Embodiment Construction

[0036]As noted above, the subject matter disclosed in this specification relates to engine oils. In particular, the subject matter disclosed in this specification relates to lubricating oils and / or working fluids in industrial machinery such as compressors, presses, hydraulic drills, drills, indicators, and / or cutting machinery.

[0037] As stated in this specification, it can be difficult to effectively monitor the quality of oil in machinery, thus potentially leading to unintended dips in oil quality and ultimately damage to machinery that relies on this oil for lubrication.

[0038] In contrast to conventional approaches, various embodiments of the present invention include systems, computer program products, and related methods that use test data extracted from the oil to analyze the oil (eg, for lubricating a machine or as a working fluid for a machine). In particular embodiments, a system includes at least one computing device configured to monitor engine oil by performi...

Abstract

Various embodiments of the invention include a system having: at least one computing device at least one computing device configured to monitor a machine oil by performing actions including: determining an initial ideal remaining life for the machine oil; determining a temperature-based remaining life for the machine oil based upon a temperature measurement of the machine oil; calculating a contamination factor of the machine oil based upon a contamination sample of the machine oil; determining an updated ideal life remaining for the machine oil based upon the contamination factor, the initial ideal remaining life, and the temperature-based remaining life; and determining an actual life remaining for the machine oil based upon the updated ideal life remaining and a life loss factor.
