Explore the multitude of reasons for opting for engine oil analysis. Employing an oil analysis laboratory mirrors a blood test for the sampled engine, uncovering running issues, monitoring wear on components, and verifying that the oil delivers the essential lubrication and heat transfer properties.
Our specialised engine oil analysis service is designed to provide comprehensive insights.
To utilise FA-ST's engine oil analysis services, simply acquire one of our convenient PRE-PAID engine oil sampling & analysis kits. This comprehensive kit includes all necessary tools for sample extraction. If you're using dipstick piping, a vacuum sample pump or a single-use sampling syringe may be required additionally.

The report encompasses insights into wear, contamination, chemical composition, and includes comments from our skilled laboratory technicians along with recommended actions if necessary.
Detecting wear debris in engine oil samples play a crucial role in preemptively identifying potential component issues, averting critical failures. Engine oil analysis, when implemented correctly, provides users with a detailed trend line of the engine's history. This facilitates the easy identification of increased wear levels, as a sharp rise between sampling points can indicate impending failures. Additionally, element analysis conducted on engine oil samples can unveil the root cause of any issues. Specific tests are performed when assessing wear levels in engine oil samples:
Contaminants in oils pose a significant concern, especially given the challenging conditions under which engine oils must operate to ensure necessary lubricity and protection. Monitoring the levels of potential harmful contaminants is imperative. Our engine oil contamination testing suite encompasses the following key aspects:
The chemical composition of oil plays a pivotal role in the functionality of any equipment, given the diverse applications that demand oils to deliver heat transfer, lubrication, and protection. With a myriad of available blends, ensuring the correct oil is used in your engines is crucial. Our laboratory conducts comprehensive tests on engine oil chemical makeup, focusing on the following key aspects:
