Achieving Effective Contamination Control without Compromising Hydraulic Component Reliability
While it is widely known that particles reduce the service life of hydraulic components, the notion that a hydraulic system can have too many filters is rarely considered. Some filters do more harm than good...
 
A New Method for Predicting a Gas Engine Oil Remaining Useful Life
A combination of FT-IR analyses and chemometrics has been developed to predict the Base Number (BN) of gas engine oils in order to assess the oil aging. It achieves similar results to those obtained with standard lab methods (electrochemical methods...).
 
Chapter 00. Lubrication for Industry
Lubrication for Industry is written for oilers, lubricators, millwrights, mechanics, electricians....
 
Controlling Additive Depletion: What Works and Why
Additives are designed into lubrication and hydraulic oils to minimize the rate of wear on costly manufacturing equipment. The failure of oil to provide the suitable level of protection can result in excessive wear and maintenance costs.
 
Degradation Mechanisms Leading to Sludge and Varnish in Modern Turbine Oil Formulations
In recent years, there has been an unusually large number of reported cases associated with sludge and varnish formation in turbine-generator and compressor applications using...
 
Description of Lubricating Oil Test with Pin-on-Disk Tribometer
The pin-on-disk tribometer is a versatile laboratory apparatus for measuring the friction and wear properties of combinations of metals and lubricants under selected conditions of load, speed and temperature. The results provide an indication of the...
 
Filtration Basics
One of the areas in which many engineers struggle with the concept of filtration is in regard to how ....
 
LuBASE
Through this service, the details of more than 3000 lubricants used in bearing applications are provided.
 
Lubricants 101 - Fundamentals of Lubrication
Billions of dollars are spent each year to repair damage from mechanical wear in U.S. factories caused by surface degradation, including mechanical wear and fatigue.
 
Lubricant Specifications – What They Are and What They Are Not….
Most industrial oils only need to meet a specific set of physical and performance criteria. The oil companies do not divulge what base oils or additives they used to meet the criteria. This has led to ...
