27、hod4.1 This test method uses FT-IR spectrometry to monitor soot levels in in-service lubricants. The test method is meant to serveas a field-based method to provide an indicator of soot level. The FT-IR spectra of in-service oil samples are collected accordingto the protocol described in Standard Pr

28、actice D7418 and the levels of soot are measured using the absorption intensitymeasurement described herein. The values obtained for the sample of the in-service oil are compared to the value for a sample ofnew reference oil using either direct trend analysis or differential trend analysis approache

29、s.5. Significance and Use5.1 An increase in soot material can lead to increased wear, filter plugging and viscosity, which is usually a consideration fordiesel engines, although it may also be an indicator of carburetor or injector problems in other fuel systems. Monitoring of sootis therefore an im

37、lculation of Soot ValueSoot has no specific frequency of absorption in the infrared spectrum, but causes a baselineshift and tilt in the spectrum due to light scattering.As such, soot is calculated from the normalized oil sample spectrum by directlymeasuring the absorbance intensity at 2000 cm-1 usi

38、ng no baseline. For differential trending, soot is directly measured from thedifference spectrum also using the absorbance intensity at 2000 cm-1. Fig. 1 illustrates the effect that soot (increasing from 1 to5) has on the baseline of the spectra of diesel crankcase oils in-service and the measuremen

41、inreliable results. The measured value obtained from the diluted oil sample spectrum is then multiplied by the dilution factor to givethe soot value for the original sample.

The efficacy of the flushingprotocol may be assessed by consecutively analyzing an oil having a low (or zero) soot level (L1, e.g., for example, a fresh oil)and an in-service oil sample having a high soot level (H1) followed by a second run of the oil samp

45、dicated sequence. The calculated PCshould be 5%.5 %.11. Reporting11.1 TrendingData shall be recorded and reported at selected time intervals during the lubricants life. Ideally, soot valueswould be compared to that of the newly formulated oil and plotted over time to visualize the relative changes i

Sampling and reportingtime intervals for soot are based on the type of machinery and its previous history associated with this parameter.11.2 Statistical Analysis and Alarm LimitsFor

48、erent oil formulations should not be compared. Results should be interpreted relative to valuesmeasured for unused oils of the same formulation or trended directly from the sample history.12. Precision and Bias12.1 PrecisionThe precision of the test method has not yet been determined by formal inter

49、laboratory study. Preliminaryexaminations of repeatability have shown that the difference between repetitive results obtained by the same operator in a givenlaboratory applying the same test method with the same apparatus under constant operating conditions onthis test method is basedon an interlaboratory study conducted in 2016. Eleven laboratories tested 18 different materials. Every “test result” represents anindividual determination. Each laboratory was asked to submit two replicate test results, from a single operator, for each material.Practice E691
