EUROLAB, with its state-of-the-art accredited laboratories and expert team, provides precise and fast testing services within the scope of FED-STD-791 testing. This test method standard consists of standard test methods for sampling, inspection and testing of lubricants, liquid fuels and related products.
The test methods of this standard, when specified in a specification, form an integral part of that specification. Such citation, although reference to the base number of a method, is intended to apply to the most recent version of the method as revised and as amended by subsequent notices of changes to this standard.
The standard covers a wide range of products, including engine oils, hydraulic fluids, gear oils, turbine oils and fuel oils. It provides test methods to evaluate the various properties of these products, including:
Viscosity: This is a measure of a fluid's resistance to flowing and is an important property for lubricants and fuels. FED-STD-791 provides a variety of test methods for measuring viscosity, including kinematic viscosity testing and Saybolt viscosity testing.
Flash Point: This is the temperature at which a fuel or lubricant will produce enough vapor to ignite in the presence of an ignition source. FED-STD-791 provides a variety of test methods for measuring flash point, including the Cleveland open cup test and the Pensky-Martens closed cup test.
Pour Point: This is the lowest temperature at which a liquid will flow under certain conditions. FED-STD-791 provides a test method for measuring the yield point.
Acid Number: This is a measure of the acidity of a liquid and may indicate the presence of contaminants or degradation products. FED-STD-791 provides a test method for measuring the acid number.
Oxidation Stability: This is a measure of a liquid's resistance to oxidation, which can cause deterioration and reduce performance. FED-STD-791 provides a test method for measuring oxidation stability.
Water Content: This is a measure of the amount of water in a liquid that can cause corrosion and other problems. FED-STD-791 provides a test method for measuring water content.
In addition to these features, FED-STD-791 also provides test methods to evaluate other properties such as foam stability, rust protection, and thermal stability. The standard specifies the test conditions and procedures for each test method, as well as the acceptance criteria that must be met for the product to pass the test.
Overall, the FED-STD-791 is an important resource for the lubricants, liquid fuels and related products industry, providing standardized test methods and criteria for evaluating the quality and performance of these products.
