Oil Analysis Laboratories

Oil is the blood of machines. For any machine to run well and live a long life, its oil has to be kept Clean, Dry, and Fit for Use. The fastest way to destroy any machine is to let its lubricating oil become ineffective. Testing used oils provide critical information about the health of the oil as well as the machine it lubricates. Industry developed specific tests over the years for each application that would provide the needed information to properly manage oils and machines. Used oil analysis should be at the heart of any reliability program.
