Why S.O.S?

Our detailed oil and coolant testing captures information on wear elements, oil viscosity, Total Base Number (TBN) counts and fuel or water contamination. All studies are conducted in our sophisticated in-house laboratories, with nearly a quarter of samples coming from non-Cat equipment.

Oils

Sampling type 1

Oils

Lubricated systems are scrutinised for signs of degradation like wear metals, dirt and fuel. Particles are analysed and the source of contaminants are identified to enable correct repair.

Coolant

Sampling type 2

Coolant

Chemical compositions of additives are studied for imbalances through routine checks or in-depth analyses. Issues are then pinpointed for resolution.

Diesel

Sampling type 3

Diesel

Quality checks and microbial growth are tracked to prevent excessive wear on critical components like valves, valve guides, pistons and rings.
