Wear Metals and Contaminant Guidelines The following tables contain general information and are system focused rather than machine family specific with few exceptions indicated by footnotes. Use these tables only as a guideline. The ALS lab has complete and detailed guidelines by component and model that sometimes may trigger alarms at different levels than indicated on tables within this document. Also keep in mind that application, environment, filtration and type of lubricants, and attachments, could produce different readings that may not be indicative of malfunction or contamination. Time Dependant Elements: Certain elements tend to increase with time with regard to others and independently from filtration. These tables identify those elements and suggest the hours for these readings. Units of Measure PPM (Part Per Million) is used to indicate relative concentration of wear metals, water, contaminants and additives measured in weight in relation to the fluid sample volume weight. Percentage (%) of concentration represents the relative water and fuel contamination. Particle Counts indicate different groupings of particle concentrations. They are typically measured in 4 micron and higher, 6 micron and higher, 14 micron and higher, 23 micron and higher and 50 microns and higher concentrations per milliliter. These numbers correlate with an ISO chart to obtain a three number cleanliness code. See explanation in page 4. ISO Cleanliness Codes is the standard method to classify fluid cleanliness measurements more easily. Until 1999 the ISO 4406 particle size classification was used to measure 5 and 15-micron particle concentration expressed in a two number code. After 1999, a revision to this standard came into effect under number ISO 11171, which measures 4/6/14 micron particle concentrations. The older two numbers for 5/15-micron measurement closely correlate to 6/ 14-micron current measurements. Absorbance, abs/cm is a unit to report oxidation, nitration and sulfation. This unit is a direct reading from the FTIR instrument (Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy) and expresses the wavelengths of certain chemical compounds of interest representative of the required tests. PQ Index is a measurement of large ferrous material present in components, especially power trains, axles and final drives that otherwise are not measurable through regular spectrographic analysis. The accepted value ranges are explained on table on page 7.

Physical Properties
Viscosity is the internal resistance of a lubricant or fluid to flow. The most common viscosity measurement is Kinematic viscosity and it is expressed in an ISO unit called centistokes (cSt). Hydraulic fluid viscosity is measured at 40 degrees C while engine oils are measured at 100 degrees C. Viscosity variation of more than 10% or 15% up or down need attention, see table in page 6 for guidelines. Oxidation of an oil or fluid represents the remaining life of the antioxidant additive. When a fluid is totally oxidized there is no additive left to protect the system. The additive depletes over time and its depletion is accelerated by high temperatures, water and contaminants. TBN or total base number is the alkaline reserve of that oil to neutralize acid formation. TAN or total acid number is an opposing corresponding number to TBN and represents the total acidic level of the oil.

Wear elements
CHROMIUM ALUMINUM TITANIUM

COPPER

NICKEL

Iron can be present as a fine particle produced by abrasion or wear, but also as iron oxides generally associated with the presence of water or a corrosive reaction to additives. Iron generally comes from the liners in engines or from hydraulic cylinders, gear pumps with cast iron bodies, piston pumps without sleeves, lines and reservoirs in hydraulic systems, and from planetary carriers in final drives and differentials. Chromium is a very hard metal wear particle produced by engine piston rings. Chromium readings indicate that something harder than it is present, namely silica or alumina. New engines produce could produce chromium during the break-in period, especially with break-in oils purposely lacking molybdenum. Chromium in hydraulic systems is typically from valve spools or cylinder rods; harder abrasives also trigger chromium generation. Chromium also comes from final drive and differential bearings. Copper is a soft metal from bronze alloys that are present in engines, hydraulic pumps, differentials, final drives, power shift transmissions, and in cooler cores. In engines, its presence of copper could indicate a cooler core or water pump leak, but also from thrust washers in the camshaft, rocker arm or piston wrist bushings. When present with Glycol (potassium and sodium) it could be coming from oil cooler. When it is associated with lead and/or tin, but without glycol traces, it is an indication that it is coming from the bearings/bushings. New oil like CI-4 or CJ-4s will promote high copper generation during passivation of the oil cooler. Constant changes of type of oil will trigger copper generation from the cooler. Some copper generation, ranging from 10 to 100 PPM or more, can sometimes be present in hydraulic systems. Larger generation of copper is typically triggered by water, silica, high temperature operation and most importantly, by additive incompatibility from fluid mixing or by etching. Copper also comes from final drives equipped with park brakes and slip spin/diff lock differentials, or from thrust washers.

14

SILVER

LEAD

IRON

TIN

Aluminum is a wear element that generally comes from pistons in engines. High aluminum associated with silica is probably dirt. Aluminum in hydraulic systems generally is from dirt ingestion. Aluminum in final drives is unequivocally from dirt. Tin is a metal used in soft alloys of bronze in combination with lead. It is generally present in small amounts in hydraulic pumps. However, when tin is present in engines, it is generally associated with lead and copper to indicate high bearing wear. Tin could also be present in coolers solder that leach back to the coolant or oil. Lead is a very soft metal used in alloys in combination with tin for engine bearings and bushings. Lead is present in hydraulic pump alloys as well. Lead presence in engines in more than 10 PPM indicates some bearing wear. Low TBN and /or high sulfation in engines correlate with high lead production. Glycol or fuel contamination can produce high lead readings. Nickel it is common in carburized bearings in combination with some chromium in axles and transmissions. Nickel is no as common in engine oil analysis and when it is found is an indication of turbocharger cam plate wear or valve guide wear and valves themselves. Silver is not typical in construction equipment oil analysis but when present in engines it could come from accessory drive, turbocharger bearings or wrist pin bushings. Titanium is not a typical wear metal present in oil analysis from construction equipment. Some traces are possible from some alloys. Titanium in the form of titanium oxides could be present as contamination from paint or from operation in certain bauxite mines.

Contamination elements

POTASSIUM

SULFATION

Silicon is the principal component of dirt and it is present in its natural and oxidative form as silica. It is harder than any metal used in mobile equipment and can scratch hard surfaces easily. In new engines, its presence could indicate liquid silicon material used as sealant during assembly. It typically washes out after several oil changes. Silica (the oxidative form of silicone) appears in nature associated with alumina in a typical of 4 to 1 and 6 to 1 ratios. Silicon is also present in oils and fluids as a constituent of foam inhibitor additive Polydimethylsiloxane or Polyacrylate. Expect to find between 1 to 4 PPM in new engine oils or some tractor fluids. Aluminum is generally present in association with silica in a 1 to 5 ratio and enters together with dirt. It enters the system in its oxidative form as alumina, and it is extremely hard. Aluminum is the most abundant metal in the world. Potassium is present in Glycol and it is not an additive for engine oils as such, although some small readings of about 2 to 3 PPM could be present. When combined with sodium and sometimes with boron, it is a confirmation of glycol contamination.

15

NITRATION

ALUMINUM

GLYCOL

SILICON

SODIUM

WATER

SOOT

FUEL

Sodium is also present in glycol but also in many salts, or seawater. Sodium in small amounts could be an additive, however, if its presence is associated with potassium and/or boron it is a confirmation of glycol contamination. Sodium in association with silica and alumina (dirt) is very typical. Fuel could be present in diesel engine oils as a by-product of incomplete combustion or leaks. The allowable limit is <3% of volume, unless otherwise noted by OEM. Fuel is responsible for sulfation in engines oils. See sulfation below. Fuel in large quantities can cause a drop in the viscosity of engine oils and more than a 1cSt change in viscosity from expected levels (see engine wear chart above) would be used to gauge overall impact engine oil. Fuel contamination with Ultra Low Sulfur Diesel hasnt shown to be as alarming as with Low Sulfur Diesel. Glycol is a coolant for engines and its presence in engine oils cause a rapid increase in oil viscosity. It also causes disruption to oil film and bearing failure. Typically glycol contains potassium, sodium and boron. Some organic acid coolants may not show increase numbers in sodium. Water is the enemy number two of hydraulic fluid additives. It causes additive depletion, corrosion, and generates copper and iron. Water is present as free water, emulsified or saturated. The Karl Fisher test provides total water content. Free and emulsified water is easy to remove with water absorbent filters. Saturated (Dissolved) water in fluids at a level of more than 75% probably requires a change of fluid. Soot is a term used to describe fine carbon particles suspended in engine oils. Soot is a by-product of incomplete combustion of fuel. Over time soot sludge causes an increase in viscosity and carbon deposits that could clog lubrication galleries in engines. Sulfation describes the amount of sulfur in engine oil introduced by combustion blow-by in diesel engines. Sulfation increases with hours and fuel contamination. Too much sulfation can deplete the alkaline reserve, create corrosive acids and increase iron and lead readings. Nitration is a phenomenon that occurs more frequently in engine oils. Nitration is a by-product of combustion. It comes as nitrous oxides that cause oxidation and leads to the formation of varnish deposits and sludge, thus increasing oil viscosity.

Additive elements

MOLYBDENUM

PHOSPHORUS

MAGNESIUM

CALCIUM

SULFUR

SODIUM

BARIUM

BORON

Boron is an EP (extreme pressure) additive but it is also a constituent of coolants. A small amount of boron without the presence of potassium is an indication of Boron as an additive. Barium is an additive present in sulfonates. Sulfonates in turn are additives that act as detergents and corrosion inhibitors.

16

ZINC

Calcium is a detergent and it comes in sulfonates as well. It cleans carbon deposits from engines and acts as a corrosion inhibitor and dispersant. Magnesium is also part of a detergent additive as magnesium alkyl benzene sulfonate. It reacts with sludge and varnish precursors to neutralize them and keep them soluble. Molybdenum is present in an anti-wear additive as molybdenum disulfide, typical in engine oils. Sodium is found in small amounts as part of some additives in dirt as salt. Phosphorus is present in extreme pressure (EP) as well as anti-wear /anti-oxidant additives like ZZDP and TCP and friction modifiers in engine oils, hydraulic fluids and gear oils. Sulfur is present in extreme pressure additives in combination with phosphorus. Zinc is part of ZDDP additive that acts as an anti-wear, anti-corrosive, anti-oxidant and detergent additive and in some hydraulic systems from zinc-phosphate coating leaching.
