Standard: ASTM D2711
Test Method
Tests the ability of medium to high viscosity oils to separate from
water when water contamination and turbulence are encountered. The
sample is stirred together with distilled water for 5 min. at constant
temperature. After a specified settling period, the degree of separation
is measured by volume and the percentage of water in oil is determined.
For lighter oils and synthetic fluids, the ASTM D1401 Water
Separability Test is used.
. Conforms to the specifications of ASTM D2711
. Variable stirrer speed
. Choice of digital or analog bath models
Stirrer - Complete stirrer assembly per Fig. 1 and 2 of ASTM D2711,
including variable high speed drive motor, stainless steel propeller
shaft, top, center and bottom bearings, and steel motor housing with
positioning plate.
Constant Temperature Baths - Standard model holds two Stirrers and two
Separatory Funnels in proper alignment for demulsibility characteristics
testing. Stirrers mount securely on a stainless steel support plate
having brackets for testing and drainage positions. Separate motor speed
controls are provided for each stirrer. All wetted parts are
constructed of stainless steel.
Microprocessor digital temperature control with dual LED displays for
setpoint and actual temperatures and an illuminated bath interior with
window for viewing sample cylinders. Digital LED speed control is
provided for each stirrer.
