Introducing the Kinematic Viscosity Bath, a constant temperature bath designed for accurate glass capillary viscometry determinations. With microprocessor PID circuitry, this bath provides precise and reliable temperature control within ASTM specified stability and uniformity throughout the operating range. It accommodates seven glass capillary viscometers of various types and has LED illumination inside the bath for easy viewing. The built-in cooling coil can be connected to tap water or a recirculating water chiller to facilitate temperature control at ambient or below ambient temperatures. The bath conforms to ASTM D445 and related specifications, with a temperature range of 20°C to 100°C and…
Introducing the Ramsbottom Carbon Residue Apparatus, a thermostatically controlled coking furnace that determines the carbon residue left after evaporation and pyrolysis of a sample oil. This provides an indication of deposit-forming tendencies of fuels and guidelines for processing refinery products. The cast-iron block type furnace reaches the standard test temperature of 550°C rapidly and controls with ±1°C stability, thanks to microprocessor temperature control with a °C/°F switchable digital setpoint and display. An over-temperature control circuit automatically interrupts power to the unit if the block temperature exceeds the programmed cut-off point, ensuring safety for both operator and equipment. The Ramsbottom Carbon…
