EUROLAB, with its state-of-the-art accredited laboratories and expert team, provides precise and fast testing services within the scope of ASTM D2070 testing. This standard is primarily designed to evaluate the thermal stability of hydrocarbon-based hydraulic oils, but oxidation may occur during testing.
Values stated in SI units will be accepted as standard. No other units of measurement are included in this standard.
This standard does not purport to address all, if any, safety concerns associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and to determine the applicability of regulatory restrictions prior to use.
A beaker containing test oil, copper and iron rods is placed on an aluminum block in an electric gravity convection oven for 135 hours at a test temperature of 168°C. At the end of the test, the copper and steel rods are visually graded for color change and analyzed for the amount of oil and sludge.
Thermal stability characterizes changes in physical and chemical properties of an oil that can adversely affect its lubricating performance. This test method evaluates the thermal stability of a hydraulic oil in the presence of copper and steel at 135°C. Bar colors are evaluation criteria. Sludge values are reported for informational purposes. The test has no affiliation with field service.
This international standard has been developed in accordance with internationally accepted principles on standardization set out in the Resolution on Principles for the Development of International Standards, Guidelines and Recommendations published by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee.
