Title
Standard Test Method for Sediments and Soluble Sludge in Service-Aged Insulating Oils

ASTM International

Publication Date:
May 10, 2003

Scope:

This test method covers the determination of sediment and soluble sludge in service-aged insulating oils of petroleum origin. Also, provision is made for determining organic and inorganic content of the sediment. The method is intended primarily for oils of comparatively low viscosity; for example 5.7 to 13.0 cSt (mm²/s) at 40°C (104°F). Suitability for high viscosity oils have not been determined.

The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as standard. No other units of measurement are included in this standard.

This standard may involve hazardous materials, operations, and equipment. 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.
