Various Petroleum Properties

Description
Anton Paar provides a range of highly popular, user-friendly solutions for analyzing various petroleum properties in fuels, lubricating oils, greases, and bitumen. You can analyze the gum content residue, foaming characteristics of lubricating oils as well as the water separability of different kinds of oils. Anton Paar’s instruments are often also applicable for measurements on bio-based products.

Determination of gum content in fuels
The gum content is the residue of aircraft fuels, motor gasoline, and other volatile distillates which cannot be evaporated under a flow of air or steam. Like all other Anton Paar solutions for measuring various petroleum properties, Anton Paar’s gum tester is designed for maximum safety. The system’s unique multifunctional head reduces the risk of burn injuries. The gum tester works according to ASTM D381, ISO 6246, EN 6246, JIS K 2261, DIN 51784, FTM 791-3302, IP 131, IP 540.

Convenient and time-saving operation
The gum tester has a unique multifunctional head which is specially designed for the safe and simultaneous positioning of all jet tubes. This saves about ten minutes of time for each measurement. All conical jets can be lifted and lowered by one single turn. The simultaneous positioning of the conical jets not only enables a fast start of the measurement but also offers a guided positioning to prevent incorrect assembling.

Highest level of safety to protect the user
In contrast to other potentially dangerous setups, Anton Paar’s gum tester provides the highest level of safety. Due to the design of the unique multifunctional head it is not necessary to assemble the preheated instrument or manually handle any hot parts. Different safety features help protect the user.

Analysis of the foam characteristics of oils
With Anton Paar’s foam tester you can measure the foaming tendency and the foam stability of lubricating oils for high-speed gearing and high-volume pumping systems at specific temperatures. Its twin-bath arrangement with various accessories also allows high-temperature tests according to ASTM D6082 sequence IV and the methods ASTM D892, ISO 6247, JIS K 2518, and IP 146.

Measurement of emulsion stability
The Anton Paar emulsifier DH 5 measures the ability of petroleum oils or synthetic fluids to separate from water in water-oil emulsions. The Herschel emulsifier is equipped with all the components you require for complete compliance with the standard methods ASTM D1401, ISO 6614.
Product list
Foam Tester

Foam Tester

The foam tester allows the determination of the foaming characteristics of lubricating oils at specific temperatures by empirically rating the foaming tendency and the foam stability.
GUM

GUM

Gum content is the residue of aircraft fuels, motor gasoline and other volatile distillates which cannot be evaporated.
Fuel samples of 50 mL are evaporated under controlled conditions of temperature and the flow of air or steam.
Herschel emulsifier: DH 5

Herschel emulsifier: DH 5

The DH 5 is a Herschel emulsifier that serves to measure the ability of petroleum oils or synthetic fluids to separate from water.
RCRT Anton Paar

RCRT Anton Paar

The semi-automatic RCRT with its gas-free furnace indicates coke-forming properties by determining the amount of carbon residue left after evaporation and pyrolysis of a sample.
SCO 1 Anton Paar

SCO 1 Anton Paar

The SCO 1 salinometer uses the conductivity method to measure the chloride (salt) concentration in crude oil. This measurement is based on the conductivity of a solution of crude oil in polar solvent when subjected to an alternating current.
Tempering Bath Anton Paar

Tempering Bath Anton Paar

In combination with hydrometers or pycnometers, this full-view tempering bath is suitable for density, API and specific gravity determinations on crude oils, petroleum products, oils, waxes, bitumen, asphalt cements, soft tar pitches, solvents and similar samples.
Copper Strip Tester

Copper Strip Tester

The copper strip tester is designed to assess the relative degree of corrosivity of aviation gasoline, aviation fuels, automotive gasoline, natural gasoline, cleaner's solvent, kerosene, diesel fuel, distillate fuel oil, lubricating oil and greases.
FIA Anton Paar

FIA Anton Paar

The FIA analyzer measures the total volume % of saturated hydrocarbons, non-aromatic olefins and aromatics in liquid petroleum products. A fluorescent indicator adsorption separates hydrocarbons in a column packed with silica gel. Ultraviolet light will make the fluorescent dyes in each zone visible.
