Petrotech oil analysis tests a sample of oil taken from your equipment just after shut down. Three different types of testing are done on this sample:

1. Physical and chemical testing — measures problems such as the percentage of water or fuel dilution; the presence of coolant, carbon build up, or silica dirt; and a measurement of viscosity.

2. Atomic Absorption analysis — measures the presence of even the most microscopic particles of metals, can determine whether engine component wear rates are taking place at an abnormal rate.

3. Infra-Red testing — determines the condition of the oil additive package. This test can help in determining if the oil drain intervals are at the proper length for the equipment and conditions of usage.
