Conducting oil analysis on the lubricants used in machinery and equipment is a proactive and cost-efficient strategy to ensure that these lubricants provide the necessary protection and heat transfer capabilities. FA-ST collaborates with an independent ISO-accredited oil analysis laboratory, offering a comprehensive selection of oil testing packages tailored to evaluate critical factors such as cleanliness levels, viscosity, wear level monitoring, and more.
In addition to our extensive laboratory testing services, we provide various products designed to facilitate on-site testing of lubricants in a limited capacity. This eliminates the need to dispatch samples to the laboratory, streamlining the testing process and providing you with efficient insights into the condition of your lubricants.
Engaging in oil testing at our laboratory provides users with a comprehensive understanding of their fluid's condition. Our meticulous analysis of the provided samples results in a detailed report, delving into three vital factors that are essential for assessing the health and performance of any operational fluid.
Contaminants Assessment - Our laboratory examines samples for potential contaminants like dust, fibers, and water. Detecting these elements is crucial as they can lead to clogged filters, contributing to increased abrasive wear and viscosity alterations.
Wear Particle Monitoring - Utilising wear particle analysis, components can be consistently monitored. This proactive approach enables timely intervention, preventing potential operational disruptions and critical failures.
Chemical Composition Analysis - Assessing the chemical makeup is pivotal for determining essential factors like additive depletion and viscosity levels. Understanding these aspects is crucial in maintaining the fluid's optimal performance.
Diesel fuel plays a crucial role in various industries, powering numerous applications. With advancements in engine performance, reduced component tolerances make poor fuel quality potentially disastrous. Our diesel testing service identifies issues like water build-up, mis-fueling, contamination, and more.
Trust FA-ST's EN590 testing to monitor these critical fuel factors and ensure the quality of your diesel with our specialized analysis service.
Flash Point - A quick assessment to uncover any flammable substance contamination within the fuel.
Particulate Contamination - By detecting and addressing contaminants, you can prevent issues like injector failures.
Water Count - Diesel 'sweats' when stored leading to build ups of water at tank bottoms leading to running issues and potential diesel bug breeding.
Beyond the analysis of lube oil and diesel fuel, our laboratory extends its proficiency to various fluid analyses. Whether assessing the insulation integrity of transformer oils, ensuring optimal coolant/glycol properties, evaluating grease efficiency, or examining AdBlue quality, our diverse tests delve deep into fluid performance.
Rely on our analysis to confirm that your fluids meet performance expectations. Safeguard the health and efficiency of your equipment with valuable insights from our comprehensive fluid testing services.
Complementing our laboratory analysis services, FA-ST presents a selection of products facilitating swift on-site oil testing. Bid farewell to sample delays by exploring our patch analysis test kits, crafted for monitoring particulate contaminations. Opt for the oil spy test kit as your solution for detecting fuel dilution in engines. Explore our comprehensive lineup, which includes Kolor Kut Gauging Pastes and Diesel Bug Testing Dipslides.
