Filter Technologies Oil Management Program uses oil analysis results to assist our
customers in achieving the benefits of extended oil drain intervals and longer service life for their
engines and equipment.
Oil analysis is the key to achieving the benefits of optimizing oil life and extending drain intervals. In
addition, oil analysis is the most economical way to measure wear or contamination in the engine or
equipment. Of primary importance is the interpretation of the test data. Typical oil analysis reports
usually present the data in an easy to understand format and results.
Typical

oil analysis conducted by an independent laboratory will contain the following
parameters and provide a recommendation to continue usage of oil OR change oil:
Additive Metals
Total Base Number (TBN) ability to neutralize acid
Wear metals
