Castrol SmartOil
Unlock real-time neat oil insights with Castrol SmartOil. Our sensor-driven, industrial lubrication service – designed to manage fluid sampling and drive informed maintenance decisions.
A smart solution for oil condition monitoring
Did you know, poor lubrication practices can cause up to 70% of equipment failures?* With traditional manual testing often being infrequent, operational issues are typically identified after they’ve already caused costly damage.
Castrol SmartOil is a cutting-edge sensor solution designed to continuously monitor the condition of neat oils. Delivering invaluable insights that allow operators to identify potential issues early. This enables faster, more informed, and more reliable decisions.
Developed using advanced technologies such as mid-infrared spectroscopy, Castrol SmartOil provides high-quality, real-time data across a wide range of critical parameters. These include oil temperature, oxidation, total acid number (TAN), water content, and viscosity.
Customers leveraging Castrol's Intelligent Lubrication Solutions are seeing measurable impact:
A U.S. steel manufacturer avoided critical gearbox damage by detecting water ingress early – saving $104,200 and achieving ROI in just 1.5 months. This success has since been repeated four times across similar systems, proving the consistent value of our solutions.
Integrated intelligence
Castrol SmartOil is available with either a pump or valve configuration– supporting a broad range of applications and operations. Our modular design allows easy integration of additional sensors, tailored to your operational requirements.
For operations that demand even greater insight, Castrol SmartOil offers an optional measurement of wear debris – for ferrous only, or both ferrous and non-ferrous. This helps provide a clearer picture of equipment health and potential failure influences.
Insight when it matters most
From hydraulic and circulating systems to gear and engine oils, Castrol SmartOil helps turn data into operational advantage – so you can protect assets, improve uptime, and drive performance where it counts. For further fluid insights, use Castrol SmartMonitor to help you spot issues early and plan maintenance periods with greater precision.
