ChipCHECK
AT-LINE CHIP
ANALYSIS
ChipCHECK EMPOWERS YOUR
MAINTENANCE CREW TO CONDUCT CHIP ANALYSES, IMMEDIATELY ON-SITE.
When a chip collection device has captured a chip in the oil flow, ChipCHECK is the fastest way to make on-site equipment maintenance decisions. ChipCHECK provides maintainers with quick, reliable, and conclusive information within minutes.
Bring the lab
into your hangar.
- Provides easy-to-use, at-line automated quantitative debris analysis in minutes: simply insert the chips and press “Go”
- No need to send samples away or wait for lab analysis
- Small portable device can be used in field deployment
- Helps eliminate unplanned engine and gearbox events
- Cuts costs of NEOF (no evidence of failure) overhauls and lab delays
- Provides an accurate analysis of damage to enable appropriate maintenance action
How ChipCHECK Works
ChipCHECK uses Gastops proprietary laser spectroscopy technology to analyze chips and measure proven reliable indications of component damage: chip size, chip count, and metal alloy identification. Confirming component and location of wear by comparing data to our extensive library of metal alloys, it delivers a conclusive analysis in minutes.

Chip Analysis Services
Our chip analysis service, available with a Service Maintenance Agreement, offers increased functionality for customers that choose to connect their ChipCHECK instrument to our portal. These enhancements include the ability to view historical records of their chip analyses, setup automatic report distribution to key stakeholders within their organization, and the ability to upload their chip analyses reports from outside laboratories to have a single repository of maintenance date for their entire fleet.
Connecting directly to stakeholders responsible for asset disposition is yet another way that ChipCHECK helps to streamline operations. As an additional benefit of the service, immediate customer support is available without the need to transfer data if problems are encountered with the ChipCHECK unit itself.
