Calculating Cloud and Pour Point Principle

Cloud Point

The sample is cooled lower based on the methods as the clouds appearance is noted around the silver bottom from the test jar by way of an optical sensor. The measurement is performed by reflection around the silver bottom from the test jar using a fast light detector. The signal from light detector is traded through the LabLink software. The dynamic measurement is conducted whatever the sample’s colour.

Pour Point

Based on the methods, the sample is cooled lower in a specified rate and, in the prescribed temperature times, the mechanical arm from the analyser lifts the exam jar in the cooling jacket and tilts it to be able to take it in horizontal position to check the flow from the product. The sample movement is detected through the thermal probes (PT100 recognition) placed over the sample surface which react if touched through the cooled sample.

Calculating Cloud and Pour Point Devices

  • Cloud: light pulsed emission on I.R spectrum via a coaxial fibber optic
  • Pour: platinum resistance PT100 class A
