Applying a well designed oil analysis concept improves the reliability of machinery, reduces the maintenance costs and helps to conserve our natural ressources:
1. Oil health monitoring aviods unnecessary oil changes but also avoids to use the oil longer it should be
2. Wear debris control detects unnormal wear situations of the lubricated parts on an early stage
3. Contamination control helps to improve the life of the oil and of the lubricated components
Therefore, oil analysis allows much more than other techniques.
