Scope1.1 This test method covers the determination of sedimentand soluble sludge in service-aged insulating oils of petroleumorigin

3、. Also, provision is made for determining organic andinorganic content of the sediment. The method is intendedprimarily for oils of comparatively low viscosity; for example5.7 to 13.0 cSt (mm2/s) at 40C (104F). Suitability for highviscosity oils have not been determined.1.2 This standard may involve

Summary of Test Method4.1 A sample portion is centrifuged to separate sedimentfrom the oil. The u

8、pper, sediment-free portion is decanted andretained for determination of soluble sludge. The sediment isdislodged and filtered through a filtering crucible. After dryingand weighing to obtain total sediment the crucible is ignited at500C and reweighed. Loss in weight is organic and theremainder is i

9、norganic content of sediment. Soluble sludge isdetermined on the sediment-free portion by dilution withn-pentane to precipitate n-pentane insolubles, and filtrationthrough a filtering crucible or 0.45 m filter membrane.5. Significance and Use5.1 Sediment in insulating oil may deposit on transformerp

Inorganicsediment usually indicates contamination of some type andorganic sediment indicates either deterioration of the oil orcontamination.5.2 Soluble sludge indicates deterioration o

It serves as a warning thatformation of sediment may be imminent.5.3 The determination of sediment and soluble sludge in aused insulating oil assists in deciding whether the oil maycontinue to be used in its existing condition or should bereplaced, recl
