Unusual Particle Counts Confusing
Bill Pyles, Regional Service Manager, Nortrax

I find it odd more particles would show up after the filter
unless the filter was shedding comtaminates. A microscopic look
at the the particles may tell me it's filter media, possibly a
defective batch of filters. I'd also cut open the questional filter.
Secondly, I'd run a sample of new oil to check the particle count
machine and review how the sample's are being taken and the condition
of storage of the bottles. It's possible the comtaminates were
in the bottle or tubes.
