PETRODIST 400 CC (Potstill) combined

PETRODIST 400 CC-A represents a significant advancement in crude oil distillation analysis, combining the capabilities of two distinct ASTM methods—D2892 (TBP) and D5236 (Potstill)—into a single, automated system. PILODIST has ingeniously integrated these procedures, sharing essential components like the fraction collector, vacuum supply, and thermostats, resulting in a cost-effective and space-saving solution.
 

Key Features and Benefits

     

  • Combined TBP and Potstill Distillation: Performs both ASTM D2892 (True Boiling Point) and ASTM D5236 (Vacuum Potstill) distillations in one system.
  • Fully Automated Operation: Each distillation procedure operates fully automatically, from start to finish, including data evaluation and distillation curve generation, minimizing operator intervention.
  • Shared Components: Utilizes a shared central fraction collector, vacuum supply, and thermostats for both methods, optimizing space and cost efficiency.
  • Combined Software Evaluation: A sophisticated software package integrates the results from both TBP and Potstill distillations into a single, comprehensive evaluation report with a combined TBP curve.
  • Automatic Ambient Air Pressure Correction: Features a dual pressure sensor system for each procedure, enabling automatic correction for ambient air pressure variations, ensuring greater accuracy and consistency.
  • Customizable Options: Offers a range of customizable options to meet specific customer needs and address unique safety regulations.
