Reassemble the unit

17、 to testspecification values. Install the unit on the motoring rig andthen connect an oil temperature monitoring probe and a driveshaft. Place a cooling fan and heat lamps into position near thetest unit.4.3 Motoring PhaseCharge the test unit with 40 oz (1.2 L)of test oil. Drive the test unit with a

18、n electric motor at2500-r/min pinion speed in an unloaded condition (no axleshafts are used for the test). Add 1 oz (30 mL) of specified testwater into the oil fill opening (all other test unit openingshaving been already sealed). Install the pressure relief systemand set to 1 psi (7 kPa). Plug the

19、relief system when thelubricant temperature reaches 180F (82.2C). Continue themotoring phase for4hatthis controlled temperature.4.4 Storage PhaseStop the motor at the completion of themotoring phase. Remove the test unit from the motoring rigand place in a storage box at 125F (52C) for 162 h.4.5 Ins

20、pectionAt the end of the storage phase, the test iscomplete. Drain the differential assembly, disassemble, andrate for rust, stain, and other deposits.5. Significance and Use5.1 This test simulates a type of severe field service inwhich corrosion-promoting moisture in the form of condensedwater vapo

21、r accumulates in the axle assembly. This mayhappen as a result of volume expansion and contraction of theaxle lubricant and the accompanied breathing in of moisture-laden air through the axle vent. The test screens lubricants fortheir ability to prevent the expected corrosion.5.2 The test method des

22、cribed in this standard may be usedby any properly equipped laboratory, without the assistance ofanyone not associated with that laboratory. However, theASTM Test Monitoring Center (TMC) provides reference oilsand an assessment of the test results obtained on those oils bythe laboratory (see Annex A

23、7). By this means, the laboratorywill know whether their use of the test method gives resultsstatistically similar to those obtained by other laboratories.Furthermore, various agencies require that a laboratory utilizethe TMC services in seeking qualification of oils againstspecifications. For examp

24、le, the U.S. Army imposes such arequirement in connection with several Army lubricating oilspecifications.5.3 The L-33-1 test procedure is used or referred to in thefollowing documents: ASTM Publication STP-512A,8SAEJ308, SAE J2360, and U.S. Military Specification MIL-PRF-2105E.6.
