Report of Test on Lubricating Oil Low Pressure Alarm Contact Maker, Manufactured and Submitted by Detroit Lubricating Co.

Abstract

The object of this test was to determine the suitability of the contact maker for the Naval service for installation in lubricating oil systems, as a device to operate an alarm when the pressure falls below a predetermined setting. The contact maker was set up at this Laboratory in an air pressure system, shown on plate 1. Prior to conducting any tests, it was adjusted as closely as possible to meet Naval requirements. Particular attention was given the contact maker while under test for endurance and accuracy to note any change occurring in it operating points. Concluding these tests, it was subjected to over pressure and shock integrity tests.
