Rust Preventing Characteristics Bath
Test Method
Determines a lubricant's ability to prevent rusting of metal surfaces.
Suitable for steam turbine oils, gear oils, hydraulic oils and other types of
inhibited mineral oils. A steel test specimen is immersed in a heated
mixture of sample oil and water which is stirred continuously during the
test. After the test period the specimen is examined for rusting. The
standard (ASTM D665) method uses a vertical specimen; the 'horizontal
disc method' (ASTM D3603) uses both horizontal and vertical test surfaces.
Rust Preventing Characteristics Oil Bath
. Conforms to ASTM D665, D3603 and NACE TM-01-72* specifications
. Accommodates six sample beakers
. Microprocessor programmable high accuracy temperature control
Constant temperature bath with stirrers for rust preventing characteristics
tests. Stirs sample-water mixtures at 1000rpm and controls temperature with
± 0.5°C (± 1°F) stability. Immerses test beakers at the proper depth per ASTM
specifications.
Microprocessor PID control provides quick temperature stabilization without
overshoot, and the bath is protected by an over temperature control circuit that
interrupts power should bath temperature exceed a programmed cut-off point.
Dual LED displays provide actual and setpoint temperature values in °C/°F
format. Communications software (RS232, etc.), ramp-to-set and other
enhanced features are available as extra cost options. Contact your Koehler
representative for information.
Stainless steel stirrer paddles are driven by a ball bearing type motor through
an improved pulley drive-roller bearing arrangement. Paddles can be raised
and lowered for placement of sample beakers in the bath. Includes test
specimens, holders and beaker covers for ASTM D665 or D3603 testing
(see specifications and ordering information). Stainless steel bath includes
perforated support shelf for beakers and two-position cover plate that adjusts
for either ASTM D665 or D3603 testing. Long-lasting polyester drive belt
improves reliability. Drive train components are protected by a removable steel
guard. All exterior surfaces have stainless steel or chemical resistant
polyurethane enamel finishes
