We've designed our SOS Fluid Analysis Laboratory with you in mind. By monitoring your
machine's health with fluid analysis, we can help keep your equipment operating as efficiently
and productively as possible.
SOSSM Fluid analysis is available on all Caterpillar major
oil-lubricated systems, along with all other brands of equipment and engines. SOS Services
provides analysis of wear metals, oil condition and fluid contamination.
Oil Condition: Nitration, Soot, Oxidation, Sulfur, Viscosity and Particle Count.
Fluid Contaminants: Water, Antifreeze and Fuel.
These indicators can help optimize your oil change interval and detect potential problems early.
The results are obvious - you avoid unscheduled downtime, reduce maintenance costs and maximize
oil drain intervals.
Reports can be provided by e-mail, fax or standard mail. You'll be notified immediately if we
identify a problem and recommendations will be made to get you back up and running. Our professional
parts or service staff will gladly assist you in identifying economical repair options that quickly
meet your needs.
In addition to detecting problems early, SOS Services helps you develop a complete service history
for each machine. This proves invaluable when evaluating performance and planning replacement
purchases, and documents service history for a higher price at trade in or sale.
