To maintain turbine oil integrity during handling:
Use Clean Equipment: Ensure all transfer equipment, such as pumps, hoses, and containers, are clean and compatible with the oil.
Minimize Exposure: Limit the oil’s exposure to air and moisture during transfer to prevent oxidation and contamination.
Avoid Mixing Oils: Do not mix different oil types or brands unless confirmed compatible.
Use Proper Techniques: Employ closed transfer systems when possible to reduce contamination risk.
Personnel Training: Train staff on proper handling procedures and the importance of maintaining oil cleanliness.
Monitoring: Regularly test oil after handling to ensure it remains within specification.
Proper handling preserves the oil’s properties and extends its service life.
