Lubricant Analysis Technologies - part 2

Analysis for Turbine Oils

Oxidative Resistance

  • Measured by RPVOT and determined by comparing result to new oil.

    • Low Temp Antioxidant

  • Measured by RULER and determined by comparing result to new oil.

    • High-Temp Antioxidants

  • Measured by RULER and determined by comparing result to new oil.

    • Varnish Potential Rating

  • Determined by Quantitative Spectrophotometer Analysis (QSASM)

    • Particulate

  • Determined by NAS 1638 Classification and ISO Particle Count

    Acid Number

  • Determined by comparing to new oil

    • Molecular Changes

  • Determined by FTIR with concentrations of antioxidants and oxidation products

    • Contamination

  • Determined by ICP of wear metals, water
