The Multi-pass filter test is the most common method to evaluate the performance of hydraulic filters. The test is conducted at a constant flow rate at constant temperature and very high dirt ingression in order to evaluate filter performance at accelerated test condition. This standard test does not represent operating condition of the modern hydraulic control systems. In order to precisely represent filter performance in the field in the laboratory, the Cyclic Stabilization Test (CST) has been developed. The CST can reliably measure the ability of the filter to control contamination in an even lower ingression environment. It also simulates cyclic flow condition to measure filter performance. In this paper, the CST is proposed as a more effective method for filter performance evaluation method.
