4.3 Measuring

For optimum results make sure you use a representative oil sample and that

its temperature is not higher than 40 °C (100 °F). Place enough oil in the

sensor to fully cover the sensor surface. Press the test button and keep it

depressed for 10 seconds or until the segments have stopped moving around

the display (the display will flash to show the unit is testing). The result will

remain on the display when the button is released until the next test is carried

out.

To test again, clean out the sensor well with a clean rag or tissue. Refill the

sensor well and press the test button again. A new reading will appear on the

display.

4.4 Interpretation of the reading

Users should use the BALTECH OA-5000 to monitor the change in the oils

properties and build up a picture of oil degradation based on their experience

and own operating criteria.

Individual thresholds of acceptability can be marked on the unit's scale. The

red and green areas are designed as an indicator of the condition of an

engine oil.

Within the green band the oil is deemed acceptable and within the red area

the oil should be changed and checked again after a short running period to

ensure no mechanical problems are present.
