"In our industry, keeping dirt out of our equipment is unavoidable," says Bartholomew. "While dirt has a deleterious effect on the lubricant, the rate of wear conditions and degradation need to be closely monitored to maximize the service life of our lubricants without compromising equipment performance." After a thorough investigation of oil analysis offerings, Beaver Excavating selected ExxonMobil's Signum Oil Analysis Program. This customizable, online program provides a platform to easily manage all oil analysis activities, including monitoring critical components, developing sampling strategies and analyzing trends. According to Bartholomew, the functionality of the program gives his team the information needed to make oil suitability decisions that support the company's business objectives. Strategic sampling Beaver Excavating has developed a comprehensive sampling strategy. Based on component type, the company maintains complete records of the lubricant used, its service hours, the component's operating hours, make-up volume and any system change-outs. It uses the Signum program to capture and manage this information when samples are taken.
