How to implement an effective Oil Analysis Program
Understanding Report Data
The practice of oil analysis has drastically changed from its original
inception in the railroad industry. In today’s exploding computer and
information age, oil analysis has evolved into a mandatory tool in a re-
liability-centered maintenance program.
Lubri-Con Ltd can assist your company with an oil analysis program
for all major components. An oil analysis program is designed to pro-
vide the following:
• Monitor wear of machine components
• Check for contamination
• Ensure correct lubricant is in service

2. Where is the best place to get an oil sample?
3. What are the benefits and drawbacks of
screening oil samples before sending them to
my lab?
4. How clean should I keep my oil and what type
of filter should I use?
5. What are all these numbers I see on my oil
analysis report?
6. How do I know which oil analysis lab is right
for me?

wear metals and additives?
8. What steps can I take to ensure that I get a
good sample each time?
9. How do I determine the remaining useful life
of my oil?
10. How do I know if I should occasionally
“sweeten” my oil with additives?
11. What is the best temperature to trend viscosity
at?
12. What are the secrets to catching bearing faults
with wear debris analysis?
