RS PRO 10 unit Box Oil Test Kit and Analysis Service

Introducing the RS PRO Oil Test Kit – a high quality and easy to use oil testing kit that can be used to monitor the condition of lubricating oil, especially as part of preventative maintenance, and reducing unwanted and costly downtime. Operating in accordance with the universal ASTM and ISO standards, a convenient oil, fluid, and specialist analysis testing service is included for our customers in the UK.

It is known that poor or inadequate lubrication is the primary cause of 70% of industrial equipment failures*, and by using the RS PRO oil analysis service, the condition and contents of the lubricating oil can easily and reliably be identified before it becomes a serious issue that could result in unwanted downtime. The RS PRO oil sampling kit and testing service can identify issues like:

• Adverse mechanical wear


• Oil health


• Moisture ingress


• Lubricant contamination

Alongside the tools and contents to perform an easy fluid sample extraction, we also provide:

• Full testing and analysis from our ASTM and ISO certified laboratory and support from our in-house lab chemists and experts in analytical chemistry and lubricant condition monitoring


• We look at the fluid properties like viscosity, contamination, and wear debris to determine any wear issues or leaks within the machinery


• Once the analysis is complete, a clear report is issued to help you make the most of the results to help maintain and troubleshoot the reliability of your machines

The RS Pro oil test kit is a high quality and easy to use oil testing kit that can be used to monitor the condition of oil and other lubricants in machinery, especially as part of preventative maintenance, and reducing unwanted and costly downtime.
