Features

Easy conversion between MON and RON methods is accomplished by use of the dual speed motor, with no need to change the flywheel
The dual speed motor with slide base steadily provides constant octane engine speeds as per ASTM D2699 and D2700 methods during operation
The engine crankcase is designed with high strength and rigidity for various fuel types to ensure long service life and carefree operation
The cylinder assembly allows the compression ratio to be changed by adjusting the cylinder height, which is adjusted by the electric motor assembly
The dial indicator is installed on the octane engine for direct reference to the cylinder height
The compression ratio and ignition timing are displayed directly on the operating panel, and it displays the compensated reading for barometric pressure
With digital knock signal adjustment, combustion knock is converted into a stable and accurate analog signal to improve accuracy and efficiency
Through the engine's safety system, the engine auto-stops with various fault indications
With the exhaust surge tank system, the engine eliminates resonance pulses and back pressure for more consistent and accurate results
The intake air humidity equipment regulates the moisture content of the intake air as per the ASTM specifications

Test Method

This laboratory test method covers the quantitative determination of the knock rating of liquid spark-ignition engine fuel in terms of Research Octane Number and the Motor Octane Number, including fuels that contain up to 25% v/v of ethanol. The sample fuel is tested using a standardized single cylinder, four-stroke cycle, variable compression ratio, carbureted engine run in accordance with a defined set of operating conditions.
