The first and only field proven non-liquid 'dry cylinder' RPVOT (RBOT)
instrument used for ASTM D2272 testing. The non-liquid Quantum
can be used for a number of tests evaluating formulated
engine oils, turbine
oils, and base oil
oxidation resistance. Meets methods ASTM D2272 (RPVOT formerly
RBOT), IP 229, D4742 (TFOUT), and new D7098 (TFOUT) methods.
The small, innovative, single-test design eliminates the mess and
dangers of hot bath oil and reduces the number or parts for quick test
turn-around and interchangeability between methods -- dramatically
increasing productivity.
A small quantity of oil is mixed with or brought in contact with
catalyst within an oxygen-pressurized chamber. The oil sample is
rotated at 100 RPM at a 30° angle until the recorded oxygen pressure in
the chamber falls rapidly and signals the end of the test.
Quantum Automation Package available for monitoring and
recording pressure and temperature with selectable end point
determinations.
