ICML 55.2 – Guideline for the Optimized Lubrication of Mechanical Physical Assets

Book excerpt: ICML 55.2 is part of a series of standards documents that represent the ICML 55® International Lubrication Standard. ICML 55.2 is designed to take an in-depth look at the twelve Lubrication Management Plans/Auditable Elements outlined in ICML 55.1, to illustrate the value of each element (the Why?), and provide the reader with many "how to" examples. Included are many punch lists of typical requirements an auditor would look for to prove compliance readiness for certification purposes. Even if certification is not the goal, ICML 55.2 can be used as a practical "blueprint" manual for implementing a best practice lubrication management program, as well as a reference and study guide for many of the individual certifications offered by the ICML. ICML 55.2 is intended for use in association with ICML 55.0, Optimized Lubrication of Mechanical Physical Assets Overview, ICML 55.1, Requirements for the Optimized Lubrication of Mechanical Physical Assets, and ICML 55.3, Auditors’ Standard Practice and Policies Manual.
