Oil analysis summarizes the condition of your oil and identifies component wear/contamination. It typically includes evaluating the results of tests and providing detailed reports, including maintenance recommendations. It's a fast and highly accurate way to assess what's going on inside your engines.
Equipment owners use the data and recommendations to improve preventative maintenance, reduce equipment downtime and reduce costs by extending oil drain intervals.
We use an independent laboratory for analysis of oils representing a wide range of systems and applications. The lab will request that you send your oil sample(s) as soon as possible after collecting. The oil samples do not "break down," but any long delay between sampling and analysis can be crucial if a unit is failing. Once the oil sample reaches the lab, it will be processed within 24 hours. You will be notified if critical conditions are present.
