mineral oil are heavy hydrocarbons for customers in the petroleum industry that are just measuring petroleum hydrocarbons in water or soil and the now-banned Freon-113 is replaced with the S-316 solvent.

 403-1043
Hexane/TOG/TPH Six Point Calibration Standard Set 
50:50 Stearic Acid/Hexadecane in N-hexane as per EPA Method 1664 is for customers measuring non-polar (petroleum) and polar (animal and vegetable fats) hydrocarbons for FOG or TOG measurements with hexane as the extracting solvent.

 403-1044

Hexane/TPH Six Point Calibration Standard Set  Light Mineral Oil in N-hexane prepared by a certified laboratory for TPH analysis.  Replaces P/N:  409-7924-99(3-in-1 Oil in hexane).  Both 3-in-1 Oil and mineral oil are heavy hydrocarbons for customers in the petroleum industry that are just measuring petroleum hydrocarbons in water and soil.
