eralab OCM
The solution for oil condition monitoring.
eralab OCM is a complete oil analysis platform which supports companies in predictive and proactive maintenance strategies by providing valuable insights into equipment health and lubricant condition. This is done by analyzing and evaluating the three critical oil condition categories contamination, wear and oil composition. Using eralab OCM reduces expensive down times as well as lube oil changes and significantly extends machine lifetime.
The Key to Machine Health
Proper lubrication is essential for the function and longevity of any machine. To determine whether your oil still performs according to specifications, several critical key oil condition categories must be monitored. These categories are:
- Contamination
Detects the quantity of particles and its origin, water, fuel, or other impurities compromising oil quality. - Wear
Indicates early signs of component degradation in gear boxes, bearings, pistons, etc. through analyzing metallic debris. - Oil Composition
Detection of oil composition changes even if the oil looks “clean”, monitoring of viscosity, acidity, oxidation, and additive levels, etc. and helps to evaluate oil health and operational conditions.
Changes to any of these categories enable maintenance teams to identify early problems, take immediate action and prevent serious damage or unexpected downtime.
eralab OCM Pro
eralab OCM Pro provides a comprehensive OCM solution, monitoring all three critical categories like contamination, wear and oil composition.
eralab OCM Pro is tailored to give you clear answers to key questions such as:
- Is any part of my machine beginning to fail based on the wear metals found?
- Are there any signs of wrong operation conditions?
- What is the chemistry of wear and contamination?
- Did I use the correct oil when refilling?
- Has the composition of the oil changed?
- Is my oil clean enough for operation?
- Is my oil wet?
After taking four simple measurements, the data is sent to the erasoft OCM. The software then analyses the results, triggers alarms and warnings based on the condition of the oil and generates a report on its health as well as, providing recommended maintenance actions for the maintenance team.
eralab OCM Pro’s extensive analysis of the oil reduces risk of unplanned downtime, extends oil drain intervals and maximizes machine lifetime as well as enables optimization of local maintenance plans.

eralab OCM Basic
eralab OCM Basic provides an effective OCM solution that is focused on two oil condition categories: contamination and oil composition. This package is particularly well-suited for applications where wear monitoring is not a primary concern.
eralab OCM Basic is tailored to give you clear answers to key questions such as:
- Did I use the correct oil when refilling?
- Are there any signs of wrong operation conditions?
- Has the composition of the oil changed?
- Is my oil clean enough for operation?
- Is my oil wet?
Similar to eralab OCM Pro, eralab OCM Basic only requires three simple measurements before generating a report on oil health, including all the relevant results and recommended maintenance actions. It is therefore the perfect starting point for oil condition monitoring, giving you the essential tools to avoid unplanned downtime and to extend drain intervals.
