Dropping point determinations are used for identification and quality control purposes, and can be an indication of the highest temperature of utility for some applications. The sample is heated at a prescribed rate in a precision machined cup whose sides slope toward an opening at its center. The temperature at which a liquid drop first falls from the cup is the dropping point of the sample.

Cloud point and pour point are indicators of the lowest temperature of utility for petroleum products. The sample is periodically examined while it is being cooled in the cloud and pour point apparatus.

The Air Jet Erosion Test Rig has been developed to evaluate the erosion resistance of variety of materials and conforms to the specifications of ASTM G76 standard. The principle of operation consists of subjecting the test sample to a jet of air carrying the erodent, through a tungsten carbide nozzle of a known diameter. The impingement of the erodent particles on the test sample surface causes erosion and this is quantified by weight loss method. The particle velocity is controlled by varying the flow rate of air and the erodent feed rate is varied by changing the speed of the conveyor system which delivers the erodent to the jet of air. The particle velocity is measured with a well-established Double Disc arrangement method. The test sample temperature can be varied from ambient to 4000C and test sample inclination is infinitely variable 0-900 with respect to the jet of erodent particles.

The LabVantage Enterprise platform is designed to scale from small single-site deployments all the way up to a global enterprise. Complex organizations tackling a large volume of data and a wide variety of work, often across multiple labs in multiple geographies and languages, can rely on the LabVantage Enterprise solution hosted from a single data center. There is no need for costly Citrix farms or complex distributed systems.

LabVantage also goes beyond a traditional LIMS to incorporate functionality found in multiple lab systems – such as ELN and LES.

Get the world’s most advanced and flexible LIMS – without upfront investment and infrastructure.

Smart Upstream Sampling and Downstream Filter Scanning System. Incorporating an ergonomic lightweight-scanning probe with touchscreen user interface, the ScanAir Pro System also includes a SOLAIR portable particle counter and a dual-port diluter that can be remotely switched between measurements from the touch screen handle.

Each airborne particle characterising Real Time Remote is designed specifically based on customers’ requirements.

Besides being the best portable in the market, the Solair can be connected to a manifold and used in a real time monitoring system. Add a Scan Air Pro filter scanning probe and do filter integrity testing. High pressure gas adapters allow you to do particle testing in ultra-pure gasses. Integrate environmental sensors and you have the world’s most versatile portable particle counter.
