Municipalities

Cities and towns are responsible to maintain a large amount of mobile equipment and fixed plant, such as water supply, power generation and wastewater treatment facilities. Oil analysis on this critical equipment as part of a robust maintenance program is a very cost effective way of failure avoidance. Additionally, greater emphasis on environmental conservation and a focus on delivering critical services while operating under reduced budgets leads municipalities to activate these programs. Spectro oil analysis solutions are used by many municipalities to extend vehicle drain intervals, monitor treatment plant gearboxes and backup diesel generators, and avoid costly lubrication mixups.

Examples of equipment monitored:

• Emergency Backup generators
• Wastewater pumps and gearboxes
• Pump station air compressors
• City vehicles such as police, fire and public works vehicles
• Power plants
