Automatic ASTM D2500 Cloud Point Tester
Automatic ASTM D2500 Cloud Point Tester
MT-CP405
The Automatic ASTM D2500 Cloud Point Tester is designed for determining the cloud point of petroleum products in accordance with ASTM D2500, GB/T 6986, and IP 219.
Introduction
Cloud point is the temperature at which wax crystals first appear in petroleum oils during cooling, causing the oil to become cloudy. This parameter is important for evaluating the low-temperature performance of fuels and lubricants, especially in cold environments.
Our Automatic Cloud Point Tester can also perform pour point testing according to ASTM D97 and GB/T 3535, as well as solidifying point determination according to GB/T 510, providing comprehensive analysis of the low-temperature properties of petroleum products.
The system uses intelligent microcontroller temperature control and compressor refrigeration technology to ensure stable and accurate testing. It is widely used in petroleum laboratories, lubricant manufacturers, power utilities, and research institutions.
Typical Applications
The Automatic Cloud Point Tester is suitable for testing low-temperature properties of:
- Transformer insulating oil
- Lubricating oils
- Light petroleum products
- Industrial oils
- Diesel fuel
Typical application environments include:
- Petroleum refineries
- Power generation and electrical utilities
- Lubricant production plants
- Oil storage and trading companies
- Research institutes and testing laboratories
