The next generation Cold Filter Plugging Point analyzer combines a patented built-in cooling system and highly precise detection mechanism into an ultra-compact, easy to use instrument. The ISL OptiFPP analyzer provides automated CFPP test in strict accordance to EN116 and EN16329 conditions. OptiFPP precisely controls jacket cooling and electronically controlled vacuum adjusts as the test specimen is drawn though a mesh filter, per method conditions. Once crystal formation inhibits sample flow within a set time, a CFPP value is detected, displayed and stored to memory. Detailed reports are available, showing any abnormal points, as well as sample temperature behavior during the test.
The Cloud Point Kit is available with a stainless steel and a glass temperature sensor. A complete measuring head with a probe, filter unit and pipet is also available for purchase.
