19、e: (1)awell-designed hydraulic system, (2) the use of a good fluid, and(3) a maintenance program including proper filtration methodsto ensure that the fluid is free of contaminants. These prereq-uisites are meaningless unless the hydraulic system is initiallycleaned to a level that will prevent comp

20、onent damage oninitial start up or when debris may be dislodged by any systemupset.4.2 The cleaning and flushing of both new and used systemsare accomplished by essentially the same procedure. In newsystems, the emphasis is on the removal of contaminantsintroduced during the manufacture, storage, fi

21、eld fabrication,and installation. In used systems, the emphasis is on theremoval of contaminants that are generated during operations,from failures that occur during operation; or contaminantsintroduced during overhaul.4.3 While the flushing and cleaning philosophies stated inthis practice are appli

22、cable to all primary and servo hydraulicsystems, the equipment specified herein does not apply tocompact systems that use relatively small volumes of fluidunless they are servo systems where it is economically justi-fied.4.4 It should be emphasized that the established proceduresto be followed for f

23、lushing and cleaning the hydraulic systemsshould be accomplished through the cooperative efforts andagreement of the equipment manufacturer, the installer, theoperator, and the fluid supplier. No phase of these proceduresshould be undertaken without a thorough understanding of thepossible effects of

24、 improper system preparation. The installa-tion and cleaning and flushing of the equipment should not beentrusted to persons lacking in experience.5. Types of Contamination5.1 GeneralHydraulic systems can become contaminatedfrom a variety of sources. Generally, there are five categories ofcontaminat

25、ion: (1) water, (2) fluid soluble material, (3) fluidinsoluble material, (4) erroneous fluid additions, and (5)hydraulic fluid deterioration. Properly designed systems cannormally control water and insoluble contaminants; however,when it is necessary to remove soluble contaminants, a fluidchange and

26、 flush are required.5.2 WaterWater is almost always present in hydraulicfluids. It may be present in solution or in a free or emulsifiedform. Water can exist in solution at varying concentrationsdepending on the nature of the fluid, the temperature, and soforth. For example, hydraulic fluid may hold

27、 50 ppm of waterat 21C (70F) and 250 ppm at 71C (160F). The water insolution has no adverse effect on lubricating properties of thefluid and causes no corrosion; however, when fluid passesthrough a cooler some water may come out of solution andbecome free water in the form of finely dispersed drople

28、ts.Many contaminants hinder the separation of this free waterfrom the fluid by settling and may cause an emulsion. Inhydraulic fluids, the emulsion impairs circulation, interferewith lubrication and adversely affect contamination controlequipment.5.2.1 Water contamination can be classified as either

29、 freshor sea water, as encountered in land or marine systems. Freshwater enters the hydraulic system from moist air as condensa-tion, through improperly located vents, leaks in coolers, andsteam heaters, and because of improper operation. Sea water, inmarine hydraulic systems, enters through leaks i

30、n coolers,faulty manhole gaskets, faulty sump tank seals and improperlylocated vents. Sea and brackish water can also present a2For referenced ASTM standards, visit the ASTM website, www.astm.org, orcontact ASTM Customer Service at serviceastm.org.

33、ter fluid viscosity.5.2.1.11 Adversely affect fine filtration.5.2.2 In the case of severe salt water contamination, it isnecessary to remove the operating fluid and clean and flush thehydraulic systems.5.3 Soluble Contaminants:5.3.1 Soluble contaminants in hydraulic systems includecleaning chemicals

34、, solvents, rust preventives, incompatiblelubricants, flushing oils, extraneous oils, oxidation products,gasket sealants, and assembly lubricants. These contaminantscannot be removed by conventional fluid contamination controlequipment. Normally, a new charge of fluid is required tocorrect the probl

35、em. Fluid soluble contaminants can:5.3.1.1 Change the fluid viscosity.5.3.1.2 Alter the flash point.5.3.1.3 Change the color.5.3.1.4 Result in sludge deposits.5.3.1.5 Attack elastomeric seals.5.3.1.6 Initiate additive-water interaction that can causeemulsification, possible additive loss, instabilit

37、ith a new charge.5.4 Insoluble Contaminants:5.4.1 Insoluble contaminants normally encountered aremetal particles of all types and sizes, fibers, airborne solids,sand, and other nonmetallic particles. These contaminants areoften the result of improper manufacturing techniques, im-proper shipping and

38、storage practices, and careless installationof hydraulic systems. Some of the effects of solid contamina-tion are:5.4.1.1 Abrasive wear or sticking of components such as:control valve poppets, cylinders, piston rods, and seals.5.4.1.2 Faulty control functioning, particularly pluggedfluid lines/filte

39、r plugging.5.4.1.3 Reduced fluid stability.5.4.1.4 Sludge formation.5.4.1.5 Increased foaming tendency.5.4.1.6 Stabilized water-oil emulsions/accelerated oxidationby catalytic effect of metal particles.5.4.2 Harmful contamination can exist in the hydraulicsystem in two forms:5.4.2.1 Lodged Contamina

40、tionThese contaminants maybecome dislodged by high fluid flows and temperature differ-entials or by induced vibration during flushing. Contaminationcan be lodged in unflushed pockets or settled on the bottom oftanks. Unless this contaminant is removed, it becomes dis-lodged during startup or during

41、system upsets. Experience,good judgement, and careful inspection by the installationsupervisor must be relied upon to determine when such dirt hasbeen satisfactorily removed.5.4.2.2 Suspended Contamination:5.4.2.3 (a) Contaminants suspended in the fluid can begenerated by particles coming loose from

42、 pipe, hose, hydrauliccomponents, tank walls generally caused by high fluid velocity,wear debris, and vibration. Suspended contaminant can bemeasured, as described in 11.3. To prevent the level ofsuspended contaminant from getting beyond acceptable limits,all units should be provided at least with a

43、 bypass contamina-tion control system (fluid filter or centrifuge). Preferably a fullflow filter or a full flow filter plus bypass purification isprovided. When a full flow filter is used, a bypass purificationsystem may not be required.5.4.2.4 (b) The bypass or full flow system, or both, are inoper

44、ation during the flush operation as well as on a continuousbasis during hydraulic system operation. The rated flow capac-ity per hour of a bypass system should be 10 to 20 % of thetotal system fluid volume.6. Contamination Control6.1 GeneralContamination control in a hydraulic systemis the complete

45、program of monitoring and maintaining a cleanfluid. Contamination control must begin with the design,manufacture, and installation of the hydraulic system andcontinue throughout the life of the system. When makinginspections or working in or around a unit, care must be takento prevent contaminants f

46、rom entering the system. When workthat generates contaminants is being performed in the vicinityof the hydraulic system, the system components must beprotected even to the extent of suspending operations, andrequiring system components to be sealed until the contami-nating activity has ceased. The c

47、ontamination control systemmust be capable of removing water and particulate matterconsistent with contamination tolerance and system cleanlinessrequirements.6.1.1 Initial FillingWhen initially filling the hydraulicsystem, all fluids are filtered through 3 to 10-m absolute (see4.1) filters as they a

48、re being transferred into the reservoir. Thecontamination control system is ready for operation prior to thehydraulic system fill and is operating throughout flushing. SeeSection 9.5.6.1.2 In-Service UnitsThe contamination control systemis in operation as long as the hydraulic system is in service.

49、Itsoperation is frequently and regularly monitored to assure that itis performing adequately and to determine the need for itsmaintenance.6.1.3 Connection of Contamination Control SystemTheexternal fluid take-off from the circulating system to thecontamination control system is from the lowest point of thefluid sump or reservoir, to facilitate removal of solid contami-nants and water.D 4174 89 (2005)36.1.3.1 Piping between the reservoir and the contaminationcontrol system is designed to minimize the potential for theloss of fluid that results from piping or equipment
