Hydraulic Oil Analysis
The condition of hydraulic fluid is critical to the performance of machinery. In fact, 80% of component failures are attributed to system contamination.

An Industry-leading Suite of Fluid Care Services
The health of hydraulic fluid is paramount to the performance, efficiency, and reliability of machinery that it operates within. In fact, 80% of component failure is due to system contamination. Issues that come with contamination can be avoided with a proactive approach to monitoring contaminant levels and identifying opportunities to improve how fluids are purchased, stored, handled and used.
We are an established partner of HYDAC, the name intrinsically associated with unparalleled laboratory testing and analysis for lubricants. As part of our partnership, we can offer a full suite of fluid care services that help businesses to keep their operations free from contamination problems.
Why Choose HAYLEY DEXIS for Hydraulic Oil Analysis Services?
As an approved fluid care partner, HAYLEY DEXIS works in partnership with HYDAC to provide a comprehensive suite of fluid care services under the HYDAC “Fluid Care Laboratory Services” name.
Microscopic contamination analysis, particle distribution measurement, water content analysis, conductivity testing, and ICP (elemental analysis), viscosity analysis, MPC (varnish) analysis, and TAN (total acid number) analysis are the most common testing/analysis services that we offer. However, our services are not limited to these alone
All of our tests are available either individually or as a ‘pick and mix’ package. This ensures our offering is always customisable around your requirements.
Our dedicated fluid care response vehicle is kitted-out with the equipment necessary to provide oil testing and analysis services anywhere in the UK. The vehicle also supports the delivery of our hydraulic hose integrity programme.
All tests are carried-out in accordance with their associated standards. For example, microscopic contamination analysis, examining the type and volume of solid particulate matter in hydraulic oil under a microscope, is completed to ISO 4406.
With HYDAC’s LabPortal platform, results are accessible online from anywhere in the world.
Test results can help you to plot an effective preventative maintenance plan for your hydraulic fluid and the machinery it effects on your site, keeping the threat of mechanical failure at bay.
By identifying contamination in your fluids, action can be taken to prevent future issues arising. Stoppages to production and operational downtime can be extremely costly for businesses, so the focus of our oil testing services is to assist you with avoiding this.
Following the generation of test results, several recommendations are made. Any requirements for either lubrication or filtration products can be met by unrivalled HAYLEY DEXIS stock.
