Seta Oil Test Centrifuge – 4 place – 90000-3

The Seta Oil Test Centrifuge is a heated chamber centrifuge used to determine water and sediment in oils. The large diameter chamber, with four place rotor and cushioned adaptors, allows the use of 6 and 8-inch conical, pear-shaped, trace sediment and 12.5 ml tubes.

The swing-out rotor ensures that samples are held near vertical when at rest, allowing precise measurement of sediment. The centrifuge features a hinged lid that opens to the fully upright position to allow easy loading and unloading of tubes between tests.

Speed, temperature, and timing are microprocessor controlled. Run parameters are entered via a liquid-proof ‘touch panel’ and digital display.

Features

  • Isothermal heaters fitted internally to the centrifuge chamber
  • Temperature control using a unique algorithm to compensate for air resistance heating
  • 4 place swing out rotor
  • Static, near vertical bucket positioning
  • Specifically designed for testing oils
  • Heated chamber, ambient to 80 °C
  • Pre-heat facility to ensure the bowl is at test temperature prior to the test
  • Universal buckets for 12.5 ml, 6 and 8-inch glassware
  • Microprocessor control with 99 memories
  • Optional trolley

Precise heating for accurate results
Isothermal heaters fitted internally to the centrifuge chamber give precise temperature control to within +/-1 °C.

Fast and easy operation
9 program memories allow a user to configure the instrument to operate automatically to the specified test parameters, saving time, easing operation, and assisting repeatability. A ‘Quick Run’ mode allows short runs of up to 99 seconds.

Safety features
A motor-driven lid latch with a safety interlock prevents the centrifuge operation while the lid is unlocked. Imbalance detection and over-temperature protection protect the motor and chamber from damage.

Setafuge Hazard Reduction System
The optional Setafuge Hazard Reduction System (90010-0) can be fitted into the centrifuge to extract vapors from the chamber and significantly reduce vapor hazards.
