This paper discusses the problems associated with hydraulic fluid contamination in aircraft as well as the benefits to be achieved by fluid conditioning. Also discussed is fluid conditioning prior art and the proprietary designed preferred by Diagnetics. Finally, it is propose that fluid conditioning be used to insure test stand fluid health and cleanliness. This application, provided with routine oil analysis, might lead to much broader uses.
