Testing fluids on a regular basis and comparing the results with historical data enables us to make proactive recommendations. This means we can help extend your oil intervals, saving costs and the environment while ensuring action is taken before any failure occurs.
Our industry-leading Fluid Analysis laboratory is one of the largest and most sophisticated of its kind. Every year we test over 200,000 samples from all makes and models of machines for customers across the globe.
You will receive a Fluid Analysis kit for every machine covered, together with details of how and when samples should be taken. Testing takes place within 24 hours of us receiving your sample, and the results are available online within 48 hours of the tests being completed. Depending on the support agreement taken, we will include this in your maintenance kit, or if a Finning engineer is performing the service, we will take a sample.
✔︎ Oil analysis – allows us to predict oil life, identify changes in component condition and highlight wear trends
✔︎ Coolant analysis – detects the presence of contaminants that can impair the performance of the cooling system
✔︎ Longer component life – protecting vital components from unnecessary wear prolongs equipment life
✔︎ Less unplanned downtime – identifying potential problems before they occur allows you to schedule maintenance
✔︎ Enhanced safety – protect your equipment and those around it by
reducing the risk of failure before it happens
✔︎ Reduced waste – only replacing fluids when they need changing minimises waste and lowers environmental impact
✔︎ Extended oil life – changing oil based on condition ensures you get maximum value out of every litre
