ASTM D189 Conradson Carbon Residue Tester

KN-189 Conradson Carbon Residue Tester conforms to ASTM D189 Standard Test Method for Conradson Carbon Residue of Petroleum Products. This apparatus covers the determination of the amount of carbon residue left after evaporation and pyrolysis of an oil, and is intended to provide some indication of relative coke-forming propensities. This test method is generally applicable to relatively nonvolatile petroleum products which partially decompose on distillation at atmospheric pressure, our KN-189 Provides an indication of relative coke forming properties of petroleum oils. The residue remaining after a specified period of evaporation and pyrolysis is calculated as a percentage of the original sample.
