ISO Codes & Noria Chart Explained 8-1-11 PDF

This document discusses fluid contamination measurement using ISO Cleanliness Codes. It explains how ISO Codes report particle counts in three size ranges to indicate contamination levels. Lower ISO Code numbers indicate cleaner fluid with fewer large particles. The document shows how using a FilterMag contamination control system to filter particles down to 1 micron can improve equipment life up to 6 times by achieving ISO Code drops of 2-3 levels from baseline. A FilterMag represents a one-time investment that provides lifetime protection through reduced contamination.

Reporting Cleanliness Levels


ISO Cleanliness Code 4406:99
! Convenient format for reporting particle count data
! Graph of particle size vs. particle concentration

! Simplified coding ! Focuses on three particle size ranges:


! Total number of particles > 4!m ! Total number of particles > 6!m ! Total number of particles >14!m

How do we measure fluid contamination?


Structure of ISO-Code:!
amount of dirt particles! in a 100 ml sample! larger than these specied sizes:! 4m / 6m / 14m / 21m!
22!

Example:!
larger than 4m = 2,234,000!

ISO Code =
