Recently, the American petrochemical analytical instrument exhibition----Gulf Coast Conference was held in Galveston, Texas. Known as the OTC of the analytical instrument industry, the exhibition has attracted nearly 200 global petrochemical, refining, and experimental equipment manufacturers and service providers to participate.

As a mainstream supplier of high-precision experimental analysis instruments in China, Shenkai upholds the concept of providing fully automated solutions for product testing in the petrochemical industry, and focuses on promoting its flagship products including fully-automatic oil and gas octane number measuring machines, fully-automatic kinematic viscosity measuring instruments, automatic petroleum product flash point measuring instruments, etc. Shenkai analytical instrument has attracted the attention of many industry-leading enterprises and mainstream service providers, and its senior management personnel have come to consult and negotiate, and express their cooperation intentions.

SK-A1 Auto Automated Octane Rating Unit

SK-A1 Auto Automated Octane Rating Units are used for determining and certifying the knock rating of automotive gasoline and  liquid spark-ignition aviation fuels in terms of Motor octane number and Research octane number. The working range is from 40 to  120 octane number. With a brand new design, the SK-A1 Auto can realize one-button operation and can automatically and precisely search for the fuel level for maximum knock intensity without manual operation. The sample fuel is tested using a standardized  single cylinder, four-stroke cycle, variable compression ratio, carbureted, CFR engine run in accordance with a defined set of  operating conditions. Through the use of powerful software, high precision measurement and control components and the variety of  functional external equipments, each operator can easily,accurately and efficiently complete a test.

Test Methods: 

ASTM D2699,IP 237,EN ISO 5164,GB/T 5487 

ASTM D2700,IP 236,EN ISO 5163,GB/T 503

SKY1003-IV Automated Kinematic Viscometer

SKY1003-IV Automated Kinematic Viscometer is a fully automated, single-bath, benchtop viscometer with a 12-position sample handler for unattended and continuous viscosity testing of transparent and opaque liquids. It combines several unique features,making it the instrument of choice in many applications, ranging from QC to R&D to used oil testing. The specially designed Ubbelohde-style tube covers a 100-fold viscosity range at values between 0.5 mm2 /s and 10,000 mm2 /s from 20°C to 100 °C (with optional external chiller).

Test Methods:

ASTM D445、ASTM D446、GB/T 265、GB/T 30515、ISO 3104、ISO 3105、IP 71

SKY1002-II Automated Pensky-Martens Closed Cup Flash Point Tester

SKY1002-II Automated Pensky-Martens Closed Cup Flash Point Tester is used to detect flash point for petroleum products, residual fuel oils, biodiesels, lubricating oils, chemicals, food and beverages. Flash point tests are simply conducted by mounting the flash cup filled with sample in to the test position and selecting a pre-programmed test method. A quick search mode allows for determination of flash points for unknown samples. The flash point test result is corrected to standard pressure (101.3kPa). Innovative instrument design ensures easy, safe and accurate use of the instrument.

Test Methods:

ASTM D93、GB/T 261、ISO 2719、IP 34

This exhibition has reflected the trend of “miniaturization, integration, and low-carbon” in the future development of analytical instruments, especially the introduction of the concept of carbon footprint tracking for energy-consuming analytical instruments, which provides ideas for the future development of Shenkai analytical instruments. Shenkai will take this as an opportunity to continuously promote technological innovation in analytical instruments and provide more reliable, efficient, and sustainable product solutions for the industry.
