Equipment Management Update: Formulation for Coolants and Diesel Fuels
 |
Add New Equipment When adding a new component under Equipment Management for Coolant / Heat Transfer Fluid and Diesel Fuel, users will now see a "Formulation" field under Component Values. This is where you will select the formulation, such as Conventional, Hybrid, OAT, NAPS Free for coolants or High Sulfur or Low Sulfur for diesel fuels. Component types now include the component in which the sample was collected. For Coolants/Heat Transfer Fluids - Boiler, Condenser, Direct-to-Chip Cooling Loop, Radiator, etc. For Diesel Fuel - Bulk Tank, Day Tank, Engine, Fuel System, etc. |

IMPORTANT!
Changes to Coolant Reports
Your next Coolant Analysis Report will look a bit different. We've enhanced what is included on coolant reports, and some information has been relocated. In addition, all coolant reports will now include an area for photos of the coolant sample and results of additional testing we have added to our testing capabilities in the laboratory. We have updated our How to Read a Coolant Report Technical Bulletin with the new layout.
NOTE: Sample photos are being gradually introduced across all laboratories. As we work on rolling out this addition, not all reports will include photos right away.

The Right Fluid Amount and Container Makes a Difference
When submitting a fluid sample for analysis, more isn't better - and the container matters.
 |
Sample kits include jars specifically designed for fluid sampling and efficient processing at the laboratory. Using the provided sample jar helps protect the integrity of your sample, promotes a secure seal during shipment and allows our laboratory team to process samples efficiently. Sample Collection Tips:
Important: Extra fluid does not provide additional value for testing, and alternate containers can introduce potential contamination, create additional handling and increase the amount of material that must be disposed of at the laboratory. A simple step at the time of sampling can keep your sample moving smoothly through the laboratory. |

PQ has changed to Ferrous Debris Analysis by FerroQ
|
Your fluid analysis laboratory is enhancing ferrous debris test results and analysis for oils and greases. All laboratory locations will report Ferrous Debris (fdM) in ppm instead of PQ Index as we switch to the FerroQ test method in September. If you received PQ testing, you will notice a change in your test results reported on your sample reports. For more information, read our technical bulletin PQ vs FerroQ. If you have any questions, please contact service@eoilreports.com |
