There’s a common misconception that all it takes to mitigate the risk of oil contamination is an infusion of fresh oil into the engine. And that if the oil is “new” from the manufacturer, it must be “clean.” But that’s not always correct.
Did you know that oil can be transferred eight times prior to reaching your equipment—exposing it to particulate contamination at each transfer point? A recent Chevron analysis found that “new” oil can actually contain up to 32 times as much particulate matter as OEM standards allow.
And since particle contamination is the number one cause of lubricant-related equipment failure, if left unchecked, this can lead to higher operational costs, increased downtime and the risk of catastrophic equipment failure.
