Lab Expo offers Residue Carbon Testers designed to measure the carbon residue left behind after the evaporation of liquid samples. They feature a simple and integrated design, combining the furnace and controller in a compact structure. They can perform up to four sample determinations simultaneously. These testers feature Loon and MIG burners, ensuring precise heating. These testers equipped with digital temperature controllers, ensure accurate temperature management for consistent results, meeting ASTM D189 standards.
1.What is a Residue Carbon Tester used for?
A Residue Carbon Tester is used to determine the amount of carbon residue left after the evaporation of petroleum products and other liquid samples under controlled conditions.
2.What does an integrated design mean in a Residue Carbon Tester?
An integrated design means that the furnace and controller are built into a single compact unit. This eliminates the need for separate components and reduces space requirements in the lab.
3.What does it mean that the tester can perform four sample determination simultaneously?
This means the Residue Carbon Tester is designed with multiple test positions, allowing up to four samples to be tested at the same time under identical conditions.
4.What are Loon and MIG burners in the context of Residue Carbon Tester?
Loon and MIG burners are types of precision burners used in carbon residue testers to provide controlled and uniform heating. They are engineered to deliver stable flame characteristics critical for accurate residue analysis.
5.What is ASTM D189 and how does the temperature controller support compliance?
ASTM D189 is a standard test method for determining carbon residue in petroleum products. The digital controller helps maintain the specific heating rate and final temperature required by this method, ensuring valid and comparable results.
