METHODS OF TESTING FILTER PERFORMANCE & CHARACTERISTICS OF SOME TYPES OF FILTERS

Abstract

Wear can be minimised by good lubrication. We have travelled far since lubrication meant just “oil”; refining processes have improved, oils are more “oily”, and additives reduce the effects of gums, oxidation, acid formation, etc., over a useful service life. Extreme pressure agents and detergents allow operation under conditions of load and temperature not possible with straight oils. Yet all these advances count for little, unless abrasives are excluded.
