Détails

1.1 This test method describes a means for determining the amount of fuel dilution present in an in-service lubricant. This is achieved by drawing into a surface acoustic wave (SAW) sensor vapor from the lubricant. Fuel vapor will be absorbed by the SAW sensor’s polymer coating. The amount of absorbance is then related to fuel content in the lubricant.

1.2 The range of fuel dilution capable of being measured by the test method is from 0.1?% to 10.0?% by mass fuel dilution.

1.3 This test method is specifically tailored to determining the fuel dilution of in-service lubricants, including newly utilized lubricants. The method is applicable to contamination with diesel, gasoline, and jet fuels.

1.4 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as standard. No other units of measurement are included in this standard.

1.5 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety, health, and environmental practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use. See Section 9.

1.6 This international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for the Development of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee.


Significance and Use:

5.1 This test method provides a means for a reliable field determination of fuel dilution that is quick and preparation-free. Results are obtained in approximately 1?min. Such a method is used, for example, at remote railroad depots where it is impractical to carry out a standard laboratory method for determination of fuel dilution, such as described in Test Method D7593, but it is a critical need to determine if fuel has contaminated the lubricant. If fuel has contaminated the lubricant, this is significantly detrimental to the machinery and it is typically serviced immediately. Further, the fuel can ignite at the high temperatures encountered in machinery lubricant paths.
