What does ISO 4406 standardize?

  1. The process for manufacturing safety equipment

  2. Hydraulic power methods for oil/fluid cleanliness

  3. Workplace safety regulations

  4. Data management practices

The correct answer is: Hydraulic power methods for oil/fluid cleanliness

ISO 4406 standardizes the classification of contamination levels in fluids, specifically focusing on hydraulic fluids, oils, and other fluids used in hydraulic systems. This standard provides a method for measuring and reporting the cleanliness of these fluids, which is crucial for ensuring the proper functioning and longevity of hydraulic equipment. By defining specific codes and criteria for particulate contamination, ISO 4406 enables organizations to assess the level of cleanliness and take action to maintain or achieve the desired cleanliness levels. This is critical in industries where hydraulic systems operate under high pressure and where contamination can lead to equipment failure, increased maintenance costs, and reduced operational efficiency. The other choices do not pertain to the specific focus of ISO 4406, which is aimed at understanding and managing fluid cleanliness. Other standards cover safety equipment manufacturing, workplace safety regulations, and data management practices, but they do not address fluid contamination in the same way ISO 4406 does.
