Introduction 

Creating an effective lubrication program consists of many parts from selecting the appropriate equipment to test to selecting the right parameters to test on the oil.

While these are both important steps not be overlooked, the most daunting part tends to be setting alarm limits on equipment. The challenges include setting limits too conservatively, increasing the chances too many components alarm. This can leave an overwhelming number of work orders and likely stretch the budget to maintain the strict levels. On the other hand, setting alarms too loosely leaves a greater risk of missing a critical alarm and can pose a safety risk.
