John Edwards here, talking about contamination control fundamentals specifically how we measure and quantify in regards to fluid samples. We sell a fluid sample kit here: that comes to you, the customer, in a box, with the bottle and some paperwork, serial number stamped on it. Where you would pull your sample in this sterile bottle, fill out the information. It comes in an already self-addressed, prepackaged return shipping information, goes to the lab within a couple of days. You have a report of fluid analysis that gives you the iso-cleanliness code, also the water content that may be in contamination, if you got a high percentage of water in a high humidity environment, that will affect your lubricity of the system, also a chemical breakdown of what kind of particles are found in it that can be important in your additive breakdown in your oil package, or if you see some rust in the system, or if you find some copper that you know is coming from the the actual component in the system, and it can give you proactive maintenance warning, and then you can also keep trend analysis on machines, if you make improvements, and get emailed the results within a couple days.
