Common methods include:
Spectrometric Analysis: Detects wear metals and additive elements.
Viscosity Testing: Assesses the oil’s flow properties.
Acid Number (AN) Testing: Measures oil acidity, indicating oxidation levels.
Particle Counting: Quantifies particulate contamination.
Water Content Measurement: Detects moisture that can cause corrosion.
These analyses reveal the oil’s condition, contamination levels, and any signs of degradation, guiding maintenance decisions.
