Your Oil Condition Questions

Q. What is the condition of my
    fleet’s oil?

Q. Do my trucks have an intrusion?

Q. Have my trucks lost too much oil?

Q. What are the most effective oil
    brands, wear packages, and
    filters for my operation?
Knowledge Leads To…
Maximized fuel efficiency.

Reduction in costly engine rebuilds and replacements.

Extended equipment life.

Optimized oil maintenance practices based on specific
vehicle conditions, not generalized algorithms.

Make Important Decisions
Compare oil brands and filters to identify the best protection
for each vehicle.

Compare oil change intervals to determine oil changes
based on condition.

Alerts provide immediate warning so you can take
corrective action before serious
damage and failures occur.

Oil Brand & Filter Comparison


                          Brand “A” indicates longer additive life
                          which leads to reduced oil change
                          intervals, improved engine performance

Water/Coolant/Fuel Intrusion

     case, water in the oil
Immediate Impact on Fuel
Consumption
Fuel consumption is a measure of engine efficiency.

One important factor of engine efficiency
is oil condition.

Managing oil condition results
in reduced fuel consumption.
