Tips for Flushing Oil Sampling Equipment
|
|
|
|
To help ensure your oil samples are as accurate as possible, it is important to flush your sampling equipment. Watch this video to learn which sampling hardware and accessories should be flushed as well as when and how much flushing is required in order to send representative oil samples to the laboratory.

Since oil in operation at a fully saturated level can be expected to leave varnish deposits, mitigation strategies to manage this condition should be directed at keeping varnish levels at a concentration where deposits would not be expected to form.

Hydrolysis within lubricating oils can cause a variety of problems. Not only can it affect the oil's physical properties such as viscosity, color, etc., but it can also change the chemical properties. Discover how you can mitigate the process of hydrolysis.

Oil application methods vary based on a number of variables such as speed, size, lubricant viscosity and ambient conditions. You must match the lubricant delivery mechanism with how the machine is expected to operate. Otherwise, large amounts of wear can be generated.

One of the most important times to take an oil sample on any machine is during the first few hours of operation. The probability of failure is much higher at the onset of a machine's life due to the potential of infant mortality, which is a result of break-in wear and other possible faults during fabrication.
