TOPIC:
A Paradigm Shift In Gas Turbine Lubricant Maintenance
PRESENTERS:
Peter Dufresne, COO & VP, EPT Clean Oil
DESCRIPTION:
While turbine oil maintenance is recognized as being essential, many programs lack the basic tools to maintain their lubricants within specification. Existing lubricant maintenance is typically reactive in nature and does not target the root cause of many lubricant and mechanical failures: varnish.
This presentation considers a fundamental change in lubricant maintenance focused on improving performance and eliminating common issues for turbine owners. Turbine lubricant maintenance is essential to ensure the performance and reliability of critical rotating equipment. Turbine oil maintenance does not need to be challenging or complex; it simply needs to be effective. If you eliminate the cause of lubricant failures, asset reliability is assured and fluid operating life is extended. If maintenance accomplished both of these, cost savings are exponential.
Treat your turbine lubricant as an asset, not a consumable, and learn how to manage that asset with the right tools.
