  • Extend Equipment Life & Improve Reliability – ensures that proper lubrication is present within the system & detects potential issues before they become worse, cause excessive wear or worse yet – cause system failure
  • Prolong Lubricant Life – proper sampling and analysis can determine if the fluid needs to be treated for any number of issues potentially maximizing the drain cycle time at longer intervals
  • Improve Operational Efficiency – minimizes machine downtime through identification of problems before they affect the system
