Meet the Team at MRG Labs
Rich Wurzbach – CLS
President
Rich Wurzbach has 25 years of experience in the development of Condition Based Maintenance programs and the applications of diagnostic technologies for industrial equipment. His expertise lies in the applications of Infrared Thermography, Lubricant Analysis, Airborne Ultrasound and the integration of various diagnostic technologies for equipment assessment.
Rich’s past experience includes work at the Three Mile Island, Limerick, and Peach Bottom Nuclear Plants. He has also made technical presentations at the American Wind Energy Association and Wind Energy Update conferences in the US. He has served on two research teams in Denmark studying lubrication and sampling practices for off-shore wind turbine components, and worked alongside employees of Vattenfall, DONG Energy, Statkraft, and Aalborg University to research, publish and present main and pitch bearing sampling best-practice procedures at international conferences in Europe.
Rich is certified by the International Council on Machinery Lubrication (ICML) as a Machine Lubrication Technician (MLT-II), Machinery Lubricant Analyst (MLA-II), and Laboratory Lubricant Analyst (LLA-II). He is ASNT Level III in PdM-Infrared and Thermal Testing.
Rich was responsible for the design and development of the Peach Bottom Oil Analysis Laboratory, and designed numerous innovative products to improve the practice of oil sampling and analysis. He helped to advance the ASTM Standard Practice for Obtaining In-Service Samples of Lubricating Grease (D7718). He authored the Electric Power Research Institute’s report “Effective Grease Practices” and was a co-author of the EPRI Report, “Lube Oil PdM, Handling, and Quality Assurance Guideline”. He is on the AWEA CBM Committee that has developed Recommended Practice guidelines (RP-812 through 815) for Wind Turbine Operations and Maintenance. He has presented and published over 50 scientific papers.
Rich holds a Bachelor’s Degree in Chemistry from Millersville (PA) University, 1988.
