Compliance Standards
ASTM D2272, ASTM D2112, IP 229
Purpose
These methods used to evaluate the oxidation stability of new and in service engine, turbine and inhibited mineral insulating oils in the presence of water and a copper catalyst coil at 150°C as per ASTM D2272 and at 140 °C test temperature as per ASTM D2112. The method is applicable to determine the oxidation stability of both, steam turbine oil and inhibited mineral insulating oil as per the respective standards mentioned above.
Summary of test method
The test oil, water, and copper catalyst coil, contained in a covered glass container, are placed in a vessel equipped with a pressure gauge. The vessel is charged with oxygen to a gauge pressure of 620 kPa (90 psi, 6.2 bar), placed in a constant temperature oil bath set at 150 °C, and rotated axially at 100 rpm at an angel of 30° from the horizontal. The time for oil to react with given volume of oxygen is measured; completion of the test is indicated by a specific drop in pressure. The number of minutes required to reach a specific drop in gauge pressure is the oxidation stability of the test sample.
Brief construction details
Following parts and accessories will be provided to conduct the entire test process
(1) Temperature controlled Heating Bath
(2) Rotating Pressure Vessel (Oxidation Vessels)
(3) Glass Sample Container, Catalyst Coil
(4) Thermometer
IP 37C/ASTM 96C sludge test thermometer having a range from 144 to 156 °C graduated in 0.2 °C intervals
(5) Recording Pressure Mechanism
Pressure recording mechanism consists of high quality Electronic pressure transducers, power source, mounting equipment, data recorder cum controller (Touch screen HMI), connecting cables and digital software. The rotary transducer couplings are mounted directly on the vessel stem in place of the standard mechanical pressure recorders. The output signal from the transducer is recorded & stored in HMI Controller. Complete system is designed such that operation of the unit will automatically be cutoff, when the pressure will be dropped by 25 psi from the originally established pressure Plateu.
(6) Salient features of Touch Screen Controller / Recorder
