DIN 51819 Testing of Lubricants - Mechanical-Dynamic Test on Roller Bearing Lubricant Tester FE8

Bearing lubrication is vital to maintaining the performance and life of bearings. Lubrication helps separate moving parts such as rollers and raceways or balls relative to each other to prevent wear, tear and friction. With bearing lubrication, each part of the bearing is lubricated and heat generated within the bearing due to friction and other causes is removed.

The DIN 51819 standard, published by the German Standardization Institute (DIN), was prepared by the "Testing of lubricating oils, other oils and paraffins" working committee in the mineral oil and fuel standardization expert committee of the DIN standards committee for material testing.

This standard consists of the following subsections under the main heading “Testing of lubricants - Mechanical-dynamic testing on the roller bearing lubricant tester FE8”:

• DIN 51819-1 Part 1: General operating principles
• DIN 51819-2 Part 2: Test method for lubricating greases - Applied test bed: angular contact ball bearing or tapered roller bearing
• DIN 51819-3 Part 3: Lubricating oil method - Test bearings to be used: axial cylindrical roller bearings

The standard DIN 51819-1 describes the general operating principles for mechanical-dynamic testing on the rolling bearing lubricant tester FE8.

The DIN 51819-2 standard describes a procedure for the mechanical-dynamic test and determination of its effect in the mixed friction field of lubricating greases of NLGI classes 51818 to 1 according to the DIN 4 standard (mainly lubricating greases K according to the DIN 51825 standard). These tests are carried out in the FE8 roller bearing lubricant tester, lubricating grease on the friction and wear behavior of angular contact ball bearings and tapered roller bearings, at test temperature up to 200 degrees Celsius, at values ​​corresponding to the specified parameters of bearing load and rotational speed, otherwise under practical conditions.

The standard DIN 51819-3 is used for the mechanical-dynamic testing of lubricating oils on the bearing lubricant tester FE8, and the test bed to be used is an axial cylindrical roller bearing.

Among the numerous test, measurement, analysis and evaluation studies it provides for businesses in various sectors, our organization also provides mechanical-dynamic testing services on the roller bearing lubricant test device FE51819, within the scope of DIN 8 standard, with its trained and expert staff and advanced technological equipment.
