The semi-automatic RCRT with its gas-free furnace indicates coke-forming properties by determining the amount of carbon residue left after evaporation and pyrolysis of an oil sample. It is applicable to relatively non-volatile petroleum products, which partially decompose on distillation at atmospheric pressure, like diesel fuel, motor oil, gas or crude oil.

Features

Benefits at a Glance

· Thermocouple with ceramic insulator, including certificate

· Microprocessor temperature control and overtemperature cut-off

· Heavily insulated heating block provides exceptional heat retention.

Convenient Operation

· The Ramsbottom carbon residue coking furnace consists of a solid cast-iron heating block with five wells

· The stainless steel housing is ventilated, heavily insulated and equipped with an indicating and control unit for the digital display of true temperature and heating control with the help of a thermocouple with temperature compensation

The sample is heated at 550 °C for 20 minutes in a glass coking bulb before the residue is weighed
