(Test Method)Standard Test Method for Oxidation Stability of Steam Turbine Oils by Rotating Pressure Vessel
Standard Test Method for Oxidation Stability of Steam Turbine Oils by Rotating Pressure Vessel
SCOPE
1.1 This test method utilizes an oxygen-pressured vessel to evaluate the oxidation stability of new and in service turbine oils having the same composition (base stock and additives) in the presence of water and a copper catalyst coil at 150°C.
1.2 The values stated in acceptable S1 units are to be regarded as the standard.
1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use. For specific warning, see 6.2, 6.4, 6.5, 6.6, 6.10, 6.11.
