Oil -How clean does it have to be?

Clean, dry oil can extend equipment life between failure up to 8 - 10 times the normal operating life. Timken, the bearing manufacturer, reports that reducing water levels from 100 ppm (parts per million) to 25 ppm increases bearing life 2 times. British hydraulics research indicate that if solids contamination with particles larger than 5 micron (0.005 mm or 0.0002”) is reduced from the range of 5,000 – 10,000 particles per milliliter of oil to 160 – 320 particles, the machine life is increased 5 times.

Is oil analysis proactive or predictive?

Industrial maintenance departments are in search of improved reliability. This means they want increased Mean Time Between Failures (MTBF) and when failures do occur, they want plenty of advance notice. The way to increase MTBF is to find and eliminate root causes of failure. This is proactive maintenance. The way to gain advanced notice of upcoming machine failures is to monitor failure signatures. This is predictive maintenance.
