Increasing reliability, efficiency and sustainability by mitigating degradation and varnishing of industrial lubricants

Presented by: Lars Van Dijk, General Manager, Asia, Fluitec, and Jo Ameye, General Manager, Fluitec NV

Outline:

• Origin of varnish (modern base oil & additive chemistries found in industrial lubes and their influences on varnish formation)
• Oil degradation (how do industrial oils degrade and what consequences does this have for equipment)
• Condition monitoring, (explanation of a typical oil analysis slate for industrial equipment. Recommended oil matrices)
•  Solutions to varnish (which solutions can be applied to reduce degradation, both pro-active and reactive when varnish is prevalent)
• Case studies
