K61002 Oil Test Centrifuge

Test Method
Centrifugation provides a convenient means of determining sediment and water content in crude oil, fuel oils, and middle distillate fuels. Also used in determining the precipitation number, demulsibility characteristics, trace sediments, and insolubles in used lubricating oils.

Features and Benefits
• Accommodates four (4) centrifuge tubes of either 6" and 8" conical ASTM types, pear-shaped tubes, or finger tubes

• Automatic control of acceleration ramp, centrifugation speed, and timing functions

• Digital speed and temperature displays

• Doubly-insulated to reduce heat loss

• Self balancing, quiet operation

• Sliding stainless steel lid

• Explosion resistant
