Skydrol hydraulic fluid

Gas oil
Diesel - automotive and marine
Gasoline and kerosene

AvCount2 is a laser based particle analyser used for determining the particle
concentration in liquid fuels and oils. It can be used throughout distribution
networks and in the laboratory, in fact anywhere that requires accurate
determination of particle distribution in a liquid sample. Whether checking the
quality of fuel, filter systems or in service lubricants, AvCount2 provides fast and
precise results.
AvCount uses the light emitted by a laser to illuminate a cell through which the
sample is passed. Particles present in the sample cast a shadow onto the sensor
within the cell, and as the particle passes across the cell the voltage output of
the sensor drops. The voltage drop of the cell is proportional to the particle size
and AvCount2 calculates the size of the particle based on this principle.
Results are displayed in real time and are simultaneously printed out on the
integral printer. The test methods embedded in AvCount2 cover a range of
fuels, lubricating oils and hydraulic fluids and can be edited to create custom
test profiles. Versatile connectivity and memory management allow results to be
accessed, printed out or downloaded to a USB stick.

AvCount Verification Material (SA1006-0)

The material is a suspension of a NIST traceable medium test dust in a superclean clear, mineral based, technical oil.
AvCount Verification Material is manufactured in accordance with ISO
11171:2010 Annex F, with the exception of the use of a clear technical oil
as diluent. The certified values are statistically derived from the results of a
significant number of tests conforming to IP 565, using AvCOUNT instruments
calibrated in accordance with ISO 11171:2010, under ISO 9001 conditions.
The homogeneity and variability of the AvCount Verification Fluid is checked in
accordance with ISO Guide 35 and the essentials of ISO Guide 34.

Laboratory Instruments for quality control, analysis and calibration

FIJI FAME in Jet Instrument (SA5000-2)

ASTM D1655; Defence Standard 91-91 Issue 7, Amendment 3
IP 583; ASTM D7797 Determination of the fatty acid methyl esters (FAME) content
of aviation turbine fuel (AVTUR) by Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy Rapid screening method
All FAME types from C8 to C22 including Coconut, Mustard, Palm, Rapeseed,
Sunflower oil, Soya, Jatropha
Analysis time 20 minutes
Certified range 10150 mg/kg FAME in AVTUR
Measuring range 0-1000 mg/kg in AVTUR
Certified range 20ppm to 20% in Middle Distillates
Laboratory and field instrument
Fully automatic
Suitable for untrained operators
No cleaning solvents required
No pre-sample preparation required
50 ml sample volume
The patented Fame In Jet Instrument (FIJI) has been developed to offer the
industry a rapid and easy check on Parts Per Million (ppm or mg/kg) levels of FAME
in Aviation fuel using test method IP 583 and ASTM D7797.
FIJI uniquely utilises state of the art FTIR (Fourier Transform Infra-Red
Spectroscopy) technology and a patented sample preparation system which
allows FAME detection accuracy down to the 10mg/kg level.
FIJI can be used as a field or lab based screening tool to give a quick indication
of possible FAME contamination that may then necessitate further investigations.
The instrument can be used to prevent expensive testing and avoid costly delays
of fuel release.
The FIJI instrument is robust, extremely simple to use and is fully automatic so no
specialist operator training is involved. Tests require less than 50ml of sample and
typically take under 20 minutes. Results are presented in mg/kg units together
with an optional traffic light system for flagging FAME contamination levels of the
fuel.

FIJI (SA5000-2)

By comparison current analytical tests can take many hours, require complex
equipment and demand high skill levels.
Using a unique sample preparation module the sample is pumped at a controlled
flow rate though a proprietary disposable cartridge. The sample components are
spectrally analysed by the FTIR and a result is displayed in mg/kg and a graphical
spectrum is also shown.
The system is self-cleaning so no solvents are required. After each test the
cartridge is simply and easily replaced and the instrument is immediately ready for
the next sample.

increases the sample temperature at a rate of 2C/min and automatically dips
the ignitor every 1C up to 100C (every 2C above 100C), until either a flash is
detected or the end of test temperature is reached.

PM-93 Pensky-Martens Closed Cup Flash Point Tester (35000-0)

ASTM D93 Procedures A, B and C
IP 34 Procedures A, B and C
ISO 2719 Procedures A, B and C

Strict conformance to international test methods

Temperature range ambient +5 to 400C
Easy 3-step to test operation involving minimal operator intervention
Unique SafeFlash fire extinguishing system
Large touch screen
Single action lifting pod
Small, compact footprint
Seta Ignite - robust and long lasting ignitor
30 programmable test profiles, test methods & sample names
Rapid fan assisted cooling
Optional barcode reader available

The Seta PM-93 is a fully automated Pensky-Martens Closed Cup Flash Point
Tester which combines strict method conformance with state of the art
control technology and safety systems to provide the next generation of
automated precision flash point instruments.
Seta PM-93 provides rapid sample testing using integral heating and
forced air sample cooling systems. An intuitive user menu and 8.4
(215mm) SVGA colour touch screen operation provide unrivalled
ease of use with real time display of test progress. Large capacity
memory allows storage of test profiles, operator names, test
methods and in excess of 2000 results.
Unique test profiles enable the test to be set up and
repeated quickly without re-entering the same
information. For example, if numerous jet samples with
similar expected flash points are being tested then a test
profile can be set up and stored to memory so the user
can select this option without the need to program the
test parameters.
Operation is simple, just a single raising or lowering
action when loading or removing the test cup. The lid
and shutter are integral to a hinged pod and fitted with a
fire detection probe, fire extinguishing manifold, ignitor,
flash detector and temperature probe. The stirrer drive,
shutter actuator and ignitor dipping mechanism are also
self contained within the pod module.

PM-93 (35000-0)

A unique alignment design ensures that the lid and cup

locate perfectly every time.
The ignition source is a purpose-designed extended life hot wire, a gas
ignition option is also included. The sample temperature probe is a class A PRT and
flash detection is by a thermocouple.
An optional, unique SafeFlash fire extinguishing system (35002-0) is available which
automatically and immediately activates an extinguisher in the event of excess flame
or fire around the test cup. If discharged the screen prompts the user to re-activate
the extinguisher by simply replacing the integral inert gas canister. Canisters remain
sealed inside the instrument until pierced by the actuator mechanism.
Additional safety features include PRT checks, safety dip before starting, overtemperature cut out, gas flame relight and gas shut off.
Rapid turnaround between tests is achieved using a high capacity cooling fan and
optimised air flow.
A password protected calibration mode quickly allows verification of instrument
performance (a suitable range of traceable verification and calibration materials are
available from Seta).
Cleaning & maintenance procedures are simple. The instruments lid and shutter
can be cleaned in-situ to minimise down time between tests and a quick release
mechanism allows easy access to the lid and shutter for maintenance.
