Test Method
Used to control corrosion in product pipelines caused by moisture
condensed from gasoline and distillate fuels. Antirust properties are
determined by immersing a polished steel test specimen in a stirred
mixture of the sample and distilled water held at constant temperature.
Rust Preventing Characteristics Oil Bath
. Conforms to NACE TM-01-72, ASTM D665* and D3603* specifications
. Accommodates six sample beakers
. Microprocessor temperature control with digital display and over temperature protection
Six-place 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 NACE specifications. Microprocessor temperature control has
°C/°F switchable digital setpoint and display. Operator and equipment are
protected by an over temperature control circuit which automatically
interrupts power to the unit should bath temperature exceed a programmed
cut-off point. Stainless steel stirrer paddles are driven at 1000rpm by an
improved pulley drive-roller bearing arrangement. Paddles move to a raised
position for placement of sample beakers in the bath. Stainless steel bath
includes perforated support shelf for beakers and cover plate. 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.
