Abstrakt:
The aim of this article is to estimate system soft failure occurrence and residual technical life in order to optimise firmly planned preventive maintenance. To do this, selected data oil analysis from oil field data are analysed. The importance of using proper oil analysis is not always entirely clear to all users. There is a strategy that shows when it is necessary to change the oil. The oil might be used to indicate when and where the failure occurs in a vehicle. In other words, an oil analysis can reduce the severity of failures. Most often, oil analysis program combines the continuous attention to oil and the vehicles condition. By combining the instrumental methods of tribotechnical diagnostics (FTIR spectrometry, atomic emission spectrometry) it was found that engine oil change intervals should be optimized to maximize the efficiency of engines and extend their lifetime.
