14.3 Cleanliness Class - NAS 1638
Like ISO 4406, NAS 1638 describes particle concentrations in liquids. The analysis
methods can be applied in the same manner as ISO 4406:1999.
In contrast to ISO 4406, certain particle ranges are counted in NAS 1638 and
attributed to measurement references.
The following table shows the cleanliness in relation to the particle concentration
determined.

Increasing the class by 1 causes the particle count to double on average.
