Portable octane analyzer is used for instant octane rating of motor gasoline, corresponding to motor and research methods (RON and MON) as well as for cetane number of diesel fuels. In addition for an inquiries, temperature rating of the analyzed liquid and diesel fuel solidification is provided. The results of measuring are displayed on the LCD.
The operational principle of the Octane Meter lies in gasoline octane rating and diesel fuel cetane rating based on the analysis of change of properties of an dielectric permeability and electromagnetic induction.
Octane analyzer has the portable compact design and is used for on-line inspection of motor fuel quality in the field and laboratory conditions. The operating conditions of the Octane analyzer usage: ambient temperature from –10C to +30C, relative humidity 80% at 25 C, atmosphere pressure 84-106kPa. The device gets power from DC elements of type AA (supply voltage 6V).

The delivery package of Octane Meter Shatox SX-100K consists of the following components:
Instrument capabilities:
Petrol breakdown time (oxidative stability). Complies with ASTM D 525.
SHATOX SX-150
New oil products grade analyzer is manufactured on the basis of advanced high precision microprocessor. The instrument can be used together with a PC a laptop through USB interface. Analyzer uses automatic computer-based calibration, saving measured data in the instrument memory with analysis date and time followed by their transfer to the PC (in Microsoft Excel or txt format). The instrument has easy of control attrition and aggressive environments resistive 8-key antiglare keyboard (made in Germany).
When determining petrol breakdown time, the petrol brand is selected in the instrument. The instrument switches to corresponding operating mode. Oxidative stability determination complies with GOST 4039-88 (ASTM D 525)
The instrument uses the timer microchip, which allows storing measurement results with analysis date and time. These data can also be transmitted to the computer.
New computer software is included into the set.
-Measurement results are reflected on computer screen in convenient form;
