Description
ISO 11171 is a specific international standard that outlines requirements for calibration of automatic particle counters used in hydraulic fluids. It ensures accuracy and reliability in measuring the cleanliness of hydraulic fluids by defining methods for verifying the performance of particle counters. Compliance with ISO 11171 is crucial for manufacturers and users of particle counters to ensure consistent and traceable measurements in various industrial and hydraulic system applications.
Specifications:
- Calibration Methods: Specifies calibration procedures for automatic particle counters to ensure accurate and repeatable measurements.
- Particle Size Ranges: Defines the particle size ranges that the particle counter should be capable of measuring, typically ranging from a few micrometers to larger sizes.
- Counting Efficiency: Specifies the counting efficiency requirements to ensure that the particle counter accurately detects particles within specified size ranges.
- Verification: Provides guidelines for verifying the performance of particle counters through calibration against certified calibration fluids.
- Measurement Uncertainty: Defines requirements for assessing and reporting measurement uncertainty to ensure reliable and traceable particle count results.
- Instrument Performance: Specifies performance criteria such as resolution, sensitivity, and repeatability that particle counters must meet to comply with the standard.
- Documentation: Requires documentation of calibration procedures, results, and uncertainties to demonstrate compliance with ISO 11171.
- Traceability: Ensures that calibration procedures and standards used are traceable to international standards to maintain measurement consistency and accuracy.
- Compliance: Ensures that particle counters meet the requirements set forth in ISO 11171 to provide reliable cleanliness assessment of hydraulic fluids.
