About the SP20 AD Systems Smoke Point Tester
The SP20 AD SystemsSmoke Point Tester is a game-changer in aviation fuel testing, providing an automated solution for determining the smoke point of kerosene and jet fuel. In aviation, fuel quality is critical for ensuring efficiency, engine longevity, and safety. The smoke point test is essential for measuring the combustion characteristics of fuels, as higher smoke points indicate better combustion performance with lower particulate emissions. Traditional smoke point measurement methods are highly manual and require skilled technicians to visually assess the flame height, making them time-consuming and prone to human error.
The SP20 revolutionises this process with its fully automated smoke point measurement system. It eliminates subjectivity by using digital imaging technology to determine the flame height with unmatched precision. The instrument is compliant with ASTM D1322, D1655, IP 598, and DEF STAN 91-091, ensuring that fuel quality assessment aligns with global industry standards.
One of the most significant advantages of the SP20 is its embedded temperature, humidity, and pressure sensors, which allow for automatic atmospheric compensation.
This innovative feature corrects for environmental variations, ensuring consistent and repeatable results, regardless of lab conditions. With its high-precision smoke point analyser capabilities, laboratories and fuel quality control facilities can reduce variability in test results, improving reliability and compliance.
The SP20 also dramatically reduces operator workload. In traditional methods, calibration involves preparing multiple fuel mixtures and manually adjusting the flame to observe the smoke point. This process can take hours and requires expert knowledge. With the SP20, the operator simply places the sample, inputs test parameters, and initiates the analysis. The system automatically stabilises the flame, captures digital images, calculates the average flame height, and records the final smoke point measurement. The results are stored in an internal database and can be printed, exported to LIMS, or transferred via USB.
Designed as an efficient dry point analysis for research labs and fuel quality testing facilities, the SP20 offers a compact, user-friendly interface with an 8-inch touchscreen. Its automated functionality enhances efficiency and precision, making it an indispensable tool for aviation fuel testing, petrochemical research, and regulatory compliance.
