Petroleum and related products - Determination of the ageing behaviour of inhibited oils and fluids - TOST test - Part 1 : procedure for mineral oils
ISO 4263-1:2003 specifies a method for the determination of the ageing behaviour of rust- and oxidation- inhibited mineral oils having a density less than that of water, used as turbine oils (categories TSA, TGA, TSE, TGE of ISO 6743-5, hydraulic oils (categories HL, HM, HR, HV, HG of ISO 6743-4), and circulating oils (category CKB of ISO 6743-6). Oils containing synthetic components can be tested by this procedure, but no precision statement is available yet for such fluids.This test method is widely used in specifications and is considered of value in comparing the oxidation stability of oils that are prone to contamination with water. However, because of the large number of individual field service applications, the correlation between the results of this test and actual service performance can vary markedly, and is best judged on experience.

Specifies a method for evaluating oxidation stability of inhibited steam-turbine oils in the presence of oxygen, water, and metallic copper and iron at an elevated temperature. The method is also used for testing other oils such as hydraulic oils and circulating oils having a relative density less than that of water and containing rust and oxidation inhibitors. This method is used for specification purposes and is considered of value in evaluating the oxidation stability of lubricants, especially those that are prone to water contamination.

The Requirements department helps you quickly locate within the normative text:
- mandatory clauses to satisfy,
- non-essential but useful clauses to know, such as permissions and recommendations.
The identification of these types of clauses is based on the document “ISO / IEC Directives, Part 2 - Principles and rules of structure and drafting of ISO documents ”as well as on a constantly enriched list of verbal forms.
