The Pour point describes a procedure for testing the fluidity of a petroleum product at a specified temperature. The Cloud point is defined as the temperature of a liquid specimen when the smallest observable cluster of wax crystals first appears upon cooling under prescribed conditions.

MAIN FEATURES:

Mimics the standard methods
Detection by specific optical fibre for CLOUD Point
Detection by ultra sonic sensor for POURPoint
Visualisation of the different cooling steps detection every 3°C or every 1°C
Programmable cooling slope
Quick fixation on measuring head
Stand alone or network multiple
Easy access to maintenance parameters by software
Easy access to hardware maintenance

SOFTWARE:

Computer interface through a user friendly software, accessible by touch screen
Connexion of external PC by Ethernet cable
Storage of 200 results in stand alone
Stand alone or network multiple
