Shell Lubricants says its upgraded LubeAnalyst program provides an online user interface that now offers a worldwide sample history and failure trends on various types of equipment and engine types. A proactive, scientific approach to preventive maintenance, Shell calls it.
The program offers easy-to-use software that allows customers to view and track test results and view management information offline.
Used-oil samples provided through the program can reveal whether contaminants such as water, coolant, fuel or dirt are getting into the oil, indicating head-gasket leaks, leaking fuel injectors, or other problems. Spectrochemical analysis detects the presence of wear metals in the oil, and unusually high amounts could be a sign of abnormal wear. The analysis also measures the oil’s viscosity, base number (reserve alkalinity), and fuel-soot level.
