Frequently Asked Questions
Filter Barrels
Filter Barrels eliminate inadequate filtration of contaminants in gearboxes. The breather filter system can fail due to contamination of the oil vapour by dust ingress, or the use of silicon sealer. Excess pressure placed on seals (when breathers were blocked) can also cause breather filter failure.
Reduced efficiency of gearbox lubrication and filtration systems lead to higher maintenance costs, due to more frequent part replacements, and more frequent oil changes. Once fitted, Filter Barrels will eliminate these problems and increase the working life of both oil and components.
Fuel Conditioners
Techenomics supply OnSpec brand Fuel Conditioners that clean the entire fuel system; the engine, tanks, lines, injectors and the fuel itself. These fuel conditioners also reduce contaminants such as bacteria, water and fungus. OnSpec Fuel Conditioner treats all these problems in one easy step.
Fuel conditioners also create a higher combustion temperature. This increases fuel quality, resulting in an increase in power, cleaner emissions, and improved fuel consumption.
Magnetic Plug Inspection
Techenomics have been performing on-site magnetic plug inspections on equipment fleets, such as haul trucks, rear dumps, dozers and loaders, since 2002. These inspections identify iron wear generation.
The data and statistics that Techenomics collects provides Maintenance Planners with vital information so they can estimate the component life of wheel hubs, final drives and other planetary gearboxes. Accurate estimation of component life reduces costs by preventing unnecessary and unexpected failures.
Lubricant Dispensing
Techenomics manufactures and supplies a specialty range of oil products, lubricants and greases under the OnSpec and OnSpec Advantage brand names.
The Techenomics oil and lubricant product range has grown significantly over the past few years. It now supplies open-gear lubricants, anti-seize compounds, wire rope, and hydraulic, gear, rock drill and automotive oils.
Techenomics lubricant trucks are setup to deal with any on-site lubrication requirement for any equipment. With these trucks we can quickly and accurately dispense lubricants and avoid the contamination issues you would normally face.
Oil Analysis
Techenomics undertakes in-house oil and lubricant analysis in all their laboratories.
Our scientific testing of used oil and grease determines the wear characteristics of equipment, and measures the efficiency of the lubrication of internal components.
Regular analysis of used oil from engines, transmissions, hydraulic systems, compressors and other machinery allows component wear trends to be established. We use information from oil tests to identify any abnormal working conditions and pinpoint the likely causes, for which corrective actions can be planned.
Oil Analysis is an essential and cost effective preventative maintenance tool that contributes to significantly reducing ongoing maintenance costs on plant and equipment. Oil Analysis reduces equipment downtime, increases component life and eliminates unnecessary oil changes.
Contamination Control
Techenomics’ filtration services assist companies with the design and installation of a range of fuel and oil filtration solutions. Due to the complexity and cost of modern capital equipment, it is vital for companies to ensure that fuels and lubricants used in their operations are clean. Cleanliness can prevent or reduce component failure, reduce downtime and minimise the cost on repairs. Techenomics provides comprehensive condition monitoring and contamination control audits. These audits are used to develop and implement operational practises for delivering clean fuels and oils to production processes, as well as provide an environmentally friendly workplace.
Sample Extraction
Techenomics also provides an on-site sample extraction service. We collect samples and record all relevant information for oil monitoring and analysis.
Blue Oceans
Techenomics have developed BLUE OCEANS software for rapid online access to data analysis.
BLUE OCEANS manages the results of sample analysis for clients. With this software package, users can, in one place, easily track their past and present oil monitoring results. Trending tools are also available for ongoing condition monitoring, and oil and fuel analysis. Blue Oceans software also offers a flexible reporting format that can be modified to suit the specific needs of customers.
