Frequently Asked Questions

Is there a field test kit available to analyze hydraulic fluid samples?

Skydrol.com - Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, but it is used only for a crude estimate of acid number, and not a precise numerical value. The Skydrol Test Kit is available from TBM Corporation, 314-721-5590, and other Skydrol distributors.

When should hydraulic fluid samples be taken?

Skydrol.com - Frequently Asked Questions

Why take samples of aircraft hydraulic fluid?

Skydrol.com - Frequently Asked Questions
The performance of the entire aircraft hydraulic system can be affected by the condition of the hydraulic fluid. If the hydraulic fluid additives are damaged or depleted, the hydraulic fluid may no longer perform adequately in the system. Only after sampling the hydraulic fluid for the purpose of fluid analysis can one determine the condition of the additives. This allows action to be taken before damage to the hydraulic system can occur.

How many samples can you analyze with one kit?

FAQ
The kit contains one microtitre plate with 96 wells. Often, 16 wells are used for standards (duplicate samples) which leave 80 wells for samples.

Is a home test kit for HIV available?

Frequently Asked Questions

What about dirt in the hydraulic fluid?

Stanley Hydraulic Tools Faq
Dirt in any system (air, electric, or hydraulic) will cause wear. Air tools suffer most from dirt because the compressor is sucking in dirt all the time and tool exhaust ports allow dirt to get into the tool. Since the hydraulic system is a sealed system, dirt gets in only by carelessness. And, to protect against this, the hydraulic system has a full-flow filter.

What happens when fuel is contaminated by hydraulic fluid?
