New TESC-5133 with Low Energy Consumption of 320 W Power

Press Release Summary:

  • Small footprint allows installation of multiple TESC systems providing redundancy and good temperature adaptability
  • Enclosed insulated sample chamber provides a uniform, controlled temperature environment during the entire test
  • Integrating conditioning and testing processes in a self-contained unit eliminates the temperature fluctuation and variability in results associated with sample transfer and disruption

Compact, Automated Technique to ASTM D5133 Sample Conditioning and Testing

Cannon Instrument Company® introduces the TESC-5133 for use as a compact, economical alternative to ASTM D5133

State College, PA. (PRWeb) September 30, 2020 -- CANNON Instrument Company introduces a new model to the CANNON TESC lineup – model TESC-5133. The compact, economical TESC-5133 (Thermoelectric Sample Conditioner System) integrates and automates the ASTM D5133 process of conditioning and testing low temperature viscosities of engine lubricants.

Incorporating a Brookfield® DV2T digital viscometer, with an easy lift system to simplify positioning of the viscometer head, and a thermoelectrically controlled sample chamber, the TESC-5133 automates the entire conditioning and testing process, recording sample temperatures and viscosities throughout the test then computing the temperature (Gelation Index Temperature) at which there is a rapid change in viscosity (Gelation Index).

Automated thermal conditioning of the TESC-5133, from preheating to cooling, lessens the hands-on time needed to prepare and run a D5133 test and improves test precision. Integrating all conditioning and testing processes in a self-contained unit eliminates the temperature fluctuation and variability in results associated with sample transfer and disruption.

The TESC-5133 is a cost effective, ultra-compact design with low energy consumption (only 320 W power). Its small footprint, nearly one half to one fourth that of the smallest alternative unit, conserves bench space and allows installation of multiple TESC systems providing redundancy and greater temperature versatility. The Peltier solid-state thermoelectric cooling is environmentally friendly and does not require the use of hazardous CFC refrigerants or flammable bath fluids. The enclosed insulated sample chamber provides a uniform, controlled temperature environment during the entire test.
