DESCRIPTION:

80% of hydraulic system failures are caused by hydraulic fluid contamination. The purpose of this program is to teach students effective work procedures and the appropriate filtration method for each type of application. 


COURSE OBJECTIVES:

After completing this training, students will be able to:
  • Enumerate the various sources of contamination
  • Explain the meaning of ISO cleanliness codes (18/15/13)
  • Identify the correct ISO cleanliness codes for different systems and assess the filtration performance of various filters based on their description: rated, absolute maximum and Beta ratio
  • Select appropriate filters and determine their location in a hydraulic circuit
COURSE OUTLINE
  • Identification of the most common causes of system failure (contamination, cavitation, aeration, etc.)
  • Sources and effects of contamination (particles, water, air, heat, etc.)
  • Work procedure to reduce contaminant ingression to a minimum (when filling up reservoirs, making repairs, installing new piping)
  • Flushing procedure
  • Definition of cleanliness codes
  • Selection of the appropriate cleanliness code for each system
  • Selection and location of filters
  • Sampling and analysis (practical exercises to determine contamination levels and water percentage in an oil sample)

WHO SHOULD ATTEND? This program is intended for individuals directly involved in the design, maintenance or operation of hydraulic systems.

Duration: 8 hours

Maximum of 10 participants per group
