Hydac FCU 1310 - Display Cleanliness Classes According to SAE Absolute Particle Count Larger than a Defined Particle Size; Specifying a Cleanliness Code for each Particle Size; Specifying the Highest Cleanliness Code Measured

Appendix
Display cleanliness classes according to SAE
Absolute particle count larger than a defined particle size
Example: Cleanliness class to AS 4059:6
The maximum permissible particle count in the individual size ranges is bold-
faced in the above table.
Cleanliness class to AS 4059:6B
Size B particles may not exceed the maximum number indicated for class 6.
6 B = max. 19,500 particles > 5 µm in size
Specifying a cleanliness code for each particle size
Example: Cleanliness class to AS 4059: 7 A / 7 B / 6 C / 5 D
Cleanliness class
Particle / 100 ml
Size A ( > 1 µm / > 4 µm
(c)
)
100,000
Size B ( > 5 µm / > 6 µm
(c)
)
38,900
Size C ( > 15 µm / > 14 µm
(c)
)
3460
Size D ( > 25 µm / > 21 µm
(c)
)
306
Specifying the highest cleanliness code measured
Example: Cleanliness class to AS 4059 6 A – F
The 6 A – F specification requires a particle count in size ranges A – F.
The respective particle concentration of cleanliness code 6 may not be
exceeded in any of these ranges.
