K39180 Demulsibility Characteristics Bath
Test Method
Tests the ability of medium to high viscosity oils to separate from water when water contamination and turbulence are encountered. The sample is stirred together with distilled water for 5 minutes at constant temperature. After a specified settling period, the degree of separation is measured by volume and the percentage of water in oil is determined. For lighter oils and synthetic fluids, the ASTM D1401 Water Separability Test is used.

Features and Benefits
• Conforms to the specifications of ASTM D2711 and DIN 51353

• Variable 150-8000rpm stirrer speed

• Choice of digital or analog bath models

K39180 Demulsibility Characteristics Bath
Stirrer – Complete stirrer assembly per Fig. 1 and 2 of ASTM D2711, including high speed 1/15hp 8000rpm drive motor, stainless steel propeller shaft, top, center and bottom bearings, and steel motor housing with positioning plate. Entire assembly mounts vertically in K39110/K39119 Constant Temperature Bath. Built-in tachometer disc allows for precise stirrer speed adjustment. (Order tachometer separately).

Constant Temperature Baths – Standard model holds two K39100 Stirrers and two K39120 Separatory Funnels in proper alignment for demulsibility characteristics testing. Stirrers mount securely on a stainless steel support plate having brackets for testing and drainage positions. Separate motor speed controls (150-8000rpm range) are provided for each stirrer. All wetted parts are constructed of stainless steel. Order thermometer separately.

Visibility Baths – Visibility model has microprocessor digital temperature control with dual LED displays for setpoint and actual temperatures and an illuminated bath interior with window for viewing sample cylinders. A separate digital LED speed control is provided for each stirrer.
