Wear metals & additives
Elemental results help the lab assess wear, additive content, and contamination.
Connect oil condition and wear analysis to the equipment it came from. Record the machine, operating hours, and service history so each sample adds to a useful maintenance record.
Outbound + prepaid return shipping calculated at checkout.
Your first kit is $75. Kits 2–5 are $68.75 each; additional kits are $60 each. The price above is your average per kit. Discounts apply to each kit type separately.
Refrigeration oil analysis connects the condition of the lubricant with the compressor it protects. Available testing covers the groups below; the lab confirms the parameters for your sample.
Elemental results help the lab assess wear, additive content, and contamination.
Kinematic viscosity describes the oil’s resistance to flow.
Visual observations document the condition of the sample.
Acid number and water measurements add context to the oil’s condition.
Ferrous measurements help characterize iron-bearing wear material.
Particle analysis can distinguish cutting, sliding, fatigue, and non-metallic particles.
Build useful trends by testing two or more samples from the same component and asset, recording the sample point and service history each time. Oil analysis is separate from AHRI refrigerant testing.
For refrigeration compressor oils, including mineral, alkylbenzene, POE, and PVE. Oil analysis is outside the AHRI refrigerant laboratory certification scope.
