We perform lubricants quality testing by ASTM D4898 to measure the particulate contamination in hydraulic fluids by filtration. This test method indicates and measures the amount of insoluble contamination in hydraulic fluids. Minimizing the levels of insoluble contamination in hydraulic fluids is essential for the satisfactory performance and long life of equipment. Insoluble contamination can not only plug filters but can also damage functional system components, resulting in wear and eventual system failure.
Sample quantity required: 1 liter (1000 ml)
We also perform particulate contamination testing by Hach 8160, FTM 3012, ISO 4406, NAS 1638, FTM 3010, FTM 3009, ASTM D6217, ASTM D4176, ASTM D5452, ASTM D2276, FTM 3013. These different test methods use different instruments or procedures or are used for certain sample types. Click on the test method number to learn more about each test.
