Predictive Maintenance of Hydraulic Lifts through Lubricating Oil Analysis

This article examines the possibility of measuring lift maintenance through analysis of used hydraulic oil. Hydraulic oils have proved to be a reliable indicator for the maintenance performed on elevators. It has also been proved that the end users or the maintenance personnel do not always conform to the instructions of the elevators’ hydraulic machine manufacturer. Furthermore, by examining t...

Lubricating Oil Additives

1.1 Lubrication (Rizvi, 2009) The principle of supporting a sliding load on a friction reducing film is known as lubrication (Ludema, 1996). The substance of which the film is composed is a lubricant, and to apply it is to lubricate. These are not new concepts, nor, in their essence, particularly involved ones. Farmers lubricated the axles of their ox carts with animal fat centuries ago. But mo...

Lubricating Oil Pollution Detection Sensor Design

Metal abrasive particle content in lubricating oil is an important index to judge the degree of deterioration of lubricating oil. Established a spiral electrode capacitance sensor by the finite element software ANSYS, the simulation result shows that the sensor is sensitive to the content of metal abrasive particle in lubricating oil, not affect by the metal abrasive particle itself. According ...
