FAQs

The ideal frequency depends on the type of equipment, operating environment, and criticality of the asset. For most industrial applications, we recommend monthly or quarterly testing as a baseline. High-load or mission-critical equipment may benefit from more frequent testing, while non-critical systems may only need semiannual checks.
Yes. We can analyze a wide range of lubricants, including hydraulic oils, gear oils, turbine oils, compressor oils, engine oils, and greases. Each test is tailored to the lubricant’s formulation and the equipment’s operating conditions to ensure relevant and accurate results.
Standard turnaround is typically 24 to 72 hours from the time the lab receives your sample. For critical equipment or urgent needs, expedited testing may be available upon request.
You’ll receive a detailed report outlining the issue, its severity, and recommended actions. Our team can help interpret results, prioritize next steps, and integrate findings into your overall maintenance strategy. We’re not just providing data — we’re providing solutions.
Absolutely. We’ll work with your team to create a tailored oil analysis program based on your assets, operating environment, and reliability goals. That includes setting sampling intervals, defining testing parameters, and training your team on best practices.
