    LUBRICATION
    WHY LUBRICATION??

    • Formation of protective film to

     Reduce friction
     Prevent corrosion
     Remove wear particles and debris
     Provide efficient cooling
     Reduce wear
     Shock absorption
     Overall life improvement
    LUBRICATION THEORY

    • Full film
    • Static
    • Hydrodynamic
    • Elastohydrodynamic
    • Application of pressure / load
    • Depends upon speeds, loads, lubricant viscosity
    • Boundary layer
    • Layer separation not complete
    • Results from insufficient lube, incorrect lube
    GREASE Vs OIL

    When greases?

     Normal speed and temp conditions


     Simpler / cheaper installation
     Better adhesion
     Protection against impurities
     Less frequent application required

    When Oils?

     High Speed and temp


     Excellent cleaning and flushing characteristics
     Can be used in recirculative systems
     Can serve better in excessive dirt environment
     More stable than greases
    LUBE OIL PROPERTIES

    Viscosity
    Viscosity index
    Flash point
    Pour point

    WDA Concept
     Every lubricated wear surface generates particles
     There is a gradual build up of small particles in a normal system
     When abnormal wear begins, there is no sharp instantaneous increase in the
    concentration of small particles present in the system
     Large particles, however, reach a dynamic equilibrium in a normal system
    (filtration)
     When abnormal wear begins, there is a dramatic increase in the
    concentration of large particles
     Therefore, detection, measurement and analysis of these large wear particles
    can provide early and accurate information about the condition of the
    machine
    WDA Methodology
    • Particle Size
    • Composition
    • Shape
    • Concentration
    WDA Trend Graph
    Oil analysis Vs WDA
    • Lubricant Analysis
    – Monitoring of the lubricant
    – Condition of the lubricant
    – Viscosity, TAN, TBN, Water content, Insolubles

    • Wear debris Analysis


    – Monitoring of wear particles
    – Condition of the machine
    – Quantity of wear particles in ppm
    WDA : Advantages and disadvantages

    Advantages:
    Provides early warning
    Identifies lubricant contamination
    Identifies specific failing components
    Helps monitor component deterioration

    Disadvantages:
    Trending is necessary
    Accuracy depends on sampling point, skill
