FAQs of Cloud and Pour Point Apparatus:
Q: How does the Cloud and Pour Point Apparatus determine cloud and pour points?
A: It uses manual sample preparation in borosilicate glass test jars, cooled in a stainless steel bath with air or ice-salt. The sample is observed visually, using a thermometer (range: -60C to +50C), for the temperature at which cloud or pour point occurs, following ASTM D97 or D2500 methods.
Q: What are the main benefits of using this apparatus for petroleum analysis?
A: This device provides highly accurate (1C) cloud and pour point results, facilitated by robust insulation and corrosion-resistant materials. It delivers compliance with globally recognized standards for repeatability and reliability, while integrated safety features protect users during operation.
Q: When should manual stirring be performed during testing?
A: Manual stirring with the provided rod is done as specified in ASTM D97 and D2500 procedures, typically during sample cooling to ensure homogeneity and accurate temperature measurement.
Q: Where is the Cloud and Pour Point Apparatus suitable for use?
A: It is ideal for laboratories, manufacturing units, quality control centers, exporters, and service providers handling petroleum products, especially where adherence to ASTM D97 or D2500 is required.
Q: What accessories are included with the apparatus?
A: The package comes complete with test jars (borosilicate glass), a manual stirring rod, analog thermometer, a polished stainless steel bath, and sample holders for convenient operation.
Q: How does overheat protection enhance safety during operation?
A: Overheat protection automatically prevents the device from exceeding safe temperature limits, minimizing the risk of damage to samples or equipment and reducing operator hazardsespecially during prolonged operation.
Q: What is the process for testing two samples simultaneously?
A: Place each sample in a separate test jar, then position both jars in the bath. Use the cooling system and manual stirring as required, monitoring temperatures with the analog thermometer until cloud or pour points are observed and recorded.
