Valve Performance Testing & Clean Oil

Valve Performance Testing & Clean Oil

The Application A hydraulic valve manufacturer required pristine fluid (< 14/12/9) to test flow across an 80 micron orifice on their test stand. Gross amounts of contamination in the fluid would skew the test results, invalidating any data collected. The system held 100 l (26.4 gal) of ISO VG 32 fluid with a flow rate of 25 lpm (6.6 gpm). The Problem Through observing the manufacturer’s sampling practices, discussing fluid handling best practi
