Automatic Cloud and Pour Point Analyzer
$7,000.00The Automatic Cloud and Pour Point Analyzer is a state of the art piece of equipment for measuring cloud point by optical detection and pour point with automatic tilt. The cloud point is an index of the lowest temperature of a petroleum product or a biodiesel fuel’s utility for certain applications. Wax crystals of sufficient quantity can plug filters used in some fuel systems. The pour point of a petroleum product is an index of the lowest temperature of its utility for certain applications. Flow characteristics, such as pour point, can be critical for the correct operation of lubricating oil systems, fuel systems, and petroleum blending and pipeline operations.

Automatic Density Meter
$5,000.00Density is a fundamental physical property that can be used in conjunction with other properties to characterize the quality of crude oils, light and heavy fractions of petroleum and petroleum products. The test method covers the determination of the density or relative density of crude oils, petroleum distillates and viscous oils that can be handled in a normal fashion as liquids at test temperatures between 15 and 35°C.

Automatic Heated Oil Test Centrifuge
$3,000.00Fully automatic bench top centrifuge designed expressly for petroleum testing applications. Features a 4-1/2” LCD touch screen control panel. This integrated touch screen can be used to turn the heat on and off, set the duration of the test, set the RCF/RPM values and choose the type of rotor assembly and corresponding glassware to be used during the test. The Servoed motor speed mechanism allows the user to simply set the desired speed and the instrument will attain that speed. This mechanism calculates RPM based on the given RCF and type of rotor selected. The large, clear, top opening lid provides for easy access to the rotor and tube holders and for cleaning of the unit. The lid has a 18-1/2” diameter viewing window allowing the operator to view inside the chamber for checking the status of the rotor and checking for possible spillage of the centrifuge tubes. Molded PTFE cushions provide for maximum protection and easy positioning of the tubes. The Centrifuge comes equipped with a safety lockout mechanism. Upon emergency shutdown, the door is locked and cannot be unlocked until the unit comes to a complete stop, the unit is turned back on, and the stop/unlock key is pressed on the touch screen display. Furthermore, the centrifuge cannot start while the door of the chamber is open and the latch is not engaged. The “Nitrogen Purge” feature allows for a slow release of nitrogen into the bowl of the centrifuge. This feature requires an external nitrogen gas source and can easily connect to an inlet port located at the back of the unit.

Automatic Pensky-Martens Closed Cup Flash Point Tester
$19,800.00The Automatic Pensky-Martens Closed Cup Flash Point Analyzer represents a perfect union of next-generation technology with traditional robust quality. The system software runs on an integrated processor PC running the latest Windows operating system. The 8.4” touch screen interface fully displays all operator parameters and results on a single screen. A three (3) position mechanical lift system for the cover and motor assembly is fully automated and software selectable: Open – Clean – Test for one touch positioning of the test cup. The instrument comes standard with two flash detector systems including a thermocouple and ionization ring detection. Over 65,000 results of data can be stored on the local hard drive. Integrated Dual Fan System directly cools the test cup and the environment around test cup. An unlimited number of user programs can be applied, including a quick test that safely tests from ambient, puts the flash point result into the EFP of the official run, and prompts user to refresh the sample, virtually assuring no fires ever occur. In addition, the instrument comes standard with an inert gas fire suppression system.

Automatic Volumetric Karl-Fischer Titrator
$7,000.00The actual curve and the measurement drift during titration process appear in the display and you can see the titration solvent consumption. Standard methods for different applications are programmed.
The measurement uses a potentiometric titration method in an anhydrous medium. The titration with titrant starts, once the sample is dosed into the reagent. The user has to enter the sample weight into the menu. The titration speed is precisely adjusted to the reaction rate by control algorithms. The titration is performed automatically until the endpoint indication of measurement. At the end of the measurement, results are shown in ppm water or several other units.

Digital Penetrometer
$8,000.00Microprocessor-based penetrometer loaded with advanced features to provide ease of operation and highly reproducible consistency measurements of petroleum products. Microprocessor control provides a full range of measurement and reporting options, and operation is simplified by four user-programmable presets that facilitate lowering the penetrator tip to the sample surface.
Automatically timed penetrations—The penetrometer defaults to the standard ASTM interval of 5.0 seconds, or the operator may conveniently program a different interval in the range between 0.1 and 9999.9 seconds (in 0.1 second increments). A curing or temperature stabilization period may also be programmed by the operator (to delay the release of the penetrator into the sample) and for added convenience all selected parameters are retained in memory and automatically repeated in subsequent tests until changed by the operator. Separate keypad controls for each parameter simplify operation. Penetration and delay intervals count down on a large, easy to read LCD on the head of the unit.
Convenient measurement and reporting options—Penetration measurements in the full range of 0 – 620 in 1⁄10mm scale are reported in either 1⁄10mm or 1⁄100mm increments at the operator’s option. For quality control testing, a penetration range can be entered into memory prior to testing. If a test result falls outside of the programmed range, an audible signal and visual error message alert the operator of a failed sample. Test results are displayed in digital format on a large LCD readout on the head of the penetrometer and can be communicated to a printer or computer via a built-in RS232 interface.
Simplified penetrator tip placement—Correct placement of the penetrator tip on the sample surface is essential for accurate penetration test results. The Koehler Digital Penetrometer has four operator programmable presets that lower the penetrator to the sample surface height at the touch of a button, greatly simplifying the process to ensure reproducibility. A fine adjustment button permits slight adjustments as needed. Full manual operation is also available with the use of coarse and fine push button controls and built-in magnifier and illuminator arms. When testing electrically conductive samples, a built-in circuit senses the sample surface for automatic placement. After testing, the penetrometer head returns to a raised position at the touch of a button to facilitate cleaning of the penetrator and changing of the sample.
More convenience features—The detachable machined base provides a large platform to accommodate a wide range of sample containers and constant temperature cylinders. It removes easily to permit the head assembly to be reversed (for use with a constant temperature bath) or mounted directly to a bath housing or other location. A built-in rechargeable battery pack permits field operation and provides back-up in the event of power interruption. Battery recharges automatically during operation of the penetrometer on standard AC electrical service.
