Reduce Oxidation with a Diffuser
A diffuser fitted to the return line of a hydraulic tank can reduce foaming and thus reduce oxidation and aeration, as well as decrease the risk of cavitation. It can also lessen the potential for varnish, erratic fluid flow, spongy hydraulics and overheating. 

Join us in Branson, Mo., on October 4-6 for
Machinery Lubrication training.

Particles Indicate Bearing Wear
From “The Practical Handbook of Machinery Lubrication”:

In general, the important parameters influencing bearing wear are contaminant particle size, concentration, hardness and lubricant film thickness. Increases in all of these parameters except film thickness will increase bearing wear. Increasing lubricant viscosity will reduce bearing wear for a given contamination level. Bearings operating in a contaminated lubricant exhibit a higher initial rate of wear than those not running in a contaminated lubricant. But with no further contaminant ingress, this wear rate quickly diminishes as the contamination particles are reduced in size as they pass through the bearing contact area during normal operation.
