SAE J1165 2012 Edition, May 1, 2012
Reporting Cleanliness Levels of Hydraulic Fluids
Description / Abstract:
This SAE Recommended Practice has been formulated to advance and
endorse the use of the ISO (International Organization for
Standardization) Solid Contaminant Code as the universal means for
expressing the level of particulate contaminant in hydraulic fluid
and for specifying acceptable limits of cleanliness. Worldwide
approval was gained for this coding system because it provides a
simple, unmistakable, meaningful, and consistent means of
communication between suppliers and users. The code applies to all
types of hydraulic (liquid) fluids used in fluid power and control
systems as applied to self-propelled machines as referenced in
J1116.
Purpose - The purpose of this recommended practice is to provide a practical and uniform method for graphically representing the contamination level of a fluid and assigning its proper ISO Cleanliness Code. Although the approval code is explicit and offers no opportunity for misinterpretation, flexibility in application is provided to satisfy the customs of the cooperating nations. This recommended practice is intended to facilitate the use of the ISO code and encourage its promulgation throughout the industry.
