Distillation
MiniDis ADXPert
This true atmospheric distillation analyzer is extremely compact, portable and light weight and operates as a fully stand-alone unit. Designed for the quick and accurate quality control in laboratories and in the field, a distillation run on light products takes just 15 minutes and requires as little as 6 mL of sample. Because of its small size, the portable mini-distillation apparatus is the ultimate solution for places where limited or no lab-space is available.
MINIDIS ADXpert performs according to ASTM D7344, the New Mini-method for the Distillation of Petroleum Products at Atmospheric Pressure and generates detailed D86 test reports. The distillation apparatus has a resolution almost twice as good as D86 distillation units, yielding results that are well within ASTM D86 r/R requirements. The extremely versatile unit allows precise testing of various gasoline, jet fuel and diesel products (groups 0-4), biofuels, solvents, aromatics, organic liquids, chemicals and contaminated or blended samples.
Revolutionizing ASTM D86 Testing
The automatic distillation analyzer MINIDIS ADXpert is revolutionizing ASTM D86 testing. It is a true atmospheric distillation analyzer in an extremely small format. The automation significantly improves the repeatability and the reproducibility of the highly precise results. The MINIDIS offers a detailed ASTM D86 compliant report and prints and/or transmits the results via a serial PC link.
Outstanding: Highest Safety
Broken glassware is one of the major reasons for fire hazards experienced when distilling with glass flasks. Because of the rugged metal housing, the sealed metal distillation cycle and the small sample volume, the MINIDIS ADXpert does not need a fire protection system. Cheap and durable metal sample cups instead of expensive glass flasks significantly reduce consumable costs and make the MINIDIS ADXpert a perfect solution for distillation testing within challenging environments.
Full Automation for Highest Productivity
The MINIDIS ADXpert provides a complete distillation run and test report in 15 minutes (for gasoline) using only 6 mL of sample. The automatic operation involves simply placing the filling tube into the sample and pressing "RUN". No special programming of test conditions or prior distillation test knowledge is required. With the automatic sample introduction, the pre-programmed rinsing cycle and the use of disposable sample cups, any test preparation or manual cleaning of glass parts is avoided.
Unmatched versatility
Applicable for gasoline, jet fuel and diesel products (groups 0-4), biofuels, solvents, aromatics, organic liquids, chemicals and contaminated or blended samples. Fast measurements, automatic cleaning and close to no waste allow for versatile applications in laboratories, at-line or in Labs.
Problematic samples? No Problem!
Classical D86 distillation analyzers often encounter so called “problematic” samples. Mining solvents, condensates and raffinates for example cannot be measured by a D86 analyzer in most cases. MINIDIS ADXpert incorporates a versatile temperature control for a very small sample volume, which allows easy and fast heater adjustment. So even “problematic” samples can be distilled until the final boiling point is reached! The highly accurate volume detection system allows for precise and repeatable analysis of Biofuels and vegetable oils mixtures.
True Portability for All Applications
MINIDIS ADXpert performs according to the new D7344 standard for true atmospheric distillation. Results of the MINIDIS ADXpert excellently match D86, ISO 3405, IP123 and DIN51751 results. Fully automatic measurements, the temperature controlled sample introduction and a sophisticated automatic heating program eliminate sources for D86 distillation operator bias.
MINIDIS ADXpert features true portability, the rugged housing and optional 12V vehicle battery operation, making it the perfect solution for all kinds of applications, where standard laboratory instrumentation can not be applied - such as measurements in the field or in laboratories.
