Reduce Oil Sampling Mistakes
|
|
|
|
When installing oil sampling ports on equipment, try to incorporate permanent sample port identification tags. These tags help minimize confusion regarding the actual location of the sample port on the equipment and ensure that samples are drawn from the correct location. Sample port identification tags also help make certain the proper label is fixed to the bottle before it is sent to the lab.

By proactively monitoring slow speed bearings, an industrial plant can cut back on failures, reduce downtime, optimize work hours and become a more productive organization.

The simplest method for determining electrostatic discharges in oil is simply to listen for a clicking or ticking sound in the area around the filter or near the reservoir. Of course, it would be better to be proactive and work to eliminate the problem at its source rather than detecting the spark discharge problems.

Assessing Machine Failure Risks
|
|
|
From "Machinery Failure Analysis and Troubleshooting":
Although most companies would immediately shut down equipment found operating unsafely, few industrial enterprises would voluntarily shut down a machine to guarantee their "zero-injury" workplace goal. After everything is shut down, nobody gets hurt at work because nobody goes to work. It is more satisfying to set an acceptable risk tolerance and understand what exactly needs to be done to achieve it.
