OIL ANALYSIS AND CONDITION MONITORING
As a service to our customers, US Petrolon performs oil condition monitoring on the data acquired from industrial oil analysis kits. Our industrial oil analysis service is one of the pillars of the USPI Oil Filtration and Industrial Lubricant Program.
Regular oil samples monitor the condition of industrial equipment and provide oil analysis. This monitoring allows proactive corrective actions to be taken before small problems grow and increase expenses through oil changes or equipment repairs and downtime. USPI assists all its clients in the development and implementation of a comprehensive oil analysis program. Our condition-based recommendations have helped save our customers thousands of hours of downtime and tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands of dollars in machinery failures.
