The identification of various contaminants in engine, turbine and compressor oil can shed light on the condition of the internal parts and help to predict failures before they occur. Wear metals analysis can identify problems with rings, bearings and similar parts. Testing for oxidation and nitration products can give the status of the lubricant and help to reduce varnishes, sludges and other deposits. The presence of antifreeze additives such as glycols, sodium, boron, and potassium can be used as indicators of cooling system leaks and seal failures. Corrmet Engineering Services provides a program of testing and data interpretation that can increase the efficiency of your maintenance program to help reduce costs incurred from failures and down-time.
Programs can be custom designed for individual applications.
