Density and Refractometry Get Density and API Gravity Simply and Accurately with One Click Density is a fundamental physical property that can be used in conjunction with other properties to characterize the quality of crude oils and refined products. LiquiPhysics Excellence Density Meters (and Refractometers) ensure secure and trouble free measurements of your samples and comply with ASTM and other relevant standards. From density measurement of very difficult samples such as bitumen to a multiparameter analysis of lubricants including color: METTLER TOLEDO offers a One Click solution for every need. Bubble Free Sampling Gasoline testing according to ASTM D4052 dictates density determinations are performed at 15 C on chilled samples. The SC1 single sample automation system ensures high repeatability and excludes operator errors at a minimal requirement of cleaning solvents. Difficult Samples Highly viscous or solid petroleum products are no problem for the powerful SC1H and SC30H heated automation units. Sampling, measurement and thorough cleaning are completely automated and smart error detection securely excludes the presence of bubbles. Efficient and Easy The automation solutions not only provide productivity gain, but also help to prevent measurement errors and save rinsing solvents. Even untrained operators always get the correct results with One Click. Temperature compensation tables according to API and different units are built-in. Safety First The automated measuring systems protect operators from direct contact with toxic solvents or vapors. The toxic and smelly waste is collected in a separate container, which can be equipped with the LevelSens to avoid overfilling. ErgoSens allows the start of measurements without removing protective gloves. Traceable Results Certified reference material, full user SOP guidance, method history and advanced data management help you to meet ISO and regulation requirements. Enforce check standards to be tested with tailored tolerances for complete confidence in your density meter or refractometer. Watch the video about the smart LiquiPhysics solution 4 5
Titration Compact and Excellence Titrators for all your Petrochemical Analyses Whether testing water content in crude oils by Karl Fischer titration or TAN, TBN, or mercaptan content in lubricants, our wide offering of titrators will meet your ASTM, UOP, IP or ISO testing requirements. Test all your water and scrubbing solutions from processing in refineries as well. Titrators for All Samples No matter your technique; potentiometric, colorimetric, Karl Fischer, electrometric or coulometric, we have the instrument for your refinery solution and oil testing needs. Their intuitive and flexible methods make meeting standard requirements easy. Flexible Automation Keep up with the high demand of petrochemical titrations with flexible automation programming. Our high pressure PowerShower TM eliminates sample carry over. Rest assured your sensors are clean and conditioned for accurate and repeatable titrations, all day long, every day. Keep your Laboratory Safe Protect operators from the hazardous and volatile solvents and reagents used in oil and crude analysis with our Solvent Manager TM, membrane and peristaltic pumps. Automatically move tested samples to waste vessels monitored with LevelSens TM, ensuring no overflows. Rugged and Suited Sensors Sharing over 40 years of sensor manufacturing experience; our rugged and tested sensors hold up against the non-aqueous solvents and viscous nature of petrochemical titrations. Be sure and secure of your analyses with our built in PlugnPlay sensor chips. Secure Titration Management Connecting to our balances for automated weight transfer saves time and eliminates transcription errors. Protect your method programming with tailored user management and exportable memory copies. Watch what One Click can do for you 6 7
Dropping Point Automated Drop and Softening Point Standard-Compliant and Video-Recorded The METTLER TOLEDO DP Excellence instruments enable automatic and video-recorded dropping and softening point testing of pitch, asphalt/bitumen, polymers and waxes. Standard compliant cups and test methods, secure sample preparation and the innovative visual camera observation with digital image analysis ensure comparable and reliable results. D A B C Automated Lubricant Grease Drop Point Testing Time consuming manual lubricant drop point tests according to ASTM and IP standards can be securely automated with the DP70 Excellence system. The video-based image analysis reliably detects the drop point event. Operator-dependent result interpretation becomes a thing of the past. Standard-Compliant Softening Point Tests of Bituminous Samples METTLER TOLEDO instrument specified ASTM D3104/D3461 standards are widely accepted for quality control of bituminous materials. The video-recorded process may be played back for verification. The test efficiency is notably improved by simultaneous analysis of two samples. Comparable Drop Point Tests of Polyolefines and Waxes Polymers and waxes can be easily prepared with the smart sample preparation tool. It enables repeatable sample preparation by controlled filling of the drop point cup with the pre-melted sample. The ASTM D3954 based drop point test ensures excellent result comparability. Sample Carrier Increases Safety and Efficiency A cup lid with vent hole prevents spilling and furnace contamination in case of expanding sample B Standard compliant cup for dropping or softening point determinations C disposable glass collector The sample carrier keeps all parts together and can be placed into the stand D. One Click Results The color touch screen enables intuitive operation and provides clear information. Just one click is all that is needed to start the measurement the instrument does the rest for you. The end of the measurement is signaled with an acoustic tone and measured results are displayed.
