Oil Analysis
Imagine being able to examine what’s happening inside an engine, gearbox, or hydraulic system without disassembly. With the oil analysis program, you will be able to monitor the internal operating conditions of your equipment simply by taking samples of your oil. To purchase an oil analysis kit and supplies, contact your local dealer.
Benefits of Oil Analysis
Identify Contaminents
Wear-causing contamination in your oil can negatively effect your equipment’s internal operating environment. Identifying contaminations is important to the wear life of your equipment.
Ensure Lubricant Integrity
Monitoring lubricant properties helps eliminate “lube mixing” and ensures that your oil performs as it should.
Identify Minor Problems Before Major Failures
State-of-the-art oil analysis identifies dirt, wear particles, fuel dilution and coolant – contaminants that can cause catastrophic failure or significantly shorten equipment life.
Maximize Asset Reliability
Analysis data ensures that units are up, running and making money.
Increase Resale Value
Analysis results provide valuable maintenance history documentation that easily justifies higher equipment resale values.
Fast & High-Quality Testing
Oil analysis is fast and accurate. Laboratories are accessible within 48 hours ground transit from almost anywhere in the continental United States. Once your samples have been logged at the lab, you can track their progress online.
You can be confident that the test results you receive are accurate, repeatable and traceable to a standard. Bobcat testing laboratories are ISO 17025 A2LA accredited. It's the highest level of quality attainable by a testing laboratory, backed by the most stringent accrediting body in the industry. This means that your oil analysis program is supported by a documented quality system you can depend on to deliver superior testing and customer services.
