Fluid analysis helps detect problems long before they materialize, so corrections can be made and failure is avoided. Fluid can reveal an astonishing amount of information about the inner workings of your engine. As it flows through the component, it picks up and carries wear and contaminated particles. A lab can analyze a fluid sample to determine if the wear is normal or abnormal. Having a history of fluid analysis results will give you a more accurate picture if an engine problem does start to develop. The first set of results will set a reference point. The next sets of results will start to establish trends. By tracking these trends over the life of a particular machine, it’s easier to identify any significant changes from analysis to analysis. Just remember to take fluid samples at the same time/mileage intervals each time, so the following sets of results can be more accurately compared. It’s simple to collect samples that you can send to a lab for analysis. Fleetguard even offers kits for fluid collection and samples. Check them out below. Coolant Analysis Kits Fuel Analysis Kits |
