Laboratory analyses

All laboratory services for air, ventilation and refrigeration technology from a single source. Whether stationary or mobile refrigeration technology, we have the right analysis methods as well as the necessary expertise for you:

Analytics of refrigerants and refrigerant mixtures and their evaluation with regard to various current standards (e. g. DIN 8960, AHRI 700, SAE J2776, etc.). You can find the order form here: German, English
Examination of new and used refrigerating machine oils, you can find the order form here: German, English
Determination of physical, chemical, thermodynamic and electrical properties of refrigerants, lubricants and their mixtures
Characterization of fluids and materials for stationary and mobile refrigeration technology
Chemical-thermal conditioning methods and compatibility tests of components with refrigerant-oil mixtures

Our laboratory ensures the highest degree of flexibility and quality. We offer competent (customer-specific) solutions for your analytical questions.

Requirements at the ILK

State-of-the-art measurement technology, including gas chromatographs (with FID, WLD and mass detectors), microwave digestion system, ICP-OES and much more
Unique testing and measuring equipment
Development and evaluation of new (customer-speciffic) test methods
Participation in standardization committees (e. g. DIN) and participation in new industry standards
Partial accreditation by the Deutsche Akkreditierungsstelle GmbH (DAkkS) according to DIN EN ISO/IEC 17025:2018
