Oil Analysis
Oil Analysis is the sampling and laboratory analysis of a lubricant's properties, suspended contaminants, and wear debris. Oil Analysis is performed during routine preventive maintenance to provide meaningful and accurate information on lubricant and machine condition. By tracking oil analysis sample results over the life of a particular machine, trends can be established which can help eliminate costly repairs. The study of wear in an machinery is called tribology. Tribologists often perform or interpret oil analysis data. Oil Analysis can be divided into three categories: 1. analysis of oil properties & Condition , 2. analysis of contaminants, 3. analysis of wear debris from machinery
Oil Analysis Aviation
Oil and wear particle analysis is a combination of spectrometric, ferrographic, and filter analysis. when used as part of your quality assurance program, oil and wear particle analysis will detect abnormal wear modes in aviation systems, long before the wear can lead to any serious damage. Wear Check's analysis will indicate when components are near failure. this gives you time to plan maintenance. Worn components can be replaced at your local facility avoiding rental, and shipping charges. In flight shutdowns, as a result of failed critical components, are avoided, as Wear Check's analysis pinpoints the wear signatures of rolling element bearings, gears, transmission
system, and other critical components. Wear Check's filter and ferrographic analysis utilizes the morphology of wear particles to detect specific wear modes. Avoid installation errors, and rapid failures, when analysis detects cutting wear from misaligned components. Wear Check's oil and wear particles analysis will allow you to realize a reduction in the cost of equipment maintenance, and an increase in aircraft availability and reliability.
