In today’s fast-paced industrial and automotive environments, ensuring the health and performance of your equipment is critical. One of the most effective preventive maintenance strategies is oil testing—an essential tool for identifying wear, contamination, and oil degradation before they lead to expensive breakdowns.
At Prism Calibration, we offer highly accurate and NABL-accredited oil testing services that help extend equipment life, enhance operational reliability, and reduce costly downtimes.
Oil testing or oil sample analysis refers to the scientific examination of used oil to determine its physical, chemical, and contamination status. It involves evaluating indicators like wear metals, viscosity, water content, acid number, fuel dilution, and more.
Why is this important?
Oil acts not just as a lubricant, but also as a coolant, contaminant remover, and a sealing agent. As oil ages or becomes contaminated, its ability to perform these roles diminishes, leading to:
Regular oil analysis allows maintenance teams to detect these problems early—often before they become visible or audible.
We offer a broad suite of oil lab testing services tailored to various sectors like manufacturing, power, transport, and construction.
Lubricants are the life-blood of rotating machinery. Our tests include:
Flash & Fire Point – Critical for evaluating safety and combustion risk.
These parameters help assess oil degradation and contamination risks that could reduce equipment life or lead to unscheduled shutdowns.
Using spectrometric analysis, we detect traces of metals like:
These trace metals act as fingerprints of component degradation and allow predictive maintenance planning.
Cleanliness is essential, especially in systems with tight clearances like hydraulics and compressors. Even microscopic contamination can accelerate wear.
Transformer oil (insulating oil) is essential for electrical insulation and cooling. We offer full transformer oil analysis, including:
Our NABL recognition makes these tests credible for regulatory and audit requirements.

Accidental oil leaks or spills can cause long-term environmental damage. Soil testing for oil contamination is crucial in:
At Prism Calibration, our environmental oil testing includes TPH (Total Petroleum Hydrocarbon) detection, BTEX analysis, and heavy metal profiling—ensuring your site meets all environmental and government regulations.
When it comes to lab testing, quality assurance is critical. NABL (National Accreditation Board for Testing and Calibration Laboratories) certification guarantees that:
Choosing a NABL-accredited oil testing laboratory near me like Prism Calibration ensures that your data is not only accurate—but officially recognized and reliable. We are proud to mention that Prism Calibration’s NABL accreditation covers a wide range of oil testing parameters, offering our clients unmatched reliability and confidence.
Getting your oil tested is a simple but powerful process:
Use our clean, tamper-proof sample containers to collect oil directly from machinery while it’s warm and running. Sampling technique is crucial for accurate results.
Your sample is delivered to our NABL-certified lab. Each sample is coded and tested using ASTM/DIN/ISO standards.
Our analysts evaluate your results against wear limits and contamination thresholds. We highlight deviations and probable root causes.
You receive a detailed, easy-to-understand digital report that outlines the oil’s condition, recommended actions, and urgency levels.
Need help with the findings? Our experts are ready to interpret the results and assist you in building predictive maintenance strategies.
When you choose Prism Calibration, you get more than a test—you get a partner committed to reliability, safety, and cost-efficiency.
