This document specifies tests, procedures and a method of presenting the results concerning the parameters that define the main characteristics to be included in the supplier's literature of lubricators conforming to ISO 6301‑1.

This document can be applied:

— to facilitate the comparison of lubricators by standardizing test methods and presentation of test data;

— to assist in the proper application of lubricators in compressed-air systems.

The tests specified are intended to allow comparison between the different types of lubricators; they are not production tests to be carried out on each lubricator manufactured.
