Oil Analysis

The compressor is an integral part of any chiller or air conditioning unit. An oil analysis allows our team at Reliable Plant Maintenance to assess the condition of the unit without tearing it completely down. When unacceptable wear-and-tear conditions develop inside the compressor, a corresponding detectable change in the characteristics of the oil will become evident.

The oil analysis can test for:

• Metal Wear
• Moisture
• Acidity
• Viscosity
• Solid Residues

An oil analysis can detect the presence of harmful acids, plus corrosion causing water and abnormal metal wear particles. Comparing the results of the analysis against your chiller’s historical operating data enables our analysts to provide an accurate diagnosis with individualized recommendations for each system.

By identifying and repairing abnormal machine conditions early, it is much easier and less expensive to keep your chiller in peak operating condition. If the oil analysis is conducted on a scheduled basis, you will enjoy more reliable chiller performance for years to come.
