Abstract

In one embodiment, a method is provided for performing a fluid process within a machine having a fluid system including at least two reservoirs of different types of fluids. The method includes the steps of identifying a first reservoir for use in performing a fluid process; (a) adjusting a configuration of a valve system operatively coupled to the fluid system to permit a fluid evacuation process to be performed for the reservoir, (b) subsequently performing the fluid evacuation process for the reservoir, (c) subsequently adjusting the configuration of the valve system to permit a fluid refill process to be performed for the reservoir, (d) subsequently performing the fluid refill process for the reservoir; and, subsequently identifying an additional reservoir and performing at least one of the steps (a), (b), (c) and (d) for the additional reservoir, wherein the first reservoir includes a fluid of a type which is different from a type of a fluid of the additional reservoir. Various system and computer-readable media embodiments are also provided.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to methods and systems for performing, monitoring and analyzing multi-way machine fluid processing. Background technique [0002] Machines such as high capacity diesel engine systems used in conjunction with construction equipment, earth moving equipment, transportation equipment (eg, locomotives), etc., often operate under adverse operating conditions. The typical operating conditions of the aforementioned equipment require extensive maintenance, repair and overhaul work in order to maintain the equipment including the engine system and its components. Due to adverse equipment operating conditions, some components wear out long before the end of their expected service life. Such component wear and tear occurs despite efforts to ensure proper component installation and maintenance, including, for example, equipment replenishment and periodic maintenance of the lubricating oil system. For example, due to various factors i...
