ASTM D5708 ICP for Crude Oils and Residual Fuels
When fuels are combusted, vanadium present in the fuel can form corrosive compounds. The value of crude oils can be determined, in part, by the concentrations of nickel, vanadium, and iron. Nickel and vanadium, present at trace levels in petroleum fractions, can deactivate catalysts during processing. These test methods provide a means of determining the concentrations of nickel, vanadium, and iron.

ASTM D1796 Water And Sediment In Fuel Oils By The Centrifuge Method
The water and sediment content of fuel oil is significant because it can cause corrosion of equipment and problems in processing. A determination of water and sediment content is required to measure accurately net volumes of actual fuel oil in sales, taxation, exchanges, and custody transfers.

ASTM D6560 Apparatus for Paraffin, Resins and Asphaltenes Contents in Crude Oil
KN-6560 Apparatus for Paraffin, Resins and Asphaltenes Contents in Crude Oil in Crude Petroleum and Petroleum Products conforms to ASTM D6560 Standard Test Method for Determination of Asphaltenes (Heptane Insolubles) in Crude Petroleum and Petroleum Products and SY/T 7550 Determination of Paraffin, Resins and Asphaltenes Contents in Crude Oil. Asphaltenes are the organic molecules of highest molecular mass and carbon-hydrogen ratio normally occurring in crude petroleum and petroleum products containing residual material. They may give problems during storage and handling if the suspension of asphaltene molecules is disturbed through excess stress or incompatibility.

KN-40A Channel Point Tester for Gear Oil
KN-40A Channel Point Tester for Gear Oil conforms to FTMS-791B-3465.1 and SH/T 0030. It is used for determination of channel point of gear oil at low temperature. The test consists of storing an Oil sample for 18 hours at a low temperature, cutting a channel in the lubricants with a metal strip and determining whether the lubricants flow together to covet the bottom of the container within 10 seconds.

ASTM D3162 Dissolved Gases In Transformer Oil By GC TOGA
Transformer oil is a highly refined mineral oil used in electrical transformers. It has excellent insulating properties, suppresses corona and arcing, and serves as a coolant. In case of electrical errors, the oil breaks down to gases, which identity and content can be related to the type and severity of the electrical fault. This information is very useful in the preventative maintenance program.

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.
