• Automatic Portable Petroleum Colorimeter

Automatic Portable Petroleum Colorimeter



The ASTM color of petroleum products applies to products having an ASTM color of 0.5 or darker, including lubricating oils, heating oils and diesel fuel oils. (For products having an ASTM color lighter than 0.5, use the Saybolt Chromometer.) To determine ASTM color, the sample is compared against standard color discs in the Petroleum Colorimeter.

Dual Ability to View Color Measurement

  • On-screen color
  • On-screen numerical display

Easy Transition from Visual to Electronic Measurements

  • Some color graders who are used to the traditional comparator series sometimes find the upgrade to an electronic system daunting. The assurance of relying on physical color difference is diminished. This transition has now been made easy with this unit.

Programmable Settings

  • Language*, date and time, and view preferences and project creation with individual tolerance settings can be easily set

On-Screen Warning System

  • Immediate reaction to results that might be out of tolerance is possible with immediate information on the sample.
  • Within tolerance = green
  • Outside tolerance = red
  • On border of tolerance = amber
