Road Vehicles – Cleanliness of Components and Systems
1 Scope
WARNING: The use of this document can involve hazardous materials, operations and
equipment. This document does not purport to address all of the safety problems
associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this document to establish
appropriate safety and health practices and to determine the applicability of any other
restrictions prior to its use.
This document specifies requirements for applying and documenting methods for determining
particulate contamination on functionally-relevant components and systems (cleanliness
inspection) of road vehicles.
A cleanliness inspection comprises the basis of an assessment of technical cleanliness, which
is performed, for example, under the following circumstances:
--- initial inspection and evaluation;
--- inspection of incoming and outgoing components; and
--- quality control or monitoring of manufacturing processes relevant to cleanliness (e.g.
cleaning, surface treatment and assembly processes).
This document is intended to improve the informative quality and comparability of test results.
It also defines the standardized expression of cleanliness specifications and cleanliness test
results in the quality chain of the automotive industry.
This document does not apply to the following:
--- detection of filmy contamination (grease, oils, etc.);
--- application of non-quantifiable particulate detection methods on test components (e.g.,
visual assessment, wipe test with clean cloth, etc.); and
--- characterization of operating fluids (fuel, oils, coolants, brake fluid, etc.).
This document does not define any cleanliness limit values for specific components or systems.
The degree of cleanliness required for a specific component or system is dependent on a number
of highly individual factors. Cleanliness specifications are intended to be undertaken only by
specialists who not only know the component concerned but also the system it is built into, the
later conditions of use, technically-feasible practices and possible consequences for
manufacturing processes and the supply chain. Guidance for deriving limit values can be found
in Annex H.
2 Normative References
The provisions in following documents become the essential provisions of this Document
through reference in this Document. For the dated documents, only the versions with the dates
indicated are applicable to this Document; for the undated documents, only the latest version
(including all the amendments) is applicable to this Document.
ISO 11500 Hydraulic Fluid Power – Determination of the Particulate Contamination Level
of a Liquid Sample by Automatic Particle Counting Using the Light-Extinction Principle
NOTE: GB/T 37163-2018 Hydraulic Fluid Power - Determination of the Particulate Contamination
Level of a Liquid Sample by Automatic Particle Counting Using the Light-Extinction Principle
(ISO 11500:2008, MOD)
3 Terms and Definitions
For the purposes of this Document, the following terms and definitions apply.
3.1 Active component
Component which may set the fluid in motion or be activated by the fluid during operation.
EXAMPLE: Pump, cylinder, distributor, injector, valve regulator.
3.2 Aerosol formation
Atomization of a liquid to create small droplets.
NOTE: e.g., in pressure-rinsing due to the shape of nozzles or impaction of the pressure-rinsing jet on a
surface.
3.3 Agglomerate
Two or more particles which are in intimate contact and cannot be separated by gentle stirring
and the small shear forces thus generated.
3.4 Agitation
Extraction method implemented for internal surfaces.
NOTE: Its cleaning effect is based on the turbulent change in direction of the test liquid inside the
component.
3.5 Air cleanliness class
Specification of air quality based on the concentration of particles in a defined volume of air.
