Analyze Your Oil Without Expensive
Instruments!
Most people associate oil analysis with scientific
laboratories and exotic analytical instruments.
Indeed, oil analysis is usually done this way
and it generates considerable value and benefit.
However, there is a growing trend among practitioners
to enhance the value of oil analysis
further by frequently applying simple onsite
methods.
These field and plant-level techniques don’t
require university training or cutting-edge
technologies, but rather the use of inexpensive
devices and inspection methods, especially sight,
sound, smell, and touch.
Another important advantage of using simple
on-site oil analysis tests is the positive
impact it has on the organization.
When an organization employs on-site methods
for analyzing its oil, they have ownership in
the process. It is their data and it is their
program.
Suddenly, the information is affecting decisions
about managing lubrication and equipment maintenance.
Interest in effectively managing lubrication
increases as technicians and crafts people talk
informally amongst themselves. Slowly, you see
the entire organization begin to take pride
in assuring lubrication excellence.
The pride gives way to passion and all of the
sudden you see the right oil going into
the right machine; filters that are
malfunctioning are replaced; reservoir caps
get properly replaced after a top-off, etc.
The sophisticated analysis information produced
by your outside lab takes on a new meaning and
is seen in a new light.
Likewise, management begins to depend
on oil analysis to the point that important
maintenance decisions aren’t made without it.
The path to lubrication excellence is lined
with people. Get the people issues right and
the technical issues will resolve themselves.
Simple on-site oil analysis produces ownership,
pride and passion, and gets the people issues
right. This book explains the use and application
of several such methods that can be easily
applied during common walk-around inspections,
maintenance, and oil sampling.
This practical handbook of onsite tests lets
you:
-
Catch failures before they happen
-
Make routine inspections more effective
-
Get instant machine health information
-
Troubleshoot problems quickly
The Lubrication Field Test and Inspection
Guide includes dozens of methods that
you can easily conduct during common walk-around
inspections, maintenance, and oil sampling.
Highly illustrated, this book includes lots
of photos and comparitors for quick reference.
