Fuel oil analysis is important for many reasons. For example, the information obtained can be used to; determine the efficiency of gas turbines generating electrical power, evaluate the quality of a supplier’s fuels, ensure compliance to regulatory testing criteria, prevent costly mechanical problems caused by fuel contamination and to check your fuel’s actual Btu content to suppliers claims.
Synthetic lubricants are the lifeblood of many hi-tech mechanical systems. Lubricant analysis programs can often help to diagnose the operational “health” of industrial or aerospace systems such as gas turbines and hydraulic systems.Data trend changes or contamination events can signal when appropriate maintenance actions or lubricant changes should be performed. Both individual reports + dynamic spreadsheet report formats can be provided.
