Truck 2-173 - Front Diesel Engine
Graphic Analysis
Line Indicates Installation of Conserver™ H2 Unit
|
|
|
|
Explanation
The Iron level has increased slightly since the engine was
first placed in service in 2007. The maintenance manager indicated that this may
be a result of low-lubricant fuel used in the vehicle. A change in the type of
fuel may result in lower levels. All readings throughout the period are in the
normal range. The haul road across the North Slope of Alaska where the test
truck operated consists of mainly mud, rocks, and pot holes in the summer. Dust
in the air likely adds to ring wear and iron levels. There is no indication of
engine wear during the testing period.

|
|
Explanation
The aluminum levels measured in the samples have been very
consistent and well with in the normal range. There is no indication of engine
wear during the testing period.
|
|
|
|
|
Explanation
The test results consistently reported no corrective
action required. It had been determined by the user and manufacturer that the
elevated copper levels were caused by leaching of cooler core and not engine
wear. The excess copper has been removed by the purification system and all
recent tests have been in the normal range. There is no indication of engine
wear during the testing period.

|
|
Explanation
The lead level was remained consistent and in the normal
range throughout the period. There is no indication of engine wear during the
testing period.
|
|
|
|
|
Explanation
After the initial silicon was filtered from the oil, the
levels have remained within the required levels. The recent increase in tested
level will be watched. There is no indication of engine wear during the testing
period.

|
|
Explanation
Total Base Number (TBN) measures the
amount of active additive left in a sample of oil. The TBN is useful for people
who want to extend their oil usage far beyond the normal range. These levels
reduced after the Conserve H2 unit was installed. The levels have consistently
measured in the normal range. There is no indication of engine wear during the
testing period. Ph levels are balanced at 7.
