FULL SUITE OF TESTING CAPABILITIES
Oil Analysis:
A preventive maintenance tool that uncovers fixable problems before they become catastrophic failures.
- Plan and schedule downtime
- Increased equipment reliability
- Improve productivity
- Accurately budget for repair and replacement costs
- Identify problems (contamination, wear) before failure
Diesel Fuel Analysis:
One of the most effective ways to simultaneously increase equipment reliability and fleet productivity.
- Catch problems (filter plugging, smoking, power loss, sticking valves)
- Maintains fuel’s sulfur and biodiesel content
- Detect fuel degradation and contamination
- Ensure compliance with warranty requirements and manufacturer specifications
- Increased equipment reliability
Coolant Analysis:
Determine the equipment health and fluid properties to help maintain your equipment and keep an eye on the fluid properties that protect the cooling system from corrosion.
- Catch cooling system problems (combustion, gas leaks, overhearing) early
- Reduce component failure
- Improve productivity
- Increased equipment reliability
Grease Analysis:
An additional condition monitoring tool can help improve the reliability of your equipment that cannot be easily monitored through traditional oil analysis.
- Observe conditions and optimize your intervals
- Identify wear and contamination
- Extend equipment life
- Increased equipment reliability
Whether you’re experiencing increase downtime, want to extend drain intervals or monitor equipment conditions, there’s a fluid analysis program for you.
