Check the Condition of Your Machinery
Your heavy machinery may need maintenance or repairs without you knowing it. Fluid analysis can check internal fluids to determine whether your machinery requires service. Use Core Equipment Group’s fluid analysis kits to monitor equipment health. You can also analyze fluids to demonstrate proper maintenance and increase your equipment’s resale value.
What Is Fluid Analysis?
Fluid analysis involves extracting fluids from several parts of your equipment and testing the fluid for contaminants. These tests reveal microscopic pieces that indicate wear inside your machine.
By testing the fluid, you can discover where the pieces came from and learn how long aging components will last before you must replace them. The results of an analysis tell you when to perform repairs, change filters and replace oil.
How Often to Sample Fluids
Use manufacturer recommendations to determine how often to sample fluids for various equipment models. When you have critical equipment or harsh operating conditions, you may need to test fluids more regularly than recommended.
