Particulate Contamination - Identifying, Eliminating and Removing It

In an ideal world, bearings would not fail until the theoretical bearing life is obtained. Unfortunately, we do not live an ideal world and many premature bearing failures are attributed to particulate contamination. It is well known that keeping the oil clean will result in longer life of both the lubricant and equipment it is lubricating. In this white paper, we cover where these particles come from, how to measure and quantify using the ISO Cleanliness Codes, and cost effective methods of removing it and even more importantly, eliminating it.
