Did you know… that improper viscosity can irreversibly damage your equipment?

11 / 12 / 2025

Viscosity is one of the most critical properties of a lubricant. If the oil is too fluid, it no longer ensures proper contact between metal surfaces; if too thick, it hampers system performance and causes excessive energy consumption.

Improper viscosity can lead to:

  • Accelerated wear of mechanical parts
  • Overheating of components
  • Loss of energy efficiency
  • And ultimately, costly breakdowns

At GESERCO, we help you monitor this essential parameter directly on-site with tools like the ViscoTest™ and Viscobille™, designed for simple, fast, and reliable diagnostics.

Regular viscosity checks mean optimized maintenance and lasting performance for your installations.
