DYNAMIC FOAM ANALYZER
The DFA100 Dynamic Foam Analyzer measures the foamability of liquids and the stability of quickly decaying or long lasting foam based on reproducible foaming and height detection. With optional modules operating in parallel, it also measures the liquid content or analyzes the foam structure with regard to bubble size and distribution. The DFA100 supports you in optimizing foam-forming products or helps you to avoid unwanted foam formation.
FOAM TESTER FOA
The Foam Tester FOA enables the investigation of foams with regard to foam production, stability and foam decomposition.
Based on the ASTM D892 the Foam Tester FOA extends the measuring possibilities to increased pressure ranges with only insignificant changes in design. Even aqueous liquids can now be tested under pressure for their foaming behaviour at elevated, previously inaccessible temperatures of more than +100 °C.
HIGH PRESSURE FOAM ANALYZER HPFA
The HPFA High Pressure Foam Analyzer is the world’s only measuring instrument for simultaneously analyzing the amount and structure of liquid foams under high pressure. The instrument provides various options for investigating foam behavior under the real process conditions of foam-assisted flooding methods in EOR as well as hydraulic fracturing.
Oil Airation Machine (Foam)
Our FOAM (Flucon Oil Aeration Machine) is a compact aggregat which contains a 40 Liter tank (type FOAM S), that can be easily integrated into your fluid circuit as a reservoir, where it then produces consistent air-in-oil dispersions.
If you favor an external installation, with an aeration unit added to your pre-existing open reservoir, you may prefer our FOAM XL-x, which we also recommend if higher flow rates of up to 60 l/min (15 gpm) of aerated oil are required. If you need even more than that, we also offer extra-large custom FOAM units.
No matter what type of FOAM you prefer: Aeration testing is very easy with this plug-and-play unit. Simply set up a gas concentration (CG set = 0.50 – 25.00 vol.-%*) for your specific oil. The FOAM will immediately add the desired amount of dispersed gas to your fluid. This procedure will be carried out fully-automatically, with no compressed air supply required. When the gas concentration reaches the required level the “FOAM ready” lamp lights up and you can go ahead and pump the aerated oil through your circuit.
HPHT VISCOMETER
High-Pressure High-Temperature Viscometer
PSLs latest product is the High-Pressure High-Temperature Viscometer (HPHT viscometer). With this rotational viscometer the viscosity of shear rate-dependent (newtonian) fluids as well as the viscosity of shear rate independent (non-newtonian) fluids can be measured under pressures of up to 1,500 bar (21,750 psi) and temperatures up to 200 °C (392 °F).
Batch reactors with bolted yoke or clamp and screw
For applications requiring temperatures above 250°, or pressures above 300 bar, the autoclave type design with plug and screwed head is no longer suitable, either because the force exerted by the pressure is not compatible with the strength of a thread, or because the temperature imposes low compressible seals which therefore require a precise torque.
In this case, TOP Industrie designs and manufactures autoclaves with bolted heads, with a sealing ensured by Kalrez, PTFE or metal seals. In the same way as for the quick-closing autoclaves, TOP Industrie realizes an almost infinite range of diameter/height torques allowing the user to choose the volume and the H/D ratio best adapted to his experiments.
The whole range of accessories and peripherals useful to the world of research and university or industrial experimentation is available.
Equipments :
- Magnetically coupled stirrers,
- Heating by heating collar, oven or double jacket,
- Cooling at the end of the cycle, or in case of exothermicity by Vortex or coil type circulation.
- Pressurization and regulation, transfer and management of fluids, liquids, gases, powder.
- Injection and sampling of gases and liquids.
- Filters, separators, catalyst baskets.
- Mounting on aluminium profile frame or with pneumatic or hydraulic lift.
- Complete control of the whole unit by touch screen or LabVIEW development on PC.
- Pressure measurement, temperature control, stirring speed control, flow measurement, gas consumption...
CGS Inline Aeration Meter
The CGS (Concentration Gas System) is an inline measuring system for the continuous determination of the gas content in fluids. The system works regardless of the size and shape of the entrained gas portions in the
fluid. Therefore both finely dispersed microbubbles as well as large air pockets can be detected correctly in the passing medium, with their percentage by volume displayed in real time.
The following parameters are determined by the CGS:
• temperature (−30 °C to 150 °C)
• pressure (max. 10 bar)
• gas content CGp at measured pressure
• gas content CG0 at atmospheric pressure (recalculation according to the ideal gas law)
E-Lub Tester
The E-Lub Tester determines the ohmic resistance and capacitance of your rolling bearing, thus of the lubricant used therein, under real operating conditions applied by the FBT four-ball tester.
For this, a high-precision impedance measurement is used, which was developed based on flucon's EPSILON+ laboratory instrument.
In addition, the E-Lub Tester enables EDM breakdown currents to be analyzed under a defined electrical load on the bearing so that the performance of greases and oils in rolling bearings can be specifically investigated under variable operating conditions (lubricant temperature, speed, load).
Key features
- determination of the lubricant impedance in rolling bearings
- suitable for axial roller bearings (type 51208) and radial ball bearings (type 6008)
- determination of ohmic resistance and capacitance
- EDM analysis (short-circuit-Scan): measurement of electrical breakdowns and ohmic currents during operation
- variable operating parameters: E-Lub Tester: lubricant temperature (automatic control), electrical load (common-mode voltage); FBT: running time, speed, load (all relevant data is stored in the program)
- automated measuring programs
- includes intuitive software for control and measurement with a Windows PC
- includes impedance calibrator
EPSILON+ for the measurement of dielectric fluid properties (Conductivity, Permittivity, DDF)
EPSILON+ is a compact laboratory measuring device that is used for the precise measurement of the complex fluid impedance, based on DIN IEC 60247 (own DIN test standard coming soon). This reliable system determines the following parameters:
- Specific Electrical Conductivity
- Relative Permittivity / Dielectric Constant ε r
- Dielectric Dissipation Factor (DDF) tan δ
Equilibrium Sapphire Cell apparatus for CO2 rich mixtures studies
Low temperature VLE measurements can be studied using a stirred equilibrium cell, consisting of a stirred sapphire tubular cell mounted between two Hastelloy C276 or Titanium flanges. This experimental facility has been designed for working temperatures between 200 and 470 K and pressures up to 20 MPa.
In this device, known quantities of substances (liquids, liquefied gases or gases) can be injected into the cell with the help of measuring pumps (PMHP) and very precise gas tanks from Top Industrie. Two ROLSI™ micro samplers, one for the liquid phase and one for the vapor phase, are installed at the top of the cell. Due to the very small sample volume (e.g. < 0.1 μl), the equilibrium inside is not disturbed and samples can be taken from the different phases and analyzed directly by GC.
For precise pressure measurement, three sensors are connected to the cell and heated to a constant temperature. The temperature is measured directly in the cell using Pt100. ature est mesurée directement dans la cellule à l’aide de Pt100.
