Cloud Point Analyzer conforms to ASTM D2500, D5771, D5772, D5773 and related test methodsFor Petroleum Products, cloud point and pour point of a petroleum product is an index of the lowest temperature of its utility for certain applications. The specimen is cooled at a specified rate and examined periodically. The highest temperature at which a cloud is first observed at the bottom of the test jar is recorded as the cloud point. The lowest temperature at which movement of the specimen is observed is recorded as the pour point.

Pour Point Analyzer conforms to ASTM D97, D5853, D5950 and related test methods
Stand alone system with Integrated Touch Screen Panel PC
Direct Cooling system eliminates the need for solvent cooling baths
One-stage cooling system provides temperatures as low as -45°C and a two-stage cooling system down to -80°C
Cloud Point measured by light pulsed emission on I.R spectrum through a coaxial fiber optic
Pour Point measured by two PT100 detection probes placed on the surface of the product and a mechanical moving arm bringing the test jar to a horizontal position

Cloud and Pour Point Test Equipment

Conforms to the specifications of	ASTM D97, D2500, D5853, D6074, D6158; IP 15, 219; ISO 3015, 3016; DIN 51597; FTM 791-201; NF T 60-105

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 highest temperature at which haziness is observed (cloud point), or the lowest temperature at which movement of the oil is observed (pour point), is reported as the test result.
