General 1.1 Scope This International Standard describes three test methods using the same apparatus for evaluating the oxidation stability of mineral insulating oils and of hydrocarbon
30、-based insulating liquids. It comprises four sections as follows: Section 1 describes the following items common to the three methods: the equipment and reagents; the cleaning of the glassware; the preparation of the catalyst and of the insulating liquid sample to be tested; the determinations on th
31、e oxidized insulating liquid. Section 2 Method A describes a method for evaluating the oxidation stability of unused uninhibited mineral insulating oils under accelerated conditions. Section 3 Method B describes a method for evaluating the oxidation stability of unused inhibited mineral insulating o
32、ils under accelerated conditions. Section 4 Method C describes a method for evaluating the oxidation stability of unused uninhibited and inhibited hydrocarbon insulating liquids under accelerated conditions. 1.2 Normative references The following standards contain provisions which, through reference
33、 in this text, constitute provisions of this International Standard. At the time of publication, the editions indicated were valid. All standards are subject to revision, and parties to agreements based on this International Standard are encouraged to investigate the possibility of applying the most
34、 recent editions of the standards indicated below. Members of IEC and ISO maintain registers of currently valid International Standards. IEC 247:(1978), Measurement of relative permittivity, dielectric dissipation factor and d.c. resistivity of insulating liquids. ISO 383:(1976), Laboratory glasswar

ISO/DIS 6344-1, Coated abrasives Grain size analysis Part 1: Definitions, designation and principles. 1.3 General principle of the methods The liquid samp
36、le to be tested, through which a stream of oxygen or air is bubbled, is maintained for a given period at a given temperature, 100 C or 120 C, in the presence of solid copper. The resistance to oxidation is evaluated from the amount of total sludge and total acidity formed or from the time to develop
37、 a given amount of volatile acidity (induction period). 1.4 Equipment 1.4.1 Heating arangement A thermostatically-controlled aluminium alloy block heater or oil bath may be used to maintain the insulating liquid in the desired number of oxidation tubes at the required temperature 100 C0 , 5 C or 120
38、 C0 ,5 C (as examples see Figure 1 and Figure 3, pages 19 and 20). This temperature shall be read on a thermometer (see Annex B) inserted in an oxidation tube to within 5 mm from the bottom; this oxidation tube shall be filled with oil up to the immersion line of the thermometer and placed in the he
39、ating bath. The temperature of the upper surface of the thermal insulation top shall be maintained at 50 C5 C (Method A) or 60 C5 C (Methods B and C). Measure this temperature by the use of a thermometer in a drilled aluminium block (see Figure 2, page 20). The surfaces of this block, other than tha
40、t against the upper surface of the heating device, are protected by suitable thermal insulation of nominal 4 mm thickness. The thermal characteristics of this insulation shall be such as to permit the specified temperatures to be achieved. This block should be placed as near to the holes as practica
41、ble and within the area of the upper surface covering the heating device.EN 61125:1993 4 BSI 28 July 2004 When using an aluminium heating block, the oxidation tubes are inserted into the holes to an overall depth of 150 mm. The depth of the holes in the heating part of the block shall be at least 12
42、5 mm and short aluminium alloy collars, passing through the insulating cover and surrounding each oxidation tube, will ensure heating over the 150 mm length of the tube. In the case of oil baths, the oxidation tubes shall be immersed to a depth of 137 mm in the oil and to an overall depth of 150 mm
43、in the bath (see Figure 3, page 20). For both types of heating device, the height of the oxidation tubes above the upper surface shall be 60 mm and the diameter of the holes shall be just sufficient to allow insertion of the specified tube. In the case of slackness a 25 mm internal diameter O-ring m
44、ay be placed around the tube and pressed against the thermal insulation top or inserted into the annular space between the tube and the thermal insulated top. The heating bath should be equipped with supports to hold the absorption tubes. When in use the heater shall be shielded from direct sunlight
45、 and air draughts. NOTE When oil baths are used, for safety reasons, it may be advisable to place them in a fume hood. 1.4.2 Test vessels Test tubes of borosilicate or neutral glass provided with a 24/29 ground joint (see ISO 383), of the following dimensions: The test tube is fitted with a Drechsel
46、 head to which is attached the inlet tube which extends to within 2,5 mm 0,5 mm from the bottom and has its end ground at an angle of 60 to the horizontal axis (see Figure 4, page 21). 1.4.3 Absorption tubes (only required for methods B and C) These are identical to the test vessels and the distance
47、 between the axes of the two tubes shall be 150 mm 50 mm (see Figure 4 and Figure 4 bis, pages 21 and 22). Connections between the test and absorption tubes should be as short as possible, of glass tubing butt-jointed to the vessels by means of short flexible sleeves (silicone rubber sleeving has be
48、en found suitable for this purpose). These tubes are mounted outside the heating device. 1.4.4 Filtering crucibles Gooch-type crucibles with fused-in fritted glass disk according to ISO 4793 grade P 10 porosity (po r esi z ei nde x4 4m and k 10 4m) of, for example, 35 ml capacity. NOTE 1 Maximum dia
49、meter of the pores can be determined in accordance with the method described in Annex A. NOTE 2 Alternatively polymeric membrane filters may be used, provided they are compatible with oil and solvents. Suitable membranes consist of mixture of cellulose esters (cellulose nitrate + cellulose acetate) with the following characteristics: The filtration is improved by impregnating the membrane with a suitable wetti
