Lubricant Analysis Category 2 aims to equip candidates with the skills and knowledge required to establish, implement and manage a lubrication programme, by having a good understanding of lubrication best practices and the specialised testing required for specific lubricants.

The course is ideal if you are responsible for making informed lubrication decisions at your organisation. As well as covering the fundamentals, candidates will learn advanced diagnostic and troubleshooting techniques, the contamination effects on machinery, the integration of lubrication with other CBM technologies, and much more.

This course is based on the ISO 18436-4 certification program for lubricant analysis category 2. The course runs over four days with an additional half day for review and optional BINDT PCN certification exam.

As an Approved Training Organisation (ATO), registered by the British Institute of Non-Destructive Testing (BINDT), our vibration and lubrication courses are based on a third party condition monitoring training certification scheme which is aligned with ISO 18436 standards.

BINDT is an accredited certifying body in accordance with ISO/IEC 17024 offering personnel certification against criteria set out in international and European standards through the Personal Certification in Non-Destructive Testing (PCN) Certification Scheme.

One of the many benefits of achieving PCN certification is that successful candidates will gain a recognised qualification, which enhances career prospects and provides a certificate of competence.

You will undergo a series of formative assessments throughout the duration of the course. Towards the end of the course, there will be an assessment in the form of a written exam. Candidates will be expected to achieve a +70% overall score in order to pass.

The BINDT PCN certification examination can be taken immediately after the successful completion of the course.
