15840-0 NEW AIR RELEASE VALUE APPARATUS

The NEW Seta Apparatus is designed to determine the air release properties of hydrocarbon based oils in accordance with ASTM, IP and other methods. The apparatus is a benchtop instrument with integrated density balance, heater, temperature control system, sinker warmer, pressure regulator and microprocessor based control system. A unique slider arrangement allows easy positioning of the test vessel throughout the test cycle.

Description

Lubricant and oils containing excess amounts of en-trained air can lead to serious disruptions of equipment in operation , increased oxidation tendency and shortened lubricating oils to release en-trained air and gases.

The sample is heated and subjected to airflow at a specified rate, the duration needed for en-trained air to reduce in volume is recorded as the air bubble separation time.

FEATURES

  • Integrated solution
  • Multi-station sample handling
  • Touch screen display
  • Simple test menu
  • Automated density monitoring
  • Circulated sample heating
  • Quick connectors for easy handling
  • Integral sinker warmer
  • Automatic result calculation
  • Memory for 10,000 tests results
  • Full LIMS connectivity

METHODS

ASTM D3427, IP 313, BS 2000 Part 313, ISO 9120, DIN 51 381, NFT 60-149
