See real-time examples of how to take a proper fluid sample as well as access to "how to" guides for how to properly take, label and understand the results of the fluid analysis.
Establishing a routine sampling interval helps you and your dealer build up a trend of data over time, which means you’ll enjoy even more meaningful recommendations from our expert analysts. And the first step to good results is submitting a clean sample. These tools show you how.
During Cat® S•O•S℠ Services analysis, we perform multiple tests on your machine’s oil, coolant and diesel fuel. The results of these tests can reveal a lot of important information about your equipment, including:
Each oil-washed system produces a particular concentration of wear metals during normal operation. By evaluating wear inside the lubricated compartment, we can see if your rates are normal or not.
What we look for:
Wear occurs when oil depletes its additives and begins to deteriorate. That can damage components in oil-washed compartments.
What we look for:
Even the smallest particles (those not visible to the naked eye) can do big damage inside your machine. That’s why identifying and eliminating fluid contamination is so important.
What we look for:
The wrong fluid in the wrong compartment can affect performance and lube protection — or even severely damage major components.
What we look for:
Today’s engines produce a lot of power from a small package, and cooling systems have to do more with less. Extending drain intervals or recycling coolant to reduce disposal costs could lead to major problems.
What we look for:
Fuel quality is a key indicator of overall system health. Poor-quality fuel — inside the tank and out — can result in abnormal component wear and rising maintenance costs.
