Caution: All Ion Exchange Filters are NOT Created Equal
In our lives, we often fall prey to generalization. A great example, coffee is coffee. Coffee beans all look the same when roasted. The appearance in your cup is the same when brewed.
→Oil Analysis for Turbo-Machinery
Managing the Lubricant as an Asset Thank you for joining us today, July 28, for our hosted webinar. We appreciated your patience as we navigated some technical challenges, resulting in a presenter switch
→Phosphate Ester FRF Users
Current Guidance and Best Practices Webinar Electrohydraulic control (EHC) systems regulate the flow of steam into and output from steam turbine generators. These critical systems employ phosphate ester-based fluids as a result of
→A Make-up, Not a Break-up.
Not to generalize, but I think it is safe to say most of us can relate – partnerships take work. It is a daily and conscious commitment demanding of your time and attention.
→A Penny Pinched is Worth $1 Million Lost
Imagine you walk into the Dentist’s office, sit down in the chair and learn you have 5 cavities. You feel yourself sink in the chair at the thought of the dentist drill and
→Gas Turbine Lubricant Maintenance
Proactive maintenance for critical turbo machinery Presented June 17, 2021 during the RATS Technical Sessions Webinar Series, Peter Dufresne discussed active management and maintenance of gas turbine lubricants and the delivered impact on
→The best way to deal with lubricant varnish, is to never have to.
Stop lubricant varnish in its tracks. From the moment lubricants are put into service, they chemically breakdown. The primary pathway: oxidation. The result: oxidation waste products dissolve in the oil. This dissolved oxidation material
→A Breakthrough, Not a Breakdown.
If your turbine could talk, what would it say? What if the internal monologue of your turbine sounded like this? From the first day we are put into service our mission is to
→Ksp and Thermodynamic Considerations Relevant to Varnish Removal
Varnish is a result of unmanaged oil breakdown and its deleterious impact on reliability is well-documented. Traditionally defined as an insoluble deposit, varnish exists in soluble and insoluble states. The relative amount of
→Getting Answers through Lubricant Condition Monitoring
Connect the dots between critical rotating equipment lubricant condition monitoring and truly effective maintenance. When it comes to critical rotating equipment, lubricant condition monitoring and effective maintenance are essential. Unfortunately, many operators recognize
