Engine Oil Analysis Kit

Choosing engine oil testing in a laboratory provides valuable insights into both the oil and engine's condition. Whether for motor vehicles, marine vessels, or plant equipment, our thorough engine oil analysis opens the door to the possibility of extending oil change intervals. Furthermore, it adeptly identifies issues like poor combustion, fuel leaks, and component wear long before they escalate into critical and expensive problems. Rely on the efficacy of our engine oil analysis for proactive maintenance and optimised performance.

International buyers are responsible for the charges on postage back to the UK for analysis.

Regular analysis is crucial for identifying potential issues and evaluating their potential damage. Our comprehensive analysis offer:

• Full spectrographic analysis (elemental analysis) to evaluate potential wear metals and monitor their levels.
• Verification of oil additive levels and detection of contaminants like Boron, Sodium, and Silicon that may have entered the system.
• Total ferrous debris (PQ/FW Idx) measurement to monitor magnetic wear particles regardless of size.
• Oil viscosity at 40 °C assessment to ensure the oil meets lubrication and heat transfer requirements for the engine.
• Detection of water with the Karl Fischer water test to identify potential engine entry.
• Fuel volume monitoring to prevent fuel leakage, avoiding oil viscosity issues that lead to increased component wear. High levels of unburnt fuel can risk crankcase explosions.
• Soot levels monitoring to gauge engine efficiency and combustion effectiveness.

This comprehensive analysis ensures a proactive approach to maintenance and helps optimise engine performance while mitigating potential risks.
