Analysis of lubricants
Degratation, ageing or foreign particles in a lubricant can cause severe and expensive problems. CSI Nordic can analyse and identify lubricants to see if the right lubricant is used and to verify that the lubricant is suitable for the specified purpose. Vi can separate particles and analyse their composition in order to match them with known material and trace them to their source. Particles can originate from worn components in gearboxes or engines.
Are you wondering which lubricant is suitable or did you encounter foreign particles in your lubricant? Contact us and we help you with these concerns.
