FAST™ Marine Oil Analysis
Sampling
Sampling and mailing couldn’t be easier. Just put your samples in the pre-labeled vials, then send the vials to us using pre-labeled mailers.
Analysis
Our state-of-the-art laboratory in Ghent uses barcode reading to improve precision and increase sample throughput. The analysis always includes the metal content for a complete range of metals (wear metals, additive metals, etc.). We constantly monitor and calibrate our analytical equipment with reference samples. But we don’t just rely on the latest technology. Our marine lubricant experts review every report and add commentary where appropriate.
