1) % m/m means by mass, e.g. a water content of 0.20% m/m means that the water
content is 0.20% of the mass of the total solution.
If one of the limits of the system oil is at a value given in the table above, applicable
procedures must be done to correct the problem. Such procedures can be purification
(decrease of the flow rate, adjustment of temperatures), treatment in a renovating
tank (settling tank) or partial exchange of the oil charge. It is recommended that you
speak to the oil supplier in such a condition.
The oil condemnation limits are given in
Table 2 . If the oil condition has so much
deterioration that the purifier and filters cannot make the condition better, some of the
oil charge must be replaced. The oil charge will then go back to a satisfactory
performance level.

These limits are a guide. The condition of the oil in the system cannot be fully
calculated by one parameter. Other oil parameters must be used to find the cause of
the problem, and the applicable treatment.
If the Base Number (BN) of the system oil increases suddenly, do a check of the
piston rod gland box and piston rod condition.
