p>1.1 This test method covers the determination of coagulated pentane insolubles in used lubricating oils by a paper filtration method.
1.2 This test method was originally developed by the Fuels, Lubricants, and Environmental Committee (FLE) of the Locomotive Maintenance Officers Association (LMOA).
1.3 This test method is used primary for testing used diesel engine oils from railroad locomotive service. It may be applied to other samples types but precision, bias, and significance have not been determined for samples other than used railroad locomotive diesel engine oils.
1.4 This test method, in general, does not correlate with Test Method D 893 on Insolubles in Lubricating Oils, since it uses separation by centrifugation and a more concentrated solution of anti-coagulant.
1.5 The correlation between this test method and Appendix A4 (Enhanced Thermal Gravimetric Analysis (TGA) Procedure) in Test Method D 5967 has not been investigated.
1.6 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as the standard. The values given in parentheses are for information only.
This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
