What are the consequences of water ingress of excavator oil

https://www.xyexcavator.com/excavator/wheel-excavator/b75s-new-wheel-excavator.htmlWater ingress of engine oil is a common fault in the use of internal combustion engine. If the water in the engine oil is not treated in time, it will cause serious consequences. For example, the engine will be scrapped if there are faults such as cylinder scratch and sliding tile. Therefore, to prevent water from entering the engine oil is a problem that must be paid attention to at all times. Since the water inflow of engine oil is a common fault in the use of internal combustion engine, what consequences will be caused after the water inflow of engine oil? This article will outline this problem for reference only.

1. Generally, the water content in the engine oil is below 0.03%. If the water content exceeds 0.1%, the additives in the lubricating oil (such as antioxidants, detergent dispersants, etc.) will react with water and fail, and the performance of the engine oil will decline.

2. Under the high temperature inside the engine, the engine oil will react with the coolant, the engine oil will be emulsified, and the lubricating effect of the engine oil will be greatly reduced.

3. After the oxidation resistance of engine oil decreases, the organic acid generated by engine oil oxidation will react with water to generate inorganic acid, and these acidic substances will cause corrosion to engine components, resulting in rust or damage to parts.
