Description
OIL TESTING & MONITORING Appearance: • User visual check – quick and efficient. • Frequency: at least weekly. • Appearance should be “clean and bright”. • Haziness indicates > 100 ppm water. • Turbine oils often darken slowly over years of service, however, rapid changes in colour may be due to contamination or accelerated degradation and should be investigated. ISO Particle Count: ISO 11500 and 4406 • Frequency: Every 1 – 3 months. • Warning limit: > 18/16/13. • Quantifies particles produced by wear or contamination. • Once present, particles contribute to accelerated wear. • A sudden increase of = 2 codes is cause for concern. • Strong correlation between lower ISO code and increased equipment reliability and lifetime.
