20、ulating oils have been traditionally manufactured from naphtenic crudes containing no wax. Modifications in crude supply resulted in manufacturing mineral insulating oils from waxy crudes. Although these crudes are processed in order to lower the wax content, the complete elimination of waxes is eco
21、nomically onerous, so that pour point depressants are added to the partially dewaxed oils in order to meet the required cold flow properties as specified in IEC296. The need has been recognized for a test enabling the evaluation of the stability of pour point depressants and their compatibility with
22、 solid insulation such as paper. 1 Scope This International Standard describes a method for assessing the changes in activity of pour point depressant additives in inhibited and uninhibited mineral insulating oils when aged in the presence of insulating kraft paper. 2 Normative references The follow
23、ing standards contain provisions which through reference in this text, constitute provisions of this International Standard. At the time of publication, the editions indicated were valid.

27、mination of kinematic viscosity and calculation of dynamic viscosity. 3 Summary of the method The oil sample is aged according to IEC813 in the presence of a specified amount of cellulosic paper. The effect of ageing on the activity of the pour point depressant is determined from the variations of t
28、he pour point and of the low temperature viscosity. Optionally, the extent of ageing of the oil may be determined by measurement of the total acidity and the sludge content. The average viscometric degree of polymerization of the paper may also be determined. 4 Apparatus and auxiliary materials The
29、apparatus shall conform to clause3 of IEC813. All glassware shall be cleaned in accordance with clause5 of IEC813. In addition to the materials listed in clauses3 and6 of IEC813, the following is required: Kraft paper, according to IEC554-3-1, apparent density0,8kg/dm 3 , thickness0,10mm, in the for
30、m of strips50cm 1,5cm. 5 Number of test tubes The contents of three test tubes are required for the measurements of viscosity and pour point. One additional test tube is necessary if it is desired to determine total acidity and sludge. 6 Preparations for the test 6.1 Wind a paper strip around the bo
31、ttom end of the gas inlet tube on the Drechsel head of the oxidation tube and fix the free end by any suitable means. Do not obstruct the gas outlet opening. Dry the paper in a ventilated oven at105 C overnight or in a vacuum oven at85 C for6h. NOTEThis conditioning is expected to dry the paper to a
32、 water content of less than1% by mass. The water content of the paper may be determined by the method described in IEC733. 6.2 Prepare a catalyst coil as per clause6 of IEC813. 6.3 Weigh25g 0,1g of oil into the oxidation tube. Extract the Drechsel head from the oven and slide the catalyst coil over
33、the gas inlet tube and the paper wrapping. Immediately insert the Drechsel head into the oxidation tube. 6.4 Repeat the steps of6.1 to6.3 for two additional tubes. 7 Procedure 7.1 Adjust the heating bath to maintain the oil in all oxidation tubes at the required temperature of120 C 0,5 C.EN61065:199
34、3 4 BSI 01-2000 7.2 Place the oxidation tubes in the heater using a rubber O-ring if necessary, to close the gap between the tubes and the thermally insulated top. 7.3 Pour25ml of distilled water and a few drops of phenolphthalein indicator solution (into the absorption tubes). Insert the Drechsel h
35、ead and connect it to the oxidation tube. Adjust the air flow to0,15l/h 0,015l/h measured by means of the soapmeter connected to the outlet end of the absorption tubes. 7.4 Oxidize the oil as per clause8 of IEC813 for164h (uninhibited oil) or by a multiple of168h (inhibited oil) while maintaining it
36、s temperature at120 C 0,5 C and the air flow at0,15l/h 0,0151/h. Check air flow and temperature daily. 7.5 At the end of the oxidation period determine the volatile acidity in each absorption tube according to subclause10.3 of IEC813. 7.6 Combine the oil contents of at least three tubes for which co
37、mparable degrees of oxidation (volatile acidity) are indicated. Collect the composite oil in a glass flask, cool to ambient temperature and inspect visually. Filter if any sludge or turbidity is discerned. 7.7 Use the composite oil for measuring viscosity and pour point. Perform optional oil tests o
38、n a separate tube. Reserve one aged paper strip for the determination of the degree of polymerization. 8 Measurements 8.1 Kinematic viscosity Determine viscosity at15 C or30 C according to the class of the oil tested, using ISO3104. 8.2 Pour point Determine pour point according to ISO3016. 8.3 Acidi
39、ty and sludge (optional) Determine volatile acidity, soluble acidity and sludge according to clause10 of IEC813. 8.4 Degree of polymerization (DP) of paper (optional) Determine DP according to IEC450. 9 Interpretation of results 9.1 Viscosity The result obtained on the aged oil is compared with the
40、value recorded for the new oil. Any difference of more than10% of the original value should be taken to indicate a loss of activity of the pour point depressing additive. NOTEWith oils of low oxidation stability, viscosity may increase due to oxidation of the oil. 9.2 Pour point The pour point of th
41、e aged oil should not differ (by more than6 C) from the result recorded for the new oil. 9.3 Oxidation stability related properties Experience to date suggests that no significant changes in oxidation rate should be expected due to the presence of paper. 9.4 Degree of polymerization (DP) The DP of t
42、he aged paper should be judged against the value determined on a sample of new paper dried simultaneously with the test paper samples. 10 Report The report should include: the reference to this standard; the relative (percent) variation of viscosity; the change in pour point ( C); total acidity and
43、sludge percentage (optional); the degree of polymerization of the dried paper end of the aged paper (optional).EN61065:1993 BSI 01-2000 5 Annex ZA (normative) Other international publications quoted in this standard with the referencesofthe relevant European publications When the international publi
