Coolant Health Testing for Data Centers: 5 Reasons it’s Important

Per the experts at Eurofins TestOil, coolant health testing for data centers is critical for ensuring data center reliability, efficiency, and hardware longevity. Here are five key considerations: Thermal Conductivity is Imperative: The coolant's ability to transfer heat efficiently is crucial. It must have high thermal conductivity to pull heat away from components that tend…

Cold Weather Diesel Fuel Testing: Key Tests Every Fleet Owner Should Schedule

As temperatures start to drop, fleet managers schedule diesel fuel testing as part of their fall preventive maintenance routine. They know that cold weather can turn even high-quality diesel into a liability if it’s not properly conditioned. In essence, testing in advance ensures smooth, reliable operation all winter long.                 Diesel contains paraffin wax that…

RPVOT (ASTM D2272): Why Oxidation Stability Testing Matters More Than Ever

The Rotating Pressure Vessel Oxidation Test (RPVOT) is a standardized ASTM method (ASTM D2272) used to determine a lubricant’s oxidation stability. It reliably predicts how long a lubricant can perform effectively before oxidation-related degradation (such as sludge, varnish, and acid formation) begins. This is a key test for: Power generation plants (gas, steam, and hydro…

Data Center Coolant Testing Ensures Reliable, Efficient Operations

Coolants maintain optimal operating temperatures in high-performance servers and networking equipment. Over time, however, they can degrade due to contamination, chemical breakdown, or microbial growth—leading to corrosion, scaling, and reduced heat-transfer efficiency.                 In particular, blockage in the narrow tubes that run between heat transfer plates can severely compromise thermal efficiency. These tubes are designed…

Material Identification Analysis Leads to Data-Driven Decisions

Material Identification Analysis is a critical tool for nearly all industries, especially power generation, oil and gas, aerospace and defense, automotive and transportation, and manufacturing. Its value is especially clear when unexpected contaminants appear in oil and the cause is not obvious. As a result, standard fluid testing may not be able to specify the problem.
