Petroleum products — Determination of the filterability of lubricating oils — Part 1: Procedure for oils in the presence of water

ISO 13357-1:2017 specifies a procedure for the evaluation of the filterability of lubricating oils, particularly those designed for hydraulic applications, in the presence of water. The procedure only applies to mineral-based oils, since fluids manufactured from other materials (e.g. fire-resistant fluids) may not be compatible with the specified test membranes. The range of application has been evaluated with oils of viscosity up to ISO viscosity grade (VG) 100, as defined in ISO 3448. Within the range described, the filterability as defined is not dependent on the viscosity of the oil. The procedure is not suitable for some hydraulic oils on which specific properties have been conferred by the use of insoluble/partially soluble additives, or by particularly large molecular species. NOTE Filterability is a prime requirement for lubricating oils used in hydraulic systems because of the fine filters used in this application. ISO 13357-1:2017 defines a method for assessing the filterability of oils in the presence of contaminating water. It is noted that some oils will exhibit poorer filterability characteristics in these conditions. ISO 13357‑2[1] is used to investigate the filterability of an oil which is used in applications where the presence of water in the oil is unlikely. An oil which has good filterability in the presence of contaminating water will not necessarily have equally good filterability in dry conditions. An oil having good filterability only when wet is unlikely to be generally acceptable.

ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards

through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.

Introduction
As the fluid in a hydraulic system acts as a lubricant to minimize wear of the components, it is
important to reduce the concentrations of circulating hard contaminant particles. This is particularly
necessary when the performance of the system depends on the maintenance of small clearances and
orifices. Removal of these contaminants is effected by the use of filters. The ability of a hydraulic fluid
to pass through fine filters, without plugging them, is called its “filterability”. This document describes
a laboratory test procedure for assessing the filterability of mineral oils which have been heat-soaked
in the presence of water. Filterability so determined is not a physical characteristic of the oil, but
represents an estimation of its behaviour in service.
This document describes two measurements, referred to as “stages”. The Stage I determination is based
on a comparison of the mean flow rate of a fluid through a test membrane with its initial flow rate. Oils
having good Stage I filterability, but only a poor Stage II performance (see below), would be unlikely to
give performance problems in use, unless extremely fine system filters are utilized.
The Stage II determination is based upon the ratio between the initial flow rate of fluid through the
test membrane and the rate at the end of the test. It is considered that this part of the procedure is a
more severe test, and is more sensitive to the presence of gels and fine silts in the oil. Silts and gels may
be present in an oil when it is produced, or could be formed as an oil ages, especially when hot. An oil
with good Stage II filterability would be unlikely to give filtration problems even in the most extreme
conditions, and with fine (less than 5 µm) filtration present. It would thus be suitable for use in more
critical hydraulic and lubrication systems.
The procedure has been evaluated with mineral oils up to ISO viscosity grade 100. There would appear
to be no reason why it should not be used with oils of higher viscosity grade (ISO viscosity grade 220 is
a practical maximum), but the data obtained could not be claimed to be completely in accordance with
this method. Similarly, it should be possible to extend the test procedure to fluids other than mineral
oils. However, some fluids, e.g. fire-resistant fluids, will not be compatible with the specified test
membranes, and the test could only be used for comparison purposes even when suitable membranes,
with similar pore size/pore density characteristics to those specified in this procedure, have been
identified.

1 Scope
This document specifies a procedure for the evaluation of the filterability of lubricating oils, particularly
those designed for hydraulic applications, in the presence of water. The procedure only applies to
mineral-based oils, since fluids manufactured from other materials (e.g. fire-resistant fluids) may not
be compatible with the specified test membranes. The range of application has been evaluated with
oils of viscosity up to ISO viscosity grade (VG) 100, as defined in ISO 3448. Within the range described,
the filterability as defined is not dependent on the viscosity of the oil. The procedure is not suitable for
some hydraulic oils on which specific properties have been conferred by the use of insoluble/partially
soluble additives, or by particularly large molecular species.
NOTE Filterability is a prime requirement for lubricating oils used in hydraulic systems because of the fine
filters used in this application.
This document defines a method for assessing the filterability of oils in the presence of contaminating
water. It is noted that some oils will exhibit poorer filterability characteristics in these conditions.
[1]
ISO 13357-2 is used to investigate the filterability of an oil which is used in applications where
the presence of water in the oil is unlikely. An oil which has good filterability in the presence of
contaminating water will not necessarily have equally good filterability in dry conditions. An oil having
good filterability only when wet is unlikely to be generally acceptable.

3.1
filterability
dimensionless number which is the ratio, expressed as a percentage, between volumes (Stage I) or flow
rates (Stage II) at specified intervals in the test procedure
3.2
stage I filterability
ratio, expressed as a percentage, between 240 ml and the volume of oil actually filtered in the time that
240 ml would have theoretically taken, assuming no plugging of the membrane
3.3
stage II filterability
ratio, expressed as a percentage, between the flow rate near the start of the filtration, and the flow rate
between 200 ml and 300 ml of filtered volume
4 Principle
The test fluid is treated with water at an elevated temperature, filtered under specified conditions
through a membrane of 0,8 µm mean pore diameter, and the times for the specified filtrate volumes
are recorded. Filterabilities are calculated from ratios of the filtration rate near the start of filtration
to the filtration rate at specified higher filtered volumes. The result of the test is the
