And Get Get Better Better Res Results ults ... A Whole Lot Faste Faster! r! If yours is like many companies, you may already be winging your way around oil analysis, perhaps trying to predict failures or just basing oil drains on your oil analysis report recommendations. Either way, you probably know there’s a lot about oil analysis you haven’t mastered … and you might be wondering what you are missing. Wouldn’t you like to know ALL about what oil analysis can do for you? Now you can!
You’ll Learn More Than Just Oil Analysis Extending oil and machine life are two of the primary goals of oil analysis, but analyzing the oil won’t make the oil or machine last any longer. That’s why Noria’s proven strategy for extending machine and lubricant life by up to 10X is the cornerstone of these courses. You will learn how making small adjustments to lubricant properties can result in huge savings and take your return-on-investment from oil analysis to new levels.

Oil Analysis Blunders Don’t Let These Happen to You … • A large steel mill wanted to make every machine ready for easy oil sampling. After installing more than 1,200 new oil sampling ports, it began getting strange data on oil analysis reports. After investigating, it found that each of the new sampling ports was installed in the wrong location. • A company that had been using oil analysis for several years wondered why it was never able to detect pending bearing failures. After a bearing failure shut down production for more than a day, it discovered that the oil analysis tests being conducted were not capable of detecting impending failure. Instead, the tests were designed to identify wrong or degraded lubricants only.
