A New and Holistic Approach to On-Site Oil Analysis
Spectro Scientific, one of the world’s largest suppliers of oil, fuel,
and processed-water analysis instrumentation and software, has
introduced TruVu
360™ Enterprise Fluid Intelligence Platform, an all-encompassing
web-based fluid analysis data management system. The new platform
simplifies and streamlines the fluid analysis process so high-quality
information and actionable intelligence facilitate rapid
decision-making. It closes the gap between maintenance recommendations
on the oil analysis report and the impact on continuous process
improvement. Visually and graphically, it provides a dashboard so
management can see the effectiveness of the program across the
enterprise in real time. TruVu 360 integrates Spectro’s MiniLab
on-site oil analysis hardware used in industrial applications in
manufacturing, mining, oil & gas and power generation.

Spectro Scientific president and CEO Brian Mitchell said, “TruVu 360
solutions represent a breakthrough in real-time fluid intelligence
through its seamless, enterprise-wide integration of hardware, software,
and services. The combination of immediate analysis data with
information management and diagnostic interpretation input as well as
performance measurement evaluations will boost users’ uptime and cost
savings and thereby maximize their operational efficiency and overall
profitability, preparing them for full participation in Industry 4.0.”
TruVu 360 addresses many of the current issues and frustrations with
current fluid analysis methodologies. For example, it can be difficult
to standardize workflows across an enterprise because of wide variations
in process times, different levels of laboratory expertise, and without
a tool to monitor and visualize the results globally. Perhaps most
concerning, it is virtually impossible to leverage any of the
improvements learned because of all the fragmented data gleaned from
many sources. Now, with TruVu 360 Enterprise Fluid Intelligence, these
challenges and more are solved with its standardized and adaptive “Rules
Engine” diagnostic process, its Enterprise Cloud Software access and its
“at a glance” device dashboard that reflects conditions and results in
real time. In essence, TruVu 360 enables users to track fluid condition
on an immediate basis to detect and ameliorate fluid contamination and
machine wear as well as manage proactive maintenance and fluid
replacement activities.
In operation, TruVu 360 is a web browser-based user interface that can
be installed on a local PC, central server and hosted in a public cloud.
There are three main user categories: The Enterprise user can access and
manage multiple sites and the corporate dashboard console. The Site user
has single site access and can be further restricted to certain areas of
the site and can manage the oil analysis process. The Site Reader also
has single site access and/or a read only access.
With regard to analytical hardware, the new program has been initially
introduced with its MiniLab on-site oil analysis lab for industrial
applications in manufacturing, mining, oil and gas and power generation.
When performing measurements on-site, the MiniLab cuts the wait time for
analysis results from days or weeks to minutes, compared to lab-based
fluid analysis, and enables users to make immediate maintenance
decisions that reduce unexpected downtime and costs and eliminate
potential catastrophic machine failures. The data produced also
facilitate efficient scheduling of proactive maintenance and fluid
renewal actions, improving utilization of resources and machine time.
Over the next 12 months, Spectro’s entire suite of fluid analysis
instruments will work in concert with its TruVu 360 Enterprise Fluid
Intelligence Platform.
