Standard Test Method for Ferrous Debris Quantification

Importancia y uso:

5.1 By quantifying the concentration of total ferrous debris, this test method provides a direct indication of wear in the machinery by enabling the user to pinpoint when there is a deviation from the normal buildup of ferrous debris shed by the machinery. Specific guidance regarding such procedures may be found in Guides D7669, D7720, and D7874.

5.2 This test method can be performed on-site and can be utilized as a particle-size insensitive, minimum sample preparation alternative to laboratory-based screening for abnormal machinery conditions due to the presence of wear debris by means of ferrography as described in Practice D7690, or elemental analysis methods such as atomic emission spectrometry, described in Test Methods D5185 and D6595.
