1、Designation: D 7528 09Standard Test Method forBench Oxidation of Engine Oils by ROBO Apparatus1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D 7528; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A
2、 number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.INTRODUCTIONAny properly equipped laboratory, without outside assistance, can use the procedure described inthis test method. However, the ASTM Te
3、st Monitoring Center2(TMC) provides reference oils and anassessment of the test results obtained on those oils by the laboratory. By these means, the laboratorywill know whether its use of the test method gives results statistically similar to those obtained byother laboratories. Furthermore, variou
4、s agencies require that a laboratory utilize the TMC services inseeking qualification of oils against specifications. For example, the U.S. Army imposes such arequirement in connection with several Army engine lubricating oil specifications.Accordingly, this test method is written for use by laborat
5、ories that utilize the portions of the testmethod that refer to the TMC services. Laboratories that choose not to use the TMC services maysimply ignore these portions.This test method may be modified by means of information letters issued by the TMC. In addition,the TMC may issue supplementary memor

Ensure thesubsurface feed tube opening remains below the surface of thetest fluid for the duration of the test.NOTE 1As the amount of test oil remaining at the end of the test is notalways known at the beginning of the t
