HOW IT WORKS
When equipment operates in demanding work environments, excessive wear and tear can cause engine components and other parts to release contaminants into the oil, hydraulic fluid, fuel and other fluids.
Hydraulic oil testing, emulsion fluid testing, and hydraulic fluid analysis tests for the presence and level of contaminants — like elevated iron, chrome and silicone — and provides further insight into the health and efficiency of your machinery. Several contaminants can advance damage to your equipment and cause excessive wear to hydraulic cylinders and other parts, leading to premature failure.
CB HYMAC uses advanced tools and equipment to thoroughly evaluate a variety of characteristics from all of our oil, hydraulic fluid, and other fluid samples, including:
- Wear metals
- Water
- Fuel dilution
- For eight particles
- Soot and sulfur compounds
- Viscosity
- And more
With these fluid tests, our technicians will determine a baseline fluid quality factor. Using the latest fluid tests and our baseline readings, CB HYMAC can then evaluate fluid contamination levels, corrosion levels and equipment stability. When variances in the fluid quality present themselves, our team will then develop a proactive maintenance and repair plan according to your specific needs.
WHY HYDRAULIC FLUID ANALYSIS MATTERS
In the past, business owners had oil and fluid changes performed at routine intervals, usually after machinery showed signs of performance failure or low fluid level indicators lit up dashboards. Downtime during equipment maintenance was time-consuming and costly, so it was simpler to delay fluid changes as long as possible.
Certain conditions like equipment run-times, extreme temperature fluctuations, and dirty or dusty work locations greatly affect the quality of oil, coolant, hydraulic fluid, and other fluids, accelerating wear and tear and requiring more frequent fluid changes. While equipment maintenance and repair is an inconvenience, your machinery relies on clean fluid and routine testing to streamline performance and guarantee long-term reliability and effectiveness.
