1、Designation: D5704 16D5704 17Standard Test Method forEvaluation of the Thermal and Oxidative Stability ofLubricating Oils Used for Manual Transmissions and FinalDrive Axles1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D5704; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year
2、oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.INTRODUCTIONPortions of this test method are written for use by labor
3、atories that make use of ASTM TestMonitoring Center (TMC)2 services (see Annex A1 Annex A4).The TMC provides reference oils, and engineering and statistical services to laboratories that desireto produce test results that are statistically similar to those produced by laboratories previouslycalibrat
4、ed by the TMC.In general, the Test Purchaser decides if a calibrated test stand is to be used. Organizations such astheAmerican Chemistry Council require that a laboratory utilize the TMC services as part of their testregistration process. In addition, the American Petroleum Institute and the Gear L
5、ubricant ReviewCommittee of the Lubricant Review Institute (SAE International) require that a laboratory use theTMC services in seeking qualification of oils against their specifications.The advantage of using the TMC services to calibrate test stands is that the test laboratory (andhence the Test P
6、urchaser) has an assurance that the test stand was operating at the proper level of testseverity. It should also be borne in mind that results obtained in a non-calibrated test stand may notbe the same as those obtained in a test stand participating in the ASTM TMC services process.Laboratories that
7、 choose not to use the TMC services may simply disregard these portions.1. Scope*1.1 This test method is commonly referred to as the L-60-1 test.2 It covers the oil-thickening, insolubles-formation, anddeposit-formation characteristics of automotive manual transmission and final drive axle lubricati

33、 the oven air temperature limit to 400 F (204 C).This can be achieved by placing the insulated oven cover in position on the rig and installing the air temperature sensor at apenetration depth of 3 in. (75 mm) below the top inner surface of the cover. Switch on the heaters and circulating fan. Adjus
34、t thetemperature control device to deactivate the heaters when the air temperature reaches 400 F (204 C). This oven temperature limitmay later be reduced as outlined in 10.3 to meet rig heat-up requirements.8.2 Temperature Recording and Controlling InstrumentationSince this test procedure is extreme
35、ly sensitive to temperature,it is necessary to maintain a periodic check upon the accuracy of all items related to temperature measurement and control.Therefore, immediately after the installation of a new test rig, and before every set of reference tests, calibrate the instrumentationused to measur
36、e and record the air and oil temperatures against known standards traceable to NIST.22 For instance, calibrate theoil temperature thermocouple and indicating controller. This can be accomplished by immersing the tip of the probe into anauxiliary temperature-controlled oil bath equipped with a stirre
