These practicesestablish guidelines to be used in preparing detailed proceduresfor sampling specific components.NOTE 1The term cleanliness used in these

4、practices refers to solidparticles in the liquid. It does not generally cover other foreign matter suchas gases, liquids, and products of chemical degradation. Cleanliness withrespect to particulate contamination does not necessarily give any indica-tion of the other types of contamination.1.2 All c

Summary of Practices4.1 Cleanliness is determined by sampling and analyzingfluid that has been in contact with the surface being analyzed.Specific methods are recommended; however, othe

Summary of Practice6.1 Fluid is extracted from the component and analyzed todetermine the particulate contamination level. Recommendedand alternative methods are given in Fig. 1.6.2 It is recommended that

27、 all operations of this practice beconducted in a dust controlled area. Cleanliness level of thedust controlled area shall be consistent with the componentcontamination limits.7. Significance and Use7.1 Although a cleaning action is imparted to the testcomponent, it is not the intent of this practic

28、e to serve as acleaning procedure. Components are normally cleaner aftereach consecutive test; thus repeated tests may be used toestablish process limits for a given component (Fig. 4). Aspecific set of test parameters must be supplied by the agencyspecifying cleanliness limits. Fig. 1, Fig. 2, and

29、Fig. 3 may beused as a guide to establish the desired parameters of test fluid,vibration, extraction, and analysis.7.2 The curve in Fig. 4 shows the typical behavior of acomponent when tested for cleanliness several consecutive4Annual Book of ASTM Standards, Vol 15.03.5Available from Standardization

Stabilization generally occurs before the fifth successiverun. The stabilized region starts where a horizo

31、ntal line throughthe maximum stabilized value intersects the curve.7.3 The allowable cleanliness limit of a test componentshould be based on the cleanliness requirements of the systemin which it will be used and the assigned value should begreater than the maximum stabilized value. When defining the

32、allowable cleanliness limits, an important consideration is thatthe accuracy of the results decreases as the allowable limitvalue approaches the stabilized value.8.
