Air Compressor Oil Testing Methods

There are many sophisticated methods for testing compressor oil including RBOT, viscosity, thermal and wear testing.  These tests are used as a method of evaluation of process fluid, as well as a way to evaluate the differences in quality between  two different oil samples.  Please follow the links below to learn about these various oil tests. 

Demulsibility Test - for measuring the ability of oil to separate from water

Foam Test - for measuring the foaming tendency of oil

Four Ball Wear Test - for determining the anti wear properties of air compressor oil and other lubircants

RBOT Test - for testing oxidation stability in oil

Oil Viscosity Test - for determining the resistance to flow of your compressor oil

F - for determining the resistance to flow of your compressor oil
