Industrial Oil Analysis Services
Protect Your Machinery. Maximize Efficiency. Accelerate Production.
CME (Condition Monitoring Experts) specializes in industrial oil analysis to protect your machines, production and profits. Our precise diagnostics find early indications of wear, contamination and lubricant breakdown in all your critical equipment from hydraulics to gear boxes to engines and turbines and allow for proactive maintenance of your assets, extended the life of your equipment, and reduced downtime.
Why Oil Analysis For Industrial Equipment?
Industrial equipment is operated in extreme environments with high loads, variable speeds and continuous cycles and lubricants will degrade, adulterate or lose efficacy over time putting critical components at risk.
Routine oil analysis allows the user to:
- Recognize wear before it becomes a catastrophic failure
- Extend the total life of engines, hydraulics, and gear systems
- Avoid unplanned downtime and the costs of maintenance
- Maximize equipment availability and productivity
- Implement a predictive and proactive maintenance model
Wear & Elemental Analysis
Detect potential wear metals, contaminants, and other additives present in your lubricant using ICP Spectroscopy and trend-based testing.
Viscosity & Additive Analysis
Monitor viscosity (at 40 °C and 100 °C), Viscosity Index (VI), Base Number to determine the health of your oil.
Moisture & contamination detection
Detect water, monitor contamination, and identify particles beyond ISO/SAE standards.
Fluid condition & Chemical analysis
Determine oil aging with FTIR and TAN, contuing the testing with flash point, density, foaming, rust, and emulsion.
Wear debris and ferrography
Categorizing wear particles with Analytical Ferrography through direct/online methods and the ability to monitor in real-time.
Advanced Industrial Oil Analysis
Specialized, equipment-specific tests such as Filter Debris, RULER®, RBOT, corrosion metrics, and more are combined with predictive maintenance and expert guidance, while optional transformer oil analysis with Dissolved Gas Analysis (DGA) helps detect fault gases and mitigate transformer failures.
