PETRODIST 100 CC – Automated Crude Oil Distillation System is a processor-controlled crude oil distillation system designed for fully automatic operation in strict accordance with the latest revision of ASTM D-2892 (TBP). This computer-controlled system automates the entire distillation process across multiple pressure levels, including debutanization, atmospheric distillation, and vacuum distillations at 100 Torr, 10 Torr, and 2 Torr. It is an invaluable tool for refineries and laboratories requiring high-throughput, accurate, and automated crude oil distillation analysis. Its advanced features and compliance with industry standards make it a powerful instrument for TBP determination.
Key Features
- Fully Automated Operation: Automates all stages of the distillation process, from debutanization to vacuum distillations, without operator intervention.
- Automatic Pressure Control: Manages transitions between atmospheric and various vacuum conditions automatically.
- Minimized Cooling Time: Intensive flask charge cooling and nitrogen introduction minimize intermediate cooling time between runs.
- Online Volume Measurement: Measures the volume of each fraction online before discharge into the fraction collector.
- Automatic Fraction Collection: 20-receiver fraction collector with an integrated electronic balance for weight measurement. Expandable to 80 cuts with receiver replacement.
- Flexible Fraction Collection: Receiver changes are triggered by pre-selected cut temperatures or when a receiver is full.
- Automated Data Evaluation: Final data evaluation and TBP curve generation (weight-% and volume-%) are automatically performed after the distillation, including weights of gas trap and flask residue.
- Optional Online Density Measurement: Can be equipped with an online density measurement system.
