Fleet management analysis

Another way that on-site analysis can save fleets and the environment is by extending oil use beyond antiquated PM practices such as requiring oil changes every 3,000 miles or 90 days, whether needed or not. Over 70% of oil changes done based on time or mileage are not necessary, which can waste valuable technician time, fresh oil, and create unnecessary hazardous waste. Oil analysis, in fact, finds oil to still be in good working condition 82% of the time despite 3,000 mile or time-based recommendations.

OSA meets ASTM international standards for oil analysis and complies with ASTM-D7417-10 “Standard Test Method for Analysis of In-Service Lubricants Using Particular four-Part Integrated Tester.”
