Asset Reliability & Maintenance Schedules
We deliver standardized fluid inspection programs engineered to maximize the runtime of critical power generation assets. Our rigorous preventive schedules isolate thermal and mechanical stress across turbines, transformers, and gearboxes before failure impacts grid stability.
Technical Maintenance Intervals
Standardized lubrication and fluid integrity inspection schedules for critical power generation assets.
Monthly Inspection: Visual reservoir check, oil level verification, leak detection across hydraulic control lines and servo valves.
Quarterly Analysis: Full ASTM D4378 panel — RULER (remaining useful life), MPC (membrane patch colorimetry), particle count ISO 4406, and viscosity drift.
Annual Inspection: Dissolved Gas Analysis (DGA) per IEEE C57.104 to detect thermal and electrical fault gases (H₂, CH₄, C₂H₂, C₂H₄). Dielectric breakdown voltage per ASTM D877.
Biannual Deep Assessment: Interfacial tension (ASTM D971), acidity/TAN (ASTM D664), moisture content (Karl Fischer, ASTM D1533).
Bi-Annual PM: Main bearing grease replenishment, gearbox oil sampling, and seal inspection for water ingress.
Interval Optimization: Endoscopic inspection of gear teeth and bearing races combined with ferrography for wear debris morphology analysis.
Technical Fluid Analysis
Prevent catastrophic equipment failure with our comprehensive fluid condition monitoring program. We combine on-site sampling expertise with state-of-the-art laboratory testing.
On-Site Sampling
