COURSE OVERVIEW

This hands-on, highly-interactive course includes real-life case studies where participants will be engaged in a series of interactive small groups and class workshops.

This course is designed to provide participants with a detailed and up-to-date overview of lube oil testing. It covers the lubricant testing and performance analysis; the viscosity, flash/fire point, pour, cloud point and foam; the air release properties, neutralization number, acid number, base number and filterability; and the oxidation stability, turbine oil oxidation test, rotary pressure vessel oxidation test, rust and corrosion tests, turbine oil rust test and copper strip corrosion.

During this interactive course, participants will learn the anti-wear tests, four ball wear test, vickers wear pump test and SRV test; the extreme pressure; the four ball EP test, timken extreme pressure test, falex EP/wear test and FZG four square gear test rig; the demulsibility, grease consistency, dropping point of grease, mechanical stability of greases and rolling stability of greases; and the water washout test for greases, water spray test for greases, rolling bearing rust test, koppers centrifugal stability test, oil separation in grease storage and oxidation stabilitygreases.
