Chem-Tech Laboratories Improving Reliability with Oil Analysis

Across the world, industries are always searching for ways to improve reliability of their plants and machinery. Hence, their Maintenance departments are closely monitoring two parameters – Mean Time between Failures (MTBF) and Advance Notice Before Failure (ANBF). Every maintenance team aims to increase the MTBF and ANBF as both impact the plant’s productivity and efficiency adversely. Types of Maintenance The best way to improve MTBF and ANBF is through Preventive Maintenance and Predi...

Basics of Oil Analysis

What is Oil analysis? Oil Analysis dates back to 1950’s when Physicochemical Tests & spectroscopic techniques were used to monitor the condition & life of the Equipment’s. Oil analysis has its roots in the United States of America, where it was first used to monitor the condition of the locomotives. Oil is the lifeline for machines & equipment’s. Just like routine blood checkup for humans gives an idea about the health of a person, analysis of oil at regular intervals gives an...

Basic Oil Sampling Procedure

Proper oil sampling is critical to an effective oil analysis program. Without a representative sample, further oil analysis endeavors are futile. There are two primary goals in obtaining a representative oil sample. The first goal is to maximize data density. The sample should be taken in a way that ensures there is as much information per milliliter of oil as possible. This information relates to such criteria as cleanliness and dryness of the oil, depletion of additives, and the presence of we...
