Description
While turbine oil maintenance is recognized as being essential, many
programs lack the basic information and tools to maintain their lubricants
within specification. Existing lubricant
maintenance is typically reactive, uses outdated filtration technology and does
not target the root cause of most lubricant and mechanical failures: varnish.
This presentation introduces varnish and discusses lubricant chemistry
management: a modern, sustainable approach to turbine oil maintenance that
eliminates the possibility of varnish-related failures. Lubricant chemistry management offers users technical,
cost and environmental advantages to different strategies which may be
competitive or complimentary. Unlike
traditional approaches that result in varnish accumulation and deteriorating
oil quality over time, this approach maintains lubricant quality in ideal condition
from day 1, improving performance and eliminating common issues. By doing so, lubricant chemistry management
maximizes equipment performance, increases ROI, improves maintenance predictability
and reduces the impact of power generation, allowing for more sustainable
turbine operation.
