High Temperature Dropping Point Apparatus

Test MethodThe ASTM D2265 dropping point test permits higher temperatures than the ASTM D566 method anduses a different heating procedure: the test cell is inserted in an aluminum block oven maintained ata constant temperature that is higher than the expected dropping point of the sample. The sampletemperature then rises to the dropping point without operator control.Features and Benefits Conforms to ASTM D2265 and D4950 specificationsFour-sample testing capabilityMicroprocessor programmable high accuracy temperature control APPARATUS :- Tests dropping points of lubricating greases at temperatures of up to 400C(752F). Includes thermostatically controlled aluminum block oven and six complete dropping pointassemblies. Six-place oven has large viewing ports with fluorescent backlighting for excellent visibility.Microprocessor PID control provides quick temperature stabilization without overshoot and the bathis protected by an overtemperature control circuit that interrupts power should block temperatureexceed a programmed cut-off point. Dual LED displays provide actual and setpoint temperaturevalues in C/F format. Communications software (RS232, etc.), ramp-to-set and other enhancedfeatures are available as extra cost options. Microprocessor temperature control with digital readoutand overtemperature safety cut-off maintains block temperature with 0.5C stability.Electrical Connection :- 230V ac, 50 Hz, 9 amp.
