Following our first Bobcat Fluid Analysis tips article (here), showing you the benefits of submitting samples digitally, we are now back to show the importance of controlling contamination levels.

One of the most common, and most serious, causes of equipment failure is particulate contamination. This can include improper lubricant, dirt, abrasives, coolant, fuel, soot, oxidation and nitration.

You know well what the consequences are: loss of productivity, downtime, and equipment failure.

It’s important to understand the contaminants present in the fluid and controlling contamination levels that can result in an increase in equipment life.

By using the Bobcat Fluid Analysis program, and testing for contamination in your fluid, you will learn what contaminants you’re dealing with, where the source of the problem is and recommendations for fixing the issue.
